Conflict with Shield Security plugin

    Hi,

    I’m hoping you can help me with a bug/conflict with our plugin.

    It seems that this plugin is causing trouble with our Shield Security plugin session checking.

    The problem is this:

    • While editing a post/page, SmartCrawl is doing wp_remote_get() request for the action ‘wds-frontend-check’. It’s drawing on the cookie data from the current user session.
    • But it’s filtering out all cookies that aren’t “considered relevant”. i.e. only keeping those cookies that begin with wp-/wordpress-
    • This is stripping out our Shield Security session cookie.
    • This leads to the user being logged-out of their original session and having to log-in again.

    Could I ask you to please stop stripping out all other cookies except WP- specific cookies.

    The exact place to fix this is:

    file: /includes/core/class-wds-core-request.php
    lines: 46-54
    function: get_rendered_post()

    Many thanks!
    Paul.

    Hi @wpmudevsupport13

    So it seems there’s been a release or 2 since this post but no follow up.

    Can you let me know if this is something you’re going to address?

    Many thanks,
    Paul.

    Hello there @paultgoodchild

    This is indeed pushed to our developers in order to investigate and provide a fix in a future release, even though this isn’t included yet to any of the latest updates, as these were actually packed & tested already.
    I really can’t provide any estimated time of the release that will include this fix, if there’s any other development on this though, we’ll keep you posted here.

    Thank you,
    Dimitris
