Frequently asked questions.
Can this work on external files?
If they are on the same physical / virtual server as your WordPress installation, yes.
Can I monitor files over HTTP / HTTPS?
No. PHP is NOT able to access / ascertain what time a file has been modified over HTTP(S)
Can I monitor more than 20 files?
Not in this version of the plugin. We’re working on an update that will allow virtually unlimited files though (stay tuned).
Can I use relative paths?
Yes, but it’s not as reliable. We recommend absolute paths.
How do I find an absolute path?
Typically you can work this out by logging in to your website’s Server Control Panel (cPanel, Parallels, Odin, Plesk, etc), and working through the file system, there.
