PHP’s ip2long likes to return signed long values. If your IP equates to a negative value, MySQL ends up storing a number that equates to something like “255.255.255.255.212.4.126.43”.
MySQL has two internal functions INET_ATON and INET_NTOA to work around this. In the BAStats_logger.php file, change line 92 to….

$qry .= “INET_ATON(‘” . $_SERVER[‘REMOTE_ADDR’] . “‘)”;

… and the problem should go away.

If you are getting the background image then you have installed the plugin correctly. My guess is that this problem stems from a font problem with ImageMagick, but I don’t know for sure. I would suggest downloading an older/newer version if IM and reconfiguring SecureImage to use convert.exe from the other version and see if the problem persists.

It took a while, but I managed to get a Win32/Apache/MySQL/WP1.5 system up and running thinking that this issue was limited to Windows sytems. Unfortunately, the plugin worked normally. What version of ImageMagick are you running?

SecureImage 1.0rc2 has been posted. Windows machines didn’t like the command line that the plugin was generating for ImageMagick. This resulted in a challenge image without text, making the plugin pretty much useless! I changed the quotes around and it seems to be working for both OS’s now. Enjoy.

Are you running WP on Windows? I think there is a font problem that needs to be investigated. If I get some time, I plan to install ImageMagick on my XP machine and see if I can track the problem down. Thanks for the feedback.

I had a similar problem. RSS worked before, but 1.5 broke the feed. I downloaded the fixed wp-blog-header.php file, but it still didn’t work. After running the link through a verifier, it turned out that I had an old article that was causing the feed to fall out of compliance. The article had single quotes ‘ in it. When they were fed though the generator, the single qotes showed up as ? question marks. After changing them to double quotes, the feed came up in Feedreader without any trouble.
