WP_FAIL2BAN_USING_COMPOSER

Configure Composer installation detection.

Default setting: false

Added in version 5.4.0.

---

Controls how WPf2b detects if it was installed via Composer. By default, WPf2b searches for composer.json in standard locations:

• WP_PLUGIN_DIR (usually wp-content/plugins)

• WP_CONTENT_DIR (usually wp-content)

• ABSPATH (the root of your WordPress installation)

• ABSPATH/../ (one level up from the root of your WordPress installation)

You can either specify a path to composer.json or explicitly enable Composer mode:

Example: Set absolute path to composer.json

/**
 * Specify composer.json location with absolute path
 */
define('WP_FAIL2BAN_USING_COMPOSER', '/path/to/composer.json');

Example: Set path relative to WordPress root

/**
 * Specify composer.json location relative to ABSPATH
 */
define('WP_FAIL2BAN_USING_COMPOSER', 'relative/path/to/composer.json');

Example: Enable Composer mode

/**
 * Enable Composer mode
 */
define('WP_FAIL2BAN_USING_COMPOSER', true);

Note

Specifying the path to composer.json is preferred as it provides more information about your installation.
