WP Shield

This plugin will allow you to secure your development, staging and UAT environments

with an http authentication block that can be controlled in admin but also turned

off via a declared variable in your config file. It allows you to bring your Database

back to non-production environments without having to physically turn off the plugin each time.

Variable: define('WP_SHIELD_UN', '');

This simple line of code (recommended to add to a file ignored by your code management

php file) will override the enabled flag

if the plugin’s settings. Enable in production and add the above code. If that

require file doesn’t exist in your other environments, it will prompt users for the

set username and password.
