The ultimate collection of the most useful WordPress configuration (wp-config.php) tricks that you may need but do not know about!
This is a useful guide into the backend of WordPress. Two tricks stood out to me:
Changing Your Site or WordPress Address
Normally, you can set your WordPress and Site URLs from Settings » General page. However, you may not be able to do that if you don’t have access to your WordPress site, seeing redirect errors, or have just moved your site.
In that case, you can change your site and WordPress URLs via wp-config.php file by adding the following lines:
define('WP_HOME', 'http://www.example.com');
define('WP_SITEURL', 'http://www.example.com');
And
Moving wp-content Directory
WordPress allows you to move your wp-content directory. Some experts believe that it can help strengthen WordPress security.
You will need to add the following code to your wp-config.php file:
define( 'WP_CONTENT_DIR', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/blog/wp-content' );
define( 'WP_CONTENT_URL', 'http://example/blog/wp-content');
define( 'WP_PLUGIN_DIR', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/blog/wp-content/plugins' );
define( 'WP_PLUGIN_URL', 'http://example/blog/wp-content/plugins');Don’t forget to replace example.com with your own domain name.
I wonder if this would allow me to better integrate my ‘home’ space and have a shared content / plugin library between my different sites?
