    First off, great product. v impressive.

    BUT (always a but), I have a serverside p/w set up my wp-admin folder and the plugin seems to require something in there to run its auto updates.

    In other words I get the serverside authorisation at the end of the page load as its requesting a page refresh. When i disable auto updates the problem stops.

    Any ideas?

    This’ll affect any plugin that uses WordPress’s built in AJAX mechanisms – the only way to get round it is to either exclude admin-ajax.php (yes, it’s called admin-ajax.php even though it’s used for non-admin requests as well) from your password protection, or to use Meteor
