wp-config-file-editor

WordPress does not make the wp-config.php file’s settings directly editable for very good reason! At best, this plugin will cause inexperienced site admins to break their own sites (and have to go in and manually edit the wp-config.php file to fix the problem anyway), and at worst, it is a powerful vector for hackers who are able to gain access to a site through weak admin login credentials — which I bet are disproportionately likely to be present on the site of anyone inexperienced enough to install this plugin. Do not use this plugin!

Does’nt work at all. I installed the plugin and tried to enable debug mode option, but the plugin broke the site completely. Luckily I had a backup! CAUTION!

Hi there, How do I make the wp-config.php file writeable? When I use this tool I get an error. KC

Very handy

it doesn’t load at all

Clicking the “Save” button after making a change in either the GUI or raw editor does absolutely nothing. This is on WP 5.5.
