WP_HTTP_Proxy::send_through_proxy( string $uri )

Determines whether the request should be sent through a proxy.

Description

We want to keep localhost and the site URL from being sent through the proxy, because some proxies can not handle this. We also have the constant available for defining other hosts that won’t be sent through the proxy.

Parameters

$uri: (string) (Required) URL of the request.

Return

(bool) Whether to send the request through the proxy.
