 * Hi Matt,
 * Are you getting an error code when you click “Install” on step 2? Also can you
   copy and paste the “Tech Support Information” block that appears below in the
   Troubleshooting Guide section?
 * Thanks,
 * Schuyler

 * Hi G-Dog….I have the same issue. When I click install on step 2 nothing happens.
   When you say Tech support information block….do you mean the blue area or the
   codes with yellow highlights under that area?

    Will

 * Yes…it says step one is a success…and no, I am not getting the spinner when I
   click install for step 2.
 * Regarding the info wp version info…it states that the file was created and ok.

 * If the cache directory can be created, you should be able to do the full install.
   A new version was released earlier today, that simplifies the install into one
   step. If you update the plugin and run the install again, it should work for 
   you. If you do have any issues, it will give you an error code to look up in 
   the troubleshooting guide.

 * Hey GDog…yes, it does install ok now. I ran into a couple more issues though:
 * 1. When I did a test registration as a new user the form submit took 73 seconds.
   It is a gravity form and normally after hitting submit it only takes 2-3 seconds
   to redirect as per the form instructions.
 * 2. I’m using a sidebar login/logout. While I can log in…when I navigate to a 
   different page from the one I logged in on I am not showing a logged in status.
 * 3. The http stuff: does this happen automatically? Or do I need to manually place
   this stuff in my functions file? I am on a dedicated server with apache nginx.
 * Regards
    Will

 * 1) GatorCache does nothing with POST requests and would not effect Gravity Forms.
   There’s nothing in the cache plugin that would produce the behavior you described.
 * 2) Ditto here, and it does nothing when a user is logged in, will not cache pages
   if a user is logged in, unless you add the role to the exceptions in the user
   settings.
 * 3) Nope, you have to manually configure that. Plugins writing to htaccess is 
   not a good thing.
