[Plugin: WP Minify] Suggestion for fix

Hi,

I have moved my blog to new webhosting and encountered that plugin WP Minify is causing troubles. After bit of investigation I have found that it is writing warnings to the beggining of cached CSS and JS files and of course this cause them not to work…

Warning:  is_file() [function.is-file]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/www/wp-content/plugins/wp-minify/cache//minify_e03b2626b13f10850a58a589f03a6655) is not within the allowed path(s): (/data/web/virtuals/18342/virtual) in /data/web/virtuals/18342/virtual/www/wp-content/plugins/wp-minify/min/lib/Minify/Cache/File.php on line 71

I have changed the is_file() call in both places to not produce warnings and then the plugin works fine. Here is the diff for file /wp-minify/min/lib/Minify/Cache/File.php for the fix:

33c33
<         if (is_file($this->_path . '/' . $id)) {
---
>         if (@is_file($this->_path . '/' . $id)) {
71c71
<         return (is_file($file) && (filemtime($file) >= $srcMtime));
---
>         return (@is_file($file) && (filemtime($file) >= $srcMtime));

I understand that the problem is partly caused by security settings on the webhosting provider side, but as this simple fix solved it in the plugin, I suggest that the fix is put into the plugin trunk and used, so it does not cause problems on any webhosting.

Take care, Honza
