Yes I am experiencing this same issue. I just noticed it after my upgrade to 3.8.1, but it is possible it could have been an issue before the upgrade since I did not actually check this.
Any solution to this yet?
I ended up adding the following to my theme functions.php:
//Remove WordPress Generator Meta Tag
remove_action(‘wp_head’, ‘wp_generator’);
It’s weird because this functionality worked in bwp before. There are other settings that are causing unexpected behavior too. Kind of unnerving – I don’t know which features are working and which aren’t. Maybe this version isn’t as stable as the last one?
The reason for this is in inc/secure.php. The variable $isIWP is not correctly initialized in function __construct().
If the test:
if ( $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA !== false && strlen( $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA ) > 0 )
doesn’t pass, $isIWP stays undefined. Then the condition is always false in the test:
if ( $isIWP === false )
So just adding
$isIWP = false;
before the first test solves the issue.
Thanks for the info. Easy fix until it’s time for a bwp update. Then I have to remember to make the change. Ugh. There are so many things wrong with bwp now, this being one of them. So many things broke on the last two versions of bwp – it doesn’t even do the things i wanted it for in the first place. I guess it’s time for a new security plugin.
