Examples

/**
 * Prevent SSL verification for Easy Digital Downloads Software Licensing API requests.
 *
 * This function hooks into the 'edd_sl_api_request_verify_ssl' filter and
 * returns false, effectively disabling SSL certificate verification for
 * API requests made by the EDD Software Licensing updater.
 *
 * This can be useful in development environments or when dealing with
 * self-signed certificates, but should be used with extreme caution in
 * production as it bypasses a crucial security measure.
 *
 * @param bool $verify_ssl Whether to verify SSL certificates.
 * @param EDD_SL_Plugin_Updater $updater The EDD_SL_Plugin_Updater instance.
 * @return bool False to disable SSL verification.

    // For this example, we're simply disabling it for all EDD SL API requests.
