Hi team,
We’re using WP Armour Extended alongside a plugin that handles multi-user subaccount creation via AJAX (no standard <form> tag). The issue is that WP Armour seems to be blocking the AJAX registration request for subaccounts.
Here’s a summary of the setup:
The subaccount creation UI is JavaScript-driven, with no <form> tag.
It sends a POST request via $.post() to admin-ajax.php, using the action: smuac_create_multiaccount.
The plugin does not render a traditional form but instead builds and submits data via jQuery.
What we’ve tried so far:
Added filter to bypass validation for this action:
add_filter('wparmour/bypass_validation', function($bypass) {
if (isset($_POST['action']) && $_POST['action'] === 'smuac_create_multiaccount') {
return true;
}
return $bypass;
});
Excluded the CSS class from WP Armour settings (.smuac_multiaccounts_new_account_container) in the Ignored Forms section.
Neither approach has resolved the issue — submissions are still silently blocked or do not go through.
Can you advise:
The best way to bypass WP Armour for a JavaScript/AJAX-only form submission?
Whether there’s a hook we can use earlier in the WP Armour logic to ensure it doesn’t block this specific request?
We can provide any logs or debug info you need.
Thanks in advance for your help!
