[Resolved] Getting Toolset updates while blocking external http requests

The Toolset Community Forum is closed, for technical support questions, please head on to our Toolset Professional Support (for paid clients), with any pre-sale or admin question please contact us here.

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem: I have blocked external http requests using 'WP_HTTP_BLOCK_EXTERNAL' for security reasons. I would like to be able to whitelist any URLs necessary for automatic updates to the Toolset plugin suite using 'WP_ACCESSIBLE_HOSTS'. Which domains should I include?

Solution: You should allow access to api.wp-types.com and d7j863fr5jhrr.cloudfront.net

Hi,

I'm taking over maintenance of this new site using Toolset. For security reasons, I'm blocking external HTTP requests in my wp-config.php with this:

define( 'WP_HTTP_BLOCK_EXTERNAL', true );

And I am whitelisting hosts with this:
define( 'WP_ACCESSIBLE_HOSTS', ...)

As far as I know updates for WPML come through this URL:
d2salfytceyqoe.cloudfront.net

Is Toolset using a different address for this?

Cheers & thanks

Alex

Hi, I'm not sure about that so I've asked my second tier support team for some additional information. Please stand by and I will update you when I get their feedback.

Thanks for your patience. Our Systems team just let me know that these two domains should be whitelisted for Types plugin updates:
<ol>

  • api.wp-types.com
  • d7j863fr5jhrr.cloudfront.net
  • </ol>
