Hey Guys,

Great plugin. Well worth the money and I will be recommending it in the future.

Couple of things about the install documentation. While it may not be an issue for most users, some of your more "newb" ones may have difficulty with the different case used in some places. Especially when referring to unix/linux/bsd whatever servers.

Some that I noticed:

"WFReview" should be "wfreview"

"WP-Content" should be "wp-content" and

"License.txt" should be "license.txt"

Oh, and you may want to note the ION cube installation instructions in there somewhere or a link to ion's site. While not too much of a PITA some of the more newb users may like it too. For example on my ubuntu + lighttpd box, I had to just create /etc/php5/conf.d/ion.ini and put the load extension line and point it to your .so you included. Then restart lig and all was well. Same would apply with apache I believe as well, and probably nginx too.

Thanks,
OA

These are all excellent points. For the install doc, I'll update that this morning. I agree that the IonCube needs more detail. To be honest, with so many types of distros out there and so many hosts, I had planned on adding documentation as cases came in, otherwise there's no way I could detail how it works on each host.

Excellent suggestions, thank you, we'll implement them today!

Cool, I also noticed one other on the install doc - I think "Upload" was also in uppercase when it should be lowercase.

I hear ya on the ioncube - a link to their website would probably suffice instead of trying to maintain anything distro specific (or, perhaps a wiki with a few config options for users to go from down the road)
