    I’ve got a warning in WP Query Monitoring that I did not notice before:

    Warning file_get_contents(https://www.cnx-software.com/wp-content/uploads/wpo//directory-index/): Failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden 1

    Not sure yet if it impacts the operation of the plugin.

    @cnxsoft Please contact your host and set permission to 0755 to /wp-content/uploads/wpo/directory-index/ folder.

    Thanks. But I think the problem is not about file permissions.

    # chmod 755 directory-index/ -R
# ls -l directory-index/*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 www-data www-data 1 Jun  6 12:03 directory-index/index2.html
-rwxr-xr-x 1 www-data www-data 1 Jun  6 12:03 directory-index/index.html

    I still have the same issue. The previous permissions were 664. I think it’s because the plugin tries to list the files in a directory through http, instead of accessing the file system directly?

    @cnxsoft Though it won’t impact the operation of the plugin, where do you see these warnings in WordPress admin or error log files?

    @bornforphp In Query Monitor, when I browse the website as a logged-in user.

    @bornforphp Thanks. I’ve noticed some slow response time in Google Search Console in the last few days around the time I started to see this error. I’m not sure it’s related, but I assume if the plugin makes a call to a webpage it may delay loading times? I’ll have to investigate whether it’s related to WPOptimize or not.

    @cnxsoft Its not related to WP-Optimize, Have you performed a conflict test yet?

    Try deactivating all plugins except for WP-Optimize and see if it is resolved.

    If so, reactivate each plugin one at a time until you find the culprit. You can check for the issue between activating each plugin, so you can see which one is causing problems.

    Please let us know your findings.

    If I disable all plugins I have to wait for four days for Google Search Console to update stats, and it would cause issues with the website. I have to find another way to test.

    @cnxsoft You can create a staging site and test on the staging site?

    @bornforphp I have some smaller websites that I could check. They don’t suffer from the issue, maybe the settings are different.

    For what it is worth, when I look at the plugin code, it shows it was updated on June 6:

    After June 5, three plugins were updated:
    June 6: wp-optimize
    June 8: ewww-image-optimizer and wp-super-cache

    So I guess I should focus on those three. The problem started on June 6, but I can’t remember if the June 8 plugins were updated before that.

    I do updates manually. How can I get the previous version of WP-Optimize? I’d like to downgrade to see if it makes any difference?

    @cnxsoft Please go here: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/wp-optimize/

    And click on Advanced view on the right hand side: https://prnt.sc/4vHxi0rIIHn_

    Once you are on Advanced View page scroll down to Previous version and select 3.2.3 from the dropdown: https://prnt.sc/3A8wBmSOKNyb

    @bornforphp Thank you. I’ve just downgraded now (June 18).
    The warning is gone, and I’ll check the Google Search report in about four days to see if anything has changed with response times.
