SJB and WPML

    Hi,
    SJB is creating issues with the WPML transaltion plugin, by messing with the directory URL option. I have a multilingual website and I am putting the second language in a folder. However, for some weird reason, SJB keeps changing some values in the .htaccess file and breaks the second language version of the site.

    This is what the support from WPML told me:

    I have been testing your site locally and it seems that ‘Simple Job Board’ is messing with .htaccess. I noted that this file is was being modified.

    It changed:

    1
    RewriteRule . /milaha/index.php [L]
    for

    1
    RewriteRule . /milaha/ar/index.php [L]
    If have installed WordPress in a different directory (/milaha).

    Then I disabled the plugin and everything was fine.

    This plugin has this class simple-job-board/includes/class-simple-job-board-rewrite.php that try to avoid hotlinking modifying the .htaccess file, but when directories for languages are selected, it seems to fail.

    Please, ask your developer to disable the plugin and test if everything works OK. It the plugin cause the 500 error, you should remove writable permissions to the .htaccess file.

    Thank you for your reply.
    I have removed this part from the “class-simple-job-board-rewrite.php” file and so far the plugin works fine with WPML without breaking the site. That said, since I am not expert, I am afraid I may have disabled some key functionality from the plugin.

    // Appending rules in .htaccess
    if (file_exists($root_path . ‘.htaccess’) && is_writable($root_path . ‘.htaccess’)) {

    $forcedownload_rule = explode(“\n”, $forcedownload_rule);

    // Anti-Hotlinking Rules Writing in .htaccess file
    if (!function_exists(‘insert_with_markers’)) {
    require_once( ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/misc.php’ );
    }

    // Remove Hotlinking Rules
    insert_with_markers($root_path . ‘.htaccess’, ‘Hotlinking’, ”);

    /* Revert File Permission */
    if (!empty($file_existing_permission)) {
    chmod( $root_path . ‘.htaccess’, $file_existing_permission );
    }
    }

    So guys, it would be great if you can look into this and, if possible, send me an updated “class-simple-job-board-rewrite.php” to upload on my site. I like your plugin and I do not want to end up removing it because of this issue.

    Thanks,
