 * Will WordPress run in PHP Safe Mode?
    Most definitely! There are no known issues
   with any version of WordPress when PHP is running in Safe Mode.
 * Why is it that lot’s of people have problems running it in safe
    mode when there
   are you know issues? And what are the security issues when you turn it off?

 * The security issues may involve people uploading files to your filestore or penetrating
   places they should not. Your data is then in jeopardy and so is the Web server
   that can be crippled to death.
 * Safe mode causes problem when you try to add images because directories need 
   to be created. Search the forum for more information on how to resolve this. 
   Best wishes…

 * [@candleofhope](https://wordpress.org/support/users/candleofhope/): have a look
   at [http://trac.wordpress.org/file/trunk/index.php](http://trac.wordpress.org/file/trunk/index.php).
   All the code is generally there
 * [@simmer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simmer/): some people have Safe
   Mode enables because of the policies of the host. It’s a bugger, I know.
