Problem with exec()

    Hello,

    I use the webhoster All-Inkl which has disabled exec() function by default.
    But it can be activated for a whole folder by using a .htaccess files which will parse the .php files in the folder as cgi. So I used the .htaccess (AddHandler php54-cgi .php).

    But the plugin still tells me to activate the exec() function.

    When I use the .htaccess file in the whole wordpress folder, the plugin is working. But I dont want my whole site be parsed with cgi.

    So my question is, in which folder I need to activate the cgi parsing, so that ewww image optimizer is running fine.

    Thanks

    The nature of wordpress is that the plugin files are loaded by the core wordpress files. I suspect that there is no way to get only the php files for ewww-image-optimizer to use exec, without it being enabled for the entire wordpress install. The proper folder to try would be wp-content/plugins/ewww-image-optimizer/. If that doesn’t work, then there is no way around it without serving your whole site via cgi, or using the EWWW Cloud service.

    Ahh I suspected this case.

    Thanks for the tip with Cloud Service.
