Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Salt Shaker
Make sure that wp-config.php file has the salt keys. If for any reason the keys aren't there; you can always generate a set of keys from this link https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt/ and add it to your wp-config.php file. Once that's done, the plugin will be able to shake them based on your settings.
Post detailed information about the issue in the support forum and we will work to fix it.
You can use this filter to define the file location salt_shaker_salts_file. Example: In this example, the new location of the config file is in a folder that's outside WordPress location in a folder called wpsecret. Make sure to replace it with your secret location ;) function salt_shaker_new_file($salts_file_name) { $salts_file_name = '../wpsecret/wp-config'; return $salts_file_name; } add_filter('salt_shaker_salts_file', 'salt_shaker_new_file');
