wp_is_site_protected_by_basic_auth() WP 5.6.1

Checks if this site is protected by HTTP Basic Auth.

At the moment, this merely checks for the present of Basic Auth credentials. Therefore, calling this function with a context different from the current context may give inaccurate results. In a future release, this evaluation may be made more robust.

Currently, this is only used by Application Passwords to prevent a conflict since it also utilizes Basic Auth.

Return

true|false. Whether the site is protected by Basic Auth.

Usage

wp_is_site_protected_by_basic_auth( $context );

$context(string)

The context to check for protection. Accepts 'login', 'admin', and 'front'.
Default: current context

Notes

• Global. String. $pagenow The current page.
