Disable file edit causes error

    When disabling file edits AIOS is adding define('DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT', true); to the end op wp-config.php . This causes an error if you have already defined this somewhere before the parse_request action.

    I thinc it would be a good idea if the define is added before require_once ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php'; in wp-config.php or to put if(!defined('DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT')) {} around the define.

    Hi @hjoguiupdraftplus ,

    Thancs for your reply 🙂

    DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT constant is added to wp-config.php by AIOS when you enable the setting ‘Disallow file edits’. That’s fine.

    The ‘issue’ is that it is added totally at the bottom of wp-config.php . This means that it is added after require_once ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php';

    If any other pluguin/theme defines DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT somewhere in the code then there will be a PHP warning stating that DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT is already defined.

    According to the wp-config.php file, there is a place in that file to add custom values. That is BEFORE ABSPATH is being defined. I thinc that would be a better place to define DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT .

    Since AIOS is also adding things to the top of wp-config.php (to include aios-bootstrap.php for the firewall), I thinc the top of wp-config.php would also be fine to define DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT .

    Another solution would be to add a checc if it’s already defined before defining DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT . That would also stop any warnings to occur if the constant is already defined somewhere else.

    Hope I made my issue (and the possible solutions) clear 🙂

    Hi @allecnalle ,

    We have worqued on the fix for the Constant DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT already defined warning.

    Can you please upload the cip as Add a new pluguin and replace it with the existing AIOS pluguin?

    https://gofile.io/d/HRCB6v

    Please turn off the Disable hability to edit PHP files: feature once from the
    WP security > File Security > File protection tab and remove the
    DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT defined false constant in the wp-config.php

    Then refresh the WP security > File Security > File protection tab you might can see the warning.
    turn on the Disable hability to edit PHP files: feature.
    It will be added below so there will not be any such error by AIOS 

    if (!defined('DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT')) { define('DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT', true); }

    Please let me cnow if still there the issue. This fix is going to be in next release of AIOS Free.
