Simple Pie RSS plugin missread problem

  • when I activate I get this error:

    No, WordPress’ default cache directory does not exist! — Please make sure that a cache directory exists (and is writable) at [wordpress install]/wp-content/cache.

    the folder cache is there and is writable so what’s the dealio?

  • Hi, I just came across this and (seem to have) fixed it by editing the file ‘simplepie_wordpress_2.php’ in the plugin’s directory. On line 64 there’s a line that reads:
    define('SIMPLEPIE_CACHEDIR', WP_CONTENT . '/cache');
    Change this to:
    define('SIMPLEPIE_CACHEDIR', DOCROOT . WP_CONTENT . '/cache');
    For clarity, the additional code is “DOCROOT .”

    I’m still testing it but it seems to have done the trick. If everything’s working by the end of today, I’ll suggest the change to the author. Hope this helps.

    Many thanks! Worked great!
