12. There should be a possibility to return the array of all available info. Although
this might not be a good practice in terms of performance this should help someone
who needs to fetch all info about a website. Note that I’ve omitted some fields
that might not be that important:
13. ```php
function bloginfo_array() {
$fields = array('name', 'description', 'wpurl', 'url', 'admin_email', 'charset', 'version', 'html_type', 'text_direction', 'language');
$data = array();
foreach($fields as $field) {
$data[$field] = get_bloginfo($field);
}
return $data;
}
```

38. The comments regarding `get_bloginfo(‘url’)` are misleading. It will *not* necessarily
return what is set in Settings > General. The protocol (“http” or “https”) will
be determined by the value of `[is_ssl()](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/is_ssl/)`,
which detects if the current request is over SSL or not.
39. * @mslade Yes, this is why hooks exist in WordPress, and [is_ssl()](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/is_ssl/)(
https can be forced) has priority over the returned URL setting since the value
can be modified by a filter. By default, if no filter has been applied then
the URL value would be returned as it is.
