WordPress Config Generator

Pretty cool tool to tweak your WP Config upon a new install: Generate wp-config.php File

Looks pretty neat! I usually use https://wp-cli.org/ to automate WP on servers.

Well, I’m using shared hosting mostly and not all support wp-cli (I believe), so I am happy with the config gen :slight_smile:

Just configured my go-to config file template for future wp installs :wink:

Anything you’d recommend I changed?

@Ympker found another WP Config generator which seems to have a few more options than the wp-config.php generator one. Also, in your config template the define( ‘FORCE_SSL_LOGIN’, true ); apparently was deprecated in v4 WP being replaced with FORCE_SSL_ADMIN.

Thanks for sharing mate, will keep that in mind!

Hm, I never considered any such option, the config file is pretty straight forward, nicely commented? :thinking:

Not really by wpconfig but wp has a very good KB and community reach so you can surely find the respective options. It also shows default.
