I want to ask if this code snippet is safe to use in WordPress. As I am new and their are many experts here. So I would like to ask them about this code.
if ( isset( $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO'] ) && 'https' === $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO'] ) { $_SERVER['HTTPS'] = 'on'; }
This code solves the redirect loop when using cloudflare SSL certificate.
Many forums and threads I have suggested to use similar code but some say that $_SERVER['HTTPS'] = 'on'; using this code is not a good practice. I want someone to guide
