Что такое MU-плагины и почему они нужны на уровне ядра

Разработка на WordPress часто начинается с установки готовых решений из официального репозитория. По мере роста проекта и усложнения требований к безопасности и производительности стандартный подход перестаёт работать. Обычные плагины требуют активации, могут быть случайно отключены или скомпрометированы через уязвимости в графическом интерфейсе. На определённом этапе разработки возникает необходимость внедрить правила, которые применяются на уровне самого сервера и не могут быть изменены через администрати Read more

Станет ли сланцевая нефть дешевле обычной?
