Checking Options and sending email if one does not match

    Does the _options table always load by default into wordpress? so if I want to have wordpress check if siteurl and home do not match what they should be it sends me an email?

    I can put a function in the functions.php file, that checks it if it already loads, just wondering how to check those?

    if ($whatstringisit != "https://airdefensebadge.com/") {

// send email

}

    I have wordfence premium watching site, and no malware on it anywhere, but some how 3 times the domain url has changed to add something to the end like /.wp-toolkit_O or /.wp-toolkit_m, it has happened like 3 times, and it does not just change it there, it changes everywhere in the database it has the domain, it adds it to those too. it is very strange. I cannot find what is causing it. I use all these same plugins I am using on it, on multiple sites and this is the ONLY One this happens on. So I don’t think it is a plugin causing it. So I figured I just want something watching it 24/7 and send me an email if it happens again.

    Please let me know the string I would check. I don’t know it.

    https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_option/ is what you are looking for. You can use it to read the values for home and siteurl from the options table.

    However, regarding your problem: wp-toolkit is the name of a tool under Plesk to manage WordPress. Are you using Plesk? If so, take a look at its configuration, as this could probably be the cause (although I have never experienced such behavior with wp-toolkit myself).

    I am using Cpanel, it has wp-toolkit too, and it manages and secures my wordpress. but I use different cpanels on the same server (dedicated server)… with wp-toolkit and no other has this issue.

    so do I do:

    $siteurlvalue = get_option( 'siteurl' );
if($siteurlvalue != "https://airdefensebadge.com/") {
// send email
}

    Like that? or do I have to do something with the $siteurlvalue first?

    No, that should be sufficient. However, I would recommend running the whole thing via init hook only. So:

    add_action( 'init', function() { 
 $siteurlvalue = get_option( 'siteurl' );
 if($siteurlvalue != "https://airdefensebadge.com/") {
 // send email
 }
});

    You can define the mail as described here: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_mail/
