Error: cannot find your wp-config.php file

    Hello,

    your suggested wp-check.php is telling me:

    NinjaFirewall (WP edition) troubleshooter
HTTP server 	: 	Apache
PHP version 	: 	7.4.30
PHP SAPI 	: 	FPM-FCGI
 	 	 
auto_prepend_file 	: 	none
wp-config.php 	: 	Error: cannot find your wp-config.php file

    This may happen because the home of wp-config.php is not the common wp-admin folder, this installation renamed to to something like ‘hgnv7u67nn’ – how to tell NinjaFirewall where wp-config.php resides?

    Thanks,
    Achim

    You can give the full path (absolute path) to the wp-config.php by adding it to the .htninja configuration file:

    1. Create a file and name it .htninja.

    2. Add this code:

    <?php
/*
 +===========================================================================================+
 | NinjaFirewall optional configuration file                                                 |
 |                                                                                           |
 | See: https://blog.nintechnet.com/ninjafirewall-wp-edition-the-htninja-configuration-file/ |
 +===========================================================================================+
*/

// Absolute path to the wp-config.php
$wp_config = '/foo/bar/wp-config.php';

    3. Upload the file to the WordPress root folder.

    4. Log in to WordPress, go to NinjaFirewall > Dashboard and check if the firewall detected and loaded the .htninja.
