Josh, did you find a solution that is ACF compatible?

I’m having the same problem. Have you made any progress on this jasjoerii?

When will the new release come out? I’m clearing out my tmp folder every hour and it’s filling up VERY fast.

I wouldn’t want to do that since I want WordPress, W3 Total Cache and WP Better Security to be able to modify it for their own functionality. I received an email from the plugin developer with an updated version of the plugin that will fix this bug.

Never mind! Found the line to change in code:
Line 11 of console.php for those that are curious.

I’m sorry if I offended you. As I said, the plugin seems to be designed well and I do appreciate your work on it. I assume the “how to be patient” statement is in regards to the last support question I posted which took a week to get a response. I was actually referring to a prior support request which was posted here, in the Google group, and directly emailed to you in November 2012 that never got any response whatsoever.

Just to be clear, I’m not holding you responsible to provide support for this plugin in any way. You provided a great resource for free and I really do appreciate it. There’s no need to post a warranty or limitation of liability…no one is suing you!

The WordPress community is wonderful and the open source effort is a beautiful ideal. Part of that ideal is sharing what we learn with others. There are close to a dozen plugins offering the functionality of this plugin. I chose this plugin based on the review of another developer that I trusted. I committed a good amount of time to integrating it into the site of a client and signed off on it with my own seal of approval. Then it broke and no one was able to help me. Obviously this makes me look bad to my client and now I have to spend the time integrating an alternative.

This isn’t the end of the world and it doesn’t leave me holding any ill will towards you. But of course I’m going to share my experience with the rest of the community so that others can factor it into their own decisions when choosing a social login plugin.

I can only imagine how much time you spent on this plugin so I understand how frustrating reading this review must have been. But it’s all part of the grand mission of the WordPress project and all open source projects and I really hope that you don’t take it personally.

All the best.

Hate to bump this up but this is affecting a live website. Anyone else receive this error or have any ideas on what could be causing it?

Hi Scott,
I’m still having trouble excluding one particular directory. Every other directory is excluding fine except for this one. On a near daily basis I get the following email:

Files Removed:
/wp-content/themes/dailyedition/cache/index.html
/wp-content/themes/dailyedition/cache/timthumb_cacheLastCleanTime.touch
/wp-content/themes/dailyedition/cache/timthumb_int_18252e00fee73a40a7e7aeb9d1f2d729.timthumb.txt

However my Dirs/Files To Ignore contains the following path:

/home/connec23/public_html/wp-content/themes/dailyedition/cache/*

My home path is:
/home/connec23/public_html

Can you please tell me what I’m doing wrong? Thanks for your help!

I understand, thanks. You should really update the documentation as this is not at all intuitive and clearly a lot of people are having the problem. Given that I specified the document root in the field above it, I would think that it would automatically be used for any other paths specified. Thanks and keep up the good work!

Hi I can’t seem to get this plugin to exclude folders. I have the following in my exclude list:
/wp-content/w3tc/*
/wp-content/uploads/*
/wp-content/cache/*
/wp-content/w3tc-cache/*
/error_log
/wp-content/managewp/backups/*

and yet I still get notified daily of changes to files within these folders. What am I doing wrong? I never had problems excluding folders in WordPress File Monitor (pre-fork).

Another piece of feedback…shortcodes are supposed to return content not output it. Otherwise the content does not get displayed in within the flow of the post rather at the top. I wrote my own shortcode to display the login buttons properly:

function output_social_login($atts)
{
	ob_start();
	do_action( 'wordpress_social_login' );
	$output = ob_get_clean();
	return $output;
}
add_shortcode('social_login','output_social_login');

This would be huge. +1!

I found a panel to turn off WPEngine’s built in caching. Activation worked. This should be highlighted on the plugin’s description.

I am getting the same error on WPEngine. The plugin worked fine when running it locally but I had the exact same error when trying to install it on my host (WPEngine). I’m not using a caching plugin but WPEngine has caching built in. I’m not sure it can be turned off.

I need the emails to notify me. I have this plugin installed on over a dozen sites so I can’t log into each daily to see if any files have changed. It would be great if this notification system could be cleaned up to remove all the false positives (for example from updating a plugin) and blank emails. Thanks!
