Force wordpress to request for FTP Info on theme/plugin install/update

Question

I just tried this on a local install that previously used the ‘direct’ FS_METHOD.

In wp-config.php, set the following constants:

define('FS_METHOD', 'ftpext');

Not sure if this actually affects things, but I also set these to try to force the input fields to be empty when the form is presented:

define('FTP_USER', false);
define('FTP_PASS', false);
