Disable Features¶
Sometimes it may be necessary to disable a feature (or functional check) based on your environment.
FM_NO_AUTH¶
If all super-admin users get locked out, the authentication can be disabled. This will set Authentication Method to None in the Settings → General.
Example
define('FM_NO_AUTH', true);You should remove this configuration entry once the authentication method is reset otherwise it will continue to get reset.
FM_NO_HTACCESS¶
facileManager performs checks to ensure the .htaccess file is present in the document root. In some cases, it may be necssary to disable the check. For example, you may opt to put the contents in the virtual host directive of your web server configuration.
Example
define('FM_NO_HTACCESS', true);
FM_NO_REWRITE_TEST¶
facileManager performs checks to ensure the rewrites (typically found in .htaccess) are working properly. In some cases, it may be necessary to disable the check. For example, you may need to disable this check if your web server is behind a proxy.
Example
define('FM_NO_REWRITE_TEST', true);
