issue with new version (hide-my-wp.5.0.10) (free version)

Hi @anxiousmax,

Thank you for the feedback and for the tests.

1. Please check if the paths are changed if you switch on Hide My WP > Advanced > late Loading option.

2. Another solution is to add this line in wp-config.php

define('HMW_PRIORITY', true);

Did you test if it’s working when you have only HMWP Ghost plugin active? To identify if there is a compatibility issue with an active plugin.

We worked hard to bring many new features in HMWP Ghost version 5. It may need a few touches but we focused on the website loading speed and to add more security to your websites.

I really appreciate your help.

Hi @anxiousmax,

See it it’s working when you switch off this option:

Hide My WP > Advanced > Prevent Slow Loading Website

https://hidemywpghost.com/kb/advanced-wp-security/#prevent_slow_loading

It’s good to have it active as it will temporary deactivate the plugin if the rewrite rules are not added correctly in the config file or the server is not configured to support custom paths.

Here are the situations that triggers this option:

Hello

Good Day, i checked the links you forwarded also added this on the config
define(‘HMW_PRIORITY’, true); unfortunately still not working (free version)

here’s lines i added on the config way back to changed wp_content_dir & wp_content_url WORDPRESS Setup

define(‘WP_CONTENT_DIR’, ‘/files/homepages/3/d291395111/htdocs/website/app/wp-content’ );
define(‘WP_CONTENT_URL’, ‘https://static-files.domain.com/app/wp-content’);
define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘domain.com’);
define(‘HMW_PRIORITY’, true);

also lines above works with older version 4.1.11

thanks

Hey,

Thank you for the details. I’ve tested the custom WP_CONTENT_DIR and WP_CONTENT_URL option and it works well with the last version of HMWP Ghost.

I see that you have a different domain set for the wp-content.
In the new version of HMWP Ghost we added a filter to prevent any path change for the external URLs that may result in 404 errors.

To change the paths for any domain/subdomain that is not matching the main domain/subdomain, you need to add it in the CDN list:

Hide My WP > Mapping > CDN URLs

Hope this helps,
