Hello,

Lock/Unlock permissions set write permissions to users. It's ok for most of providers but mine have this security rule :
- scripts or directories with write permissions for users or groups can't be accessed. The script execution is made with suexec and my personnal FTP account.

So when unlocking files forum i can't access any more to the forum. Maybe you could add a "mask" to indicate which rights have to be changer when locking/unlocking.

An add in the documentation about this particular case would be usefull (for me Very Happy

).

In my case i think there is no need to lock/unlock, security is ok even if owner can write files, but with an option the "lock" menu could be hidden which avoid a lot of problems and questions for newbies like me.

Thank's Cool
