Some ideas: You should check your php info, just to verify your upload settings (<?php phpinfo();?>) You could try a single install, to see if you have the same problems as with multisite. You should also try some 3rd party upload script yourself. In /wp-includes/script-loader.php I found these lines: // common bits for both uploaders … Read more
For security issues, Hostgator requires more parameters – like port, etc. – in wp-config.php to connect to a remote – non-localhost – mysql server. Read http://support.hostgator.com/articles/cpanel/how-to-connect-to-the-mysql-database-remotely
The official reply is that ABSPATH is more for backward compatibility with code which was written when plugins were including wp-config.php and overriding WP_CONTENT_DIR should be enough. https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/29626#comment:3 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/26592#comment:8
The obvious problem is that you are trusting user input (http headers) which makes your code suspicious from security POV. Other then that, no real problems with it, but my experience is that such hacks have a tendency to just move whatever problem you are trying to solve this way to another place.
There is actually nothing unique about setting multisite on XAMPP, all you need to do is properly configure the webserver as a proper webserver, and skip the lazy practice of using localhost as your site domain. Select some random domain you are not likely to use in your web use, edit your hosts file to … Read more

You can place a .htaccess file in the folder wp-admin with the following content: <Files “setup-config.php”> Order Deny,Allow Deny from all </Files> Optionally you can add the line Allow from {your ip address} after Deny from all, so you can access the file.
If WordPress is installed in the directory /dir1/dir2 and the corresponding .htaccess file is also in that subdirectory, ie. /dir1/dir2/.htaccess, then the .htaccess file should look something like: # BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On #RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress … Read more
There’s no “parser” that needs to be “smart”. It’s just a PHP file that runs as part of WordPress loading. The reason you need to put edits before that line is because the line that comes after it is this: require_once( ABSPATH . ‘wp-settings.php’ ); And this line basically loads all of WordPress. So any … Read more
This answer was based off the comment from @Rup on the question. I needed to add a .htaccess file to my source. I did this with the default contents: # BEGIN WordPress RewriteEngine On RewriteRule .* – [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}] RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] # … Read more
