Quick question about Quick Cache

I am using your Quick Cache plugin to increase site speed on our S2Member installation. I noticed that setting DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT to true in wp-config interferes with the ability to change Quick Cache settings in the admin screen. My question is whether DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT affects the functionality of Quick Cache or just the ability to change Quick Cache settings.

Thank you for your inquiry.

I’m unsure about this setting, I’m going to forward this to Jason (Lead Developer) for his input.

Thanks for your patience.

Here is his reply:

It only affects the ability for Quick Cache to alter it’s configuration; it does not hinder the functionality.

DISALLOW_FILE_MODS or DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT are both PHP Constants that can be defined in any WordPress® installation to prevent files from being modified programmatically; so long as plugins respect these constants.

The constants also affect s2Member. However, they only affect s2Member with respect to Multisite patches. If you run a Multisite Network with DISALLOW_FILE_MODS or DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT on; s2Member will refuse to implement it’s Multisite patches automatically for you. You have to do them manually.

Thanks so much.
