# Developer Mode Enabled although WP_DEBUG set to false

 * In my config I have set `define('WP_DEBUG', false);`, nevertheless the message‘
   Developer Mode Enabled’ is displayed. I checked it this is related to the new
   1.4 release but found that it was already the same on 1.3.3.
    I think it could
   be related to our new setup: we added an NGINX proxy in front of our apache webserver
   to handle the load. I tried to figure out how the redux framework sets the debug
   mode but failed – can you help here please? Currently I only deployed the new
   version on our staging server. thx

 * FYI: I found [https://github.com/reduxframework/redux-developer-mode-disabler](https://github.com/reduxframework/redux-developer-mode-disabler)
   but unfortunately adding that code to function.php did not disable the dev mode
   either

 * Do you have any other plugins active that use the Redux options framework, and
   if so, is developer mode enabled on any of them?

 * Unfortunately I could not find a solution yet on how to identify nginx/apache
   setups so that they are not falsly identified as localhost.

 * Also implementing the following redux changes in the next version would be much

 * Just coming back to this. First of all, thank you for the links – good detective
   work! Secondly, yes, I’m going to implement as much of this as I can into the
   next plugin release. Finally, it’s really annoying that you were completely misunderstood
   and never replied to on this thread: [https://github.com/reduxframework/redux-framework/issues/3508](https://github.com/reduxframework/redux-framework/issues/3508)
 * Seriously, Redux? Sigh…
 * Thanks again for helping make WTR better!
