Is there an option to hide/edit clock? I can't find it.

it's in the "Locker Widgets" settings, you can edit/change to other widgets as you like.

"sdcard/.c lock screen/backup"

I purchased the C-Locker pro version a few days ago and have finally settled down from playing with the plethora of options.

I have almost completely replaced DashClock Widget as my preferred Locker replacement. The exception is when docked or charging DashClock Widget can be used in Daydream mode. If C-Lock could be used in daydream mode I could get rid of this redundant app. If using desktop Widgets stops C-Locker from being used in Daydream mode I would like to suggest at least supporting C-Locker widgets but allow that set of widgets to be marked as Daydream specific.

I use eWeather widgets on the C-Locker lock screen and that was the number one reason (desktop widgets) that I purchased the C-Locker pro version. See attached screen shot.

When setting up C-Locker it took me a while to discover and close "self inflicted" security holes:

1. The ability to boot into recovery by holding down power when on the lock screen. I had to disable that option in XPosed's Gravity Box module. I have installed an extended power app so when unlocked I can still get to a power menu which allows rebooting and boot into recovery.
2. Starting locker apps without forcing a PIN code input, then exiting the app to the desktop effectively bypassing pin security. It took reading this thread to understand what that the C-Locker settings>security>security unlock>PIN lock>TICK the "Enable PIN to launch shortcut apps" closed this security whole. You may consider making this option enabled by default or having a dialogue for that option when the settings app is first opened.

I reviewed all the tips videos but there are none on security. I'm suggesting that in the original post you outline specific settings which can prevent users unwittingly creating a security hole (avoiding unlocking their device to obtain desktop access).

I'm looking forward to the per locker app security options mentioned in this thread's post #407. e.g. allow a video player to be launched without the pin entry but force pin entry for the email app.

As an aside the XPosed module Quick View becomes redundant with C-Locker. To get the same functionality as Quick View I needed to use C-Locker->Settings->Block non-shortcut Apps, clicking "Check all" then uncheck any apps that would have been in the Quick View module's list. This comment may help others that use XPosed and Quick View.

RSS Feed bugs:

1. When trying to access the RSS feed from the bottom notification slide up panel:
   • Add the custom RSS feed Netflix new release RSS feed (http://instantwatcher.com/titles/new.atom)
   • Clicked the test button and there were no error messages
   • Toggled the power button to lock the phone
   • From C-Locker lock screen selecting the RSS tab
   • The RSS Feeds (Pro) screen appears and instantly pops up a "Updating News Feeds" in a continuous loop
   • I let this continue for several minutes just in case this was some sort of an initial cache loading situation. This feed has a large number of entries. Of note is that RSS widgets (e.g. Simple RSS Widget) allows you to specify the number of RSS feed items to display.
   • The phone was essentially locked out from user input except the home button returned to the lock screen while the back button did nothing.
   • I rebooted the phone and tried again but the problem persisted
   • Without rebooted I hit the home button. The lock screen returned but I saw a C-Locker force close pop-up.
   • I have attached a logcat that has both the FC and repeated "Updating News Feeds" loop. The logcat includes device details. I do not know if this is related but, I don't have a data plan so was accessing the Internet via WiFi. I have the phone set to never use Mobile data for internet access (Settings->Data usage "Mobile data OFF").
2. Local network RSS feeds do not display:
   • I unlocked the device, went into C-Locker settings and selected the RSS preset then locked the device
   • This time the lock screen RSS feed displayed immediately and without any issues
   • Without rebooting I unlocked the device, went into C-Locker settings, selected custom and entered I different URL (http://192.168.0.102/rss/playlist.xml). This same local network URL works when I added it using Simple RSS Widget instead of the C-Locker RSS widget.
   • Clicked the Test button and didn't received as error
   • Went back to The RSS Feeds (Pro) screen but the preset RSS feed still displayed
   • Refreshing and rebooting still displays the preset RSS feed. I double checked the C-Locker RSS settings and they showed "Custom" button as selected and the RSS local feed URL from above.
   • I changed the custom RSS URL (http://rss.cbc.ca/lineup/topstories.xml) and that is recognized and displays properly
   • Finally I checked to see if the Locker widget C-Locker Music could use the local URL but it has the same issue. I went back to using Simple RSS Widget as a solution on the Music lock screen.
3. The RSS URL "http://rss.cbc.ca/lineup/topstories.xml" displays raw XML code except for the items data-time and title

As Simple RSS Widget is free, owned by the MYCOLORSCREEN the developers of the Themer app, is very well tested, I'm suggesting that you utilize that widget as your standard RSS widget. The variation in the RSS standards and their implementation across web sites, is going to be distracting to C-Locker's main feature development. I suspect the RSS bug #1 is "atom" feed related while #3 demonstrates issues that variations in RSS XML can cause. Simple RSS Widget doesn't have issues displaying the RSS URLs in any of the bugs #1-#3. It can also display images per item.

I hope this information helps in resolving these issues. I'm also trying to join the C-Locker Google+ beta program and will retest the three bugs if my join request is accepted.
