I removed AIOFirewall but it seems to have altered my config files

    At one point I installed AIO Firewall but decided to uninstall. Recently this became an issue when I changed my database passwords within Cyberpanel. I assumed these passwords would be within wp-config.php, but when I went there, I found:

    // Begin AIOWPSEC Firewall
    if (file_exists(‘/home/brego.com/public_html/aios-bootstrap.php’)) {
    include_once(‘/home/brego.com/public_html/aios-bootstrap.php’);
    }
    // End AIOWPSEC Firewall

    In any case I’m wondering why is this in there if the plugin is removed, and it seems my site is now down because the password changes aren’t being recognized as usual.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @slumbum

    If you Deactivate and Delete the AIOS plugin from WP admin > Plugins list this should not be the case and it should have removed the reference of aios-bootstrap.php from wp-config.php, user.ini and .htccess files also.

    Do you have the /wp-content/plugins/all-in-one-wp-security-and-firewall folder deleted?

    If yes then it will not do anything by adding file aios-bootstrap.php in wp-config.php It suppose to load firewall rules from the plugin all-in-one-wp-security-and-firewall folder.

    It shoudl be some thing different issue that password change not recognised.
