• using itheme security – wp_content – when changed it’s still visible to inspect element – which means ANYONE can see what the folder has been renamed to!

    Renaming the wp_content folder actually makes several of my favorite plugins broken and unusable, yet I’ve continued to rename even on my new installs since your plugin makes a point of saying it helps prevent hacks – yet if you inspect any element on a site, you can see the wp_content folder’s new name? Then, how is it stopping hacks?

    It’s also UN-reversible – so changing it has no way of stopping hackers, but you still recommend it be changed?

    Also, are working on a fix so other plugins that NEED to use wp_content can find the new folder? like some kind of backend re-direct for plugins?

    Your wp_content rename kills some very usful seo plugins, and I’d like to be able to use them AND yours – will this get fixed soon? Or are you going to at least stop recommending rename until it can ACTUALLY hide the path to the content folder?
