Used to be my go-to solution

I understand wanting to make money, but by removing this feature from the free version, you just put so many people at risk, and they don’t even know it. DICK.

@mpfefferle

This information is totally incorrect and extremely unrespectfull.
Do note this is still a free plugin and it still includes the Hide Backend feature.

sorry but he’s correct, maybe not about that particular feature but definitely others. I have lots of sites now getting hacked that previously were protected with the free version. Now however they’re not.

I’m searching for another solution.

@mpfefferie let me know if you find a hack protection that actually works now that ithemes has restricted their free plugin features to entice users towards their premium model.

Nope he is not correct.

… now that ithemes has restricted their free plugin features …

And you are not correct as well. Sad to see another post with incorrect information.
EVERY feature that was in the pre 5.4.0 (UI makeover) release is still available in the current release. Apart from the new UI the only thing iThemes did was add placeholders for the PRO modules to the FREE plugin. PRO modules you were previously probably unaware of…
Instead of being vague ( … definitely others.) please name a feature that is no longer available in the current FREE plugin … You’ll find there isn’t any.

When you post information please make sure it’s correct.
Oh and this may be news for you. There isn’t any security plugin that will prevent your site from being hacked. The biggest security risk is the human factor …

Also its @mpfefferle not @mpfefferie …
