    Hi, I would like information on this plugin. I would need to hide the plugins and the wordpress theme used for my site. Can this plugin not let third parties see the various plugins installed?

    Hi, Thank you for your question. The plugin is changing all the plugins and themes names in the source code and all the WP common paths.

    In the premium version you have the option to restrict access to the old paths and avoid any injection or attack to the vulnerable plugins.

    Let me know if you need more details about the plugin.

    thanks for the reply, I want to be sure that if someone wants to verify the name of the plugins used they cannot trace. So changing the name is enough to not let you discover both the theme and the name of the plugins?

    If a person looks over the source code for themes and plugin it may discover some popular plugins (like woocommerce) and themes from the class names used in the source code.

    You can use the Text Mapping feature from HMWP to hide the class names but this may affect the functionality of that specific plugin.

    What is important is to restrict the hacker bots access to vulnerable plugins. This part is possible only if the paths are changed before. This is what HMWP Ghost does. It also adds Brute Force protection and a firewall against the known attacks.

    Hope my answer helps.
