My website server provider has recently decided to update their servers and restrict access to imagemagick, so I can no-longer add the path to it in my vb options.
I contacted them regarding this and they said that ImageMagick is no longer fully funtional because they have to open certain features within PHP that are a security risk. So instead they are using a workaround, rather than using the convert binary using exec you now have to use an API called MagickWand (which is based on ImageMagic 6.3.5 or greater ( www.magickwand.org (http://www.magickwand.org) )
This obviously doesn't help me when I'm setting up image verification on new registrations as I no-longer have a path to imagemagick.
I don't really want to change suppliers as I've been with them for a long time and I've got a good deal running with them but this is annoying to the extreme. Is there any workaround to get vbulletin using magickwand instead of imagemagic?
If not, can anyone recommend a good UK cheap website provider?
