In reply to: [User Access Manager] UAM makes serving images horribly slowHi, seeing your post it reminded me to report back. By using the Media Manager to create different folders to keep locked files in, and moving the generated .htaccess rules to those folders instead (have to make sure paths are correct) I was able to get it working like I wanted. It would be good to see a note about slow page serving in the option to lock files; it took me a long time to figure out that this was the cause of my problems. Or options to implement some of these workarounds in the next version. At any rate, thanks for putting out the plugin!

In reply to: [User Access Manager] UAM makes serving images horribly slowHi,
I have been having major issues with this as well. I think the problem lies in that all the files in the uploads directory are being passed through the .htaccess redirect, and this is preventing cacheing. If it’s possible to create a folder in the media area only for locked files, and put the .htaccess that checks locks in that folder only it seems like the rest of the images could be cached as normal. I am going to try using a combination of this plugin and a Media Manager plugin that allows for the use of different folders to see if I can achieve faster loading. I’ll check back in to let you know how it goes!
Follow up: After digging in the code a little I am thinking that the reason it is not passing the patch test is because my test server is on linux but the production one is on windows (doesn’t make sense, I know, but that’s what I’m working with). The function that tests the patch looks for linebreaks \n\t\t\t and tabs as part of a string comparison and I think those are coming out differently from the windows machine.
However, if I alter this function to just return true no matter what ( wpbb_validate_user2_patched on common-functions.php line 552) I can get it to pass the test however I still cannot login/logout of the forum.
Thoughts?
