 Hello,

I would like to ask you. I use Admin Tools and Jotcache. I would like to ask you if plugin Admin Tools must be first in system plugines?

Jotcache has plugin Jotmarker and to work OK, plugin Jotmarker must be and the first place but I have plugin Admin Tools on the first place. Can I put plugin system Admin tools on the second position? Will it work?

thank you

Hello Radek,

if you put Admin Tools as second plugin, this means that you won't be protected by any attack that is targeting Jot cache and the url it stored.
I think you can safely move JOT Cache as second plugin, after all you want to block any attack, regardless they are asking for a cache page or not.

OK. Thank you for the explanation but I do not understand it much (I do not very understand the last half of the last sentence). Jotcache writes that if it is not on the first place, it will not work properly.

Thank you.

If you don't set Admin Tools as first plugin, you won't be completely protected.
Attackers can try to exploit Jot Cache plugin to retrieve information. You can set Admin Tools as second plugin to run, but you won't be 100% protected.
