Hello, I am using the latest versions of both of the above components.
In AdminTools' HTACCESS maker, if I enable the Front-End Protection function, it prevents RokSprocket module images from displaying. Is this a known issue? I have been able to easily replicate this on all the sites I use.
HTACCESS maker
Server protection
---Protection Toggles
Front-end protection (YES / NO)
In HTACCESS maker, there is an area to add (Allow direct access, including .php files, to these directories). Would you be able to tell me what specifically I should add in relation to RokSprocket?
I am not attaching a site url as none of the sites have the option enabled currently as it disables alot of the images. - Last Edit: 8 years 4 months ago by Michael.

Have a look at the messages in the console when the images are not showing - you're probably gett 403 forbidden, this will tell you what directory/file that you need to allow an exception for in htacess maker.

Hi Mr. T.
I tried that but it comes up with the JPG images themselves and not anything else. I did put the path to those images in the HTACCESS maker, but no effect. Any other ideas?
I put a link to a page affected by this on the secure tab.
Thanks again.
UPDATE : Going by Akeebabackup forums, there is a cache handler on RokSprocket, and that needs to be added to create an exception. I don't seem to be able to find the file(s) responsible for the cache handler. Can you point me in the right direction?
Thanks

I added this as the exception and it seems to be working now.
cache/mod_roksprocket
I will mark it as solved after some more testing if there is no more issues.
Thanks again.

You should actually have the exception on the cache folder - other things will write to that too (not just roksprocket).
Is your issue now solved? If so, please EDIT your FIRST POST in this thread by adding [SOLVED] at the start of the title and then select the TICK icon. This lets the moderators know that it can be moved to the solved section.
