    Hi Dimitar
    Could you add ‘always’ Unset to remove the PHP version as it doesn’t always work. When I set it using your plugin I then have to open the .htaccess file and add ‘always’ in front of ‘unset’ and it works.

    Thanks

    Hi Colin

    A good idea!
    I will add the always condition in the very next release.

    Hi Dimitar
    I have updated to the new version and under Miscellaneous => X-Powered-By it doesn’t have the option of setting ‘Alawys’ as mentioned above.

    My .htacceee file says:
    Header unset X-Powered-By

    I need the option to add ‘always’ as it doesn’t always take the PHP version off.
    Header always unset X-Powered-By

    Like I said above I will need to access the .htaccess file and add it myself.

    Cheers

    The plugin will add the always condition silently. I mean you can’t choose to add it or not from the UI, at least for now.

    To see the changes you need to hit the “Save Changes” button on the “X-Powered-By” page.
    After that your .htaccess file should looks like:

    Header always unset X-Powered-By
Header unset X-Powered-By

    * The double header is needed to make it works for all SAPI.

    Hi Dimitar
    Thanks for your explanation. Yes I checked the .htaccess file and it does have both entries.

    Would the 2nd one overwrite the first one though?

    Thanks

    Both lines do the same, just some Server APIs ignore the condition.

    For example: when PHP is installed as Apache module
    Header always unset X-Powered-By is ignored
    That’s why I need:
    Header unset X-Powered-By
