Create a WordPress custom search

This is not a complete plugin, but a how-to. Want more, take a look at my WP Loop plugin. Search is in class-wp-loupe-search.php

Sample below:

• expects that you've created your own search() function, which returns an array with post id. (eg.: Eg.: [ [ 'id' => 1 ], [ 'id' => 2 ] ])
• includes pagination
• tested (using WP Loop plugin) with Twenty Twenty-Four and Twenty Twenty-Five

Semgrep SAST (Static Application Security Testing) for WordPress

I use this GitHub Action to security test our WordPress themes

So what does the GitHub Action do?

It;

• get the code (i.e. themes) required by composer
• scan the code using semgrep
• upload the security errors to GitHub Code Security (i.e. the scan creates a sarif file which is uploaded)

WordPress WAF Custom rules for Azure Front Door (AFD)

AFD WAF Managed Rules DRS 2.1 blocks WordPress. The below WP* custom rules let you access WordPress URLs that you need. I also implemented a rate-limiting rule to prevent brute force attacks.

The WP* rules are based on the OWASP CRS - WordPress Rule Exclusions Plugin rules

• AFD Premuim supports max 5 (!) regex, so I had to convert the regex rules to separate rules.

Custom WordPress Allow Rules

• WPLoginUser
