# wp-content folder issue

 * For security reasons, I renamed my wp-content folder. This plugin generated 404
   errors, after some inspections I found this plugin were trying to read a file:
   /
   wp-content/plugins/widgets-on-pages/wop.css
 * Hope this issue will be fixed soon, many WP users are not using the default wp-
   content folder.

 * Hey Handaoko,
 * Thank you very much for the tip-off… looks like I’ve been lazy with my path definitions.
   I shall look to update this in the future release.
 * You can probably make a quick change if you want it to work with your current
   setup… let me know if you want a hand with this.
 * Ta,
    Todd

 * Thanks for offering help.
 * I’m not good in programming, so I took the less risky way. I simply created a
   folder name wp-content and copied/pasted the plugin into it. It works without
   any problem.
 * But I’m afraid others may not know it so they can’t use this plugin together 
   with for example Better WP Security plugin which may change default WP wp-content
   folder name.
