plugin writes to wp-content/plugins/pdf-image-generator

    Hi,

    I found while installing this plugin and testing it, that it writes to wp-content/plugins/pdf-image-generator during the activation process. The problem with this is that most installs do not allow the apache user to write to that location for security reasons. I suggest trying to write to /tmp instead.

    Matthew.

    Hi Matthew.

    Thank you for pointing it out. It’s very precise.

    I should change the activation process to make a temporary directory and generate jpg file in it.

    I’m a bit tied up, but I will fix it as soon as possible.

    I decide to comment out the process of generating a test file.

    Because, it doesn’t relate to the function of the plugin itself.

    Sometimes, creating a folder can cause problems, and it’s difficult to reproduce the same situation. Keeping the function simple is good for the plugin.

    Thank you very much for the feedback!
