    Hi

    I am using WP Super Cache and made the changes to the file as advised.

    I have since proceeded to update the settings menu and upon saving changes i received the following error messages. Although i did also get the message that the options had been updated.

    Can some help?

    Thanks

    Jon

    If you know that the URL is correct then you can ignore that error message (it will not harm your site). It is just checking to see if the URL is correct or not but since your site does not have the the URL access for fopen enabled the method used to perform the URL validation check is failing. Which is why it is showing that error. Your users won’t see that error (it is only for the admin).

    I just added another modification to this check which tries to go around this by using a different method of checking. Please get a new build of the affiliate plugin from here and let me know if it works better on the new version:
