Joomla: Register Globals
March 8, 2008 – 3:50 pmGetting this message on your Joomla Admin?
Following PHP Server Settings are not optimal for Security and it is recommended to change them:
- PHP register_globals setting is `ON` instead of `OFF`
Please check the Official Joomla! Server Security post for more information.
You see this because your server is enabling register globals. Why? A lot of scripts still require php register globals to be on. However you can disable it for Joomla fairly easily. Just follow this steps:
- Create local file named php.ini
- Edit php.ini and write this code:
[PHP]
register_globals = Off
- Save and close.
- Upload it to public_html and public_html/Administrator
- Test it.
