No. Was this so hard to check for yourself?

Already did and people mention there was a bug with it, so aka should be there in order to be able to be bugged.

I suppose you could put them in a secure room?

Yeah that works, just someone on the server I am on, asked why we didn't just enable pincodes/locks to forges etc so people could build open bases. Been trying to find the command to put in the server, all I managed to find was people talking about it being bugged (long time ago) so wanted to give it a go and see if it was still bugged.

Incorrect. There is a way, but the server admin must use a command line argument to do so. It's automatically enabled on Official PVE servers. Official PVP players have be get a little creative in securing goods. ie: secured room. The common bug around this is that it only works on structures placed AFTER the command is in place. Existing structures will say they are locked, but are not actually secure. Demolish, replace, secured. I have not tested this recently to see if this is still an issue.

To enable, put this in the command line:

ForceAllStructureLocking=true

2) ?ForceAllStructureLocking=true in command line of the server (also: as always just 1 little checkbox if you use ark server manager)

The new option to lock fridges, smithy, fabricator etc works only on newly placed items not on the old ones. Is this going to get fixed? Or do we have to replace everything in order to lock it?
Please, answer, I don't want to replace everything, if it gets fixed. If it doesn't, I want to start replacing it as soon as possible.

Confirmed. It will not work retroactively.

Question to both of you really. Sorry bit slow in understanding. Does ForceAllStructureLocking=true need to be placed in GameUserSetting.ini, Game.ini, OR in the Server console?

it needs to be in the .bat which starts your server. you need to start the server with this commandline
