Filesystem Security > PHP File Editing

    I am attempting to disable the ability to edit php files. When I check the box and click save, the main content area just becomes empty (it’s all white). I have found that this is usually an issue with something going wrong in the php script. Everything else seems to work just fine, I just can’t enable, or rather, disable the php editing.

    Any thoughts?

    Have you checked the your server’s error_log files to see if there might be a clue as to why you see the white screen?

    You can view your server logs by going to “Filesystem Security” menu and then clicking the “Host System Logs” tab.

    I am getting the message “No system logs were found!”

    Just after you activate that feature and the white screen occurs, ftp to your site and grab the modified wp-config.php file.
    Then examine this file to see if you can spot any obvious syntax error.

    Look also especially at the line containing “DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT” and before/after this line.

    Hi,
    We have exactly the same problem.
    And this is what we got

    /** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */
    require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-settings.php’);//Disable File Edits
    define(‘DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT’, false);

    But it does not work even if we delete these setting.

    Any idea??
    Thank you.
