S3 Access Denied!

Thanks, I didn’t see your comment until now. Turns out re-uploading a file can reset S3 access if you’re not careful.

On 55:50 you said: “if variable isset and variable is not empty do something- such a pain…” – could you please expand that statement, what is a “pain” and how you want it to be?

@Petr, I didn’t find that statement around 55:50, maybe it was discussing how nice the null coallesce operator is?
Instead of doing this:
if (!isset($_GET[‘x’]) && empty($_GET[‘x’])) { $x = 10}
It allows you do do this
$x = $_GET[‘x’] ?? 10;
