As Flywheel stands apart from most other managed WordPress hosting companies by offering a number of features for both web designers and developers, more and more companies are moving to Flywheel server.
Flywheel is a Nginx based hosting and it will require some extra setup after you install Hide My WP Ghost plugin on your server.
Please follow this tutorial step by step to set up the Hide My WP Ghost for Flywheel server:
In your WordPress dashboard, go to Hide My WP > Change Paths
Select the Safe Mode or Ghost Mode, scroll down and customize the paths as you like
Click the Save button to save the changes.
You will see a message to include the configuration file into nginx.conf file.
Ask the Flywheel Support to add the include /www/hidemywp.conf; in the nginx.conf (to add the line before the WordPress rules) and to restart Nginx.
Note! Do not logout until you get the confirmation from support that the config is included.
5. After the lines in added and the Nginx is reloaded, click the “Frontend Login Test” and see if the login page is loading correctly. You can also check the website with a different browser or from the incognito mode.
6. If everything loads fine in Frontend, click the button “Yes, it’s working” button. Otherwise click on “No, abort” to roll back to previous settings.
Autoptimize is strictly an optimization plugin and not a security plugin that works great with the Hide My WP Ghost plugin.
Autoptimize has the option to combine all CSS and JS files and also the inline styles.
Autoptimize has over 1 million active installs in the WordPress repository and is consistently updated with new features.
With a bit of setup, Autoptimize + Hide My WP Ghost will help you hide the plugins and themes from all Themes Detectors.
To hide all CSS and JSS you need to follow the steps to combine the JS and CSS files into one file. Let’s see how you can do this with the Autoptimize plugin.
Autoptimize – Combine JS Files
Autoptimize plugin comes with the option to Aggregate/Combine the JS Files into one file. As we tested the plugin this is working really well with Change Paths in Cache Files option in Hide My WP Ghost.
Aggregate JS Files
Autoptimize’s “aggregate JS files” option will combine all of your JavaScript files into a single file.
Aggregating CSS and JS files will still result in a speed bump for certain types of WordPress sites, so we recommend testing your page speed with this option enabled and disabled.
Note! To hide the plugins’ JS URLs, make sure you activate the option “Aggregate JS-files” in Autoptimize and let Hide My WP Ghost change the paths in the cached file.
Also Aggregate Inline JS
The “also aggregate inline JS” option extracts inline JS in your HTML, and combines it with Autoptimize’s optimized JS file. Since this option can cause a rapid increase in Autoptimize’s cache size, we recommend keeping this option disabled unless you have a specific reason to enable it.
Autoptimize – Combine CSS Files
Autoptimize plugin also comes with the option to Aggregate/Combine the CSS Files into one file.
Aggregate CSS Files
Autoptimize’s “aggregate CSS files” option will combine all of your CSS files into a single file.
Note! To hide all the plugins’ css files you need to activate the option “Aggregate CSS files” in Autoptimize and let Hide My WP Ghost change the paths in the cached file.
Also Aggregate Inline CSS
This option will move inline CSS to Autoptimize’s CSS file. While moving inline CSS to a browser-cacheable CSS file can reduce page size, we recommend leaving this option disabled in most cases.
Hide Autoptimize cache path
Now that all the CSS and JS are combined, these files are present in the cache directory.
By default, the cache path is /core/cache/autoptimize/ which pretty much says that you are using Autoptimize plugin.
To fix this, simply map the URL with a custom name like in the below example from Hide My WP > Mapping > URL Mapping:
To activate Hide My WP Ghost to change the paths in the cache file, go to Hide My WP > Tweaks > Change Paths in Cache Files and the plugin will automatically change the paths in background using the cron option.
This is the question we asked ourselves as a software company many years ago when we switched our business to WordPress CMS. It’s hard to trust an open-source CMS where our websites will probably end up being hacked.
As a developer, I wanted to know how to protect my WordPress website and how to protect my clients’ websites. I started studying WordPress CMS, its weak points and strong points and I found out that not the WordPress core itself is the main issue but the installed plugins and themes.
Many free plugins and themes were built by beginner programmers without any security knowledge and frankly, they probably didn’t even care about their users. As WordPress CMS can’t work without a plugin or a theme, most probably each production website had installed, at one point, a vulnerable plugin or a theme.
How To Protect My WordPress Website
Luckily, there are many security plugins now that verify the plugin integrity and vulnerability but they can’t keep up with all the last updates and the new plugins on the market.
About 4 years ago our company came up with the idea of creating a security plugin that will protect all the vulnerable plugins and themes by blocking the attacks on the common WordPress URLs and Paths.
This idea led us to create the Hide My WP Ghost plugin. A plugin that allows you to change all the common paths with hidden paths and block the hacker’s bots access to the known vulnerable paths.
We successfully reduced the number of SQL and Script injection attacks up to 99% with the Hide My WP Ghost plugin. We significantly reduced the number of Brute Force and XSS Attacks.
The best part is that Hide My WP Ghost works together with all other security plugins on the market by adding a layer of security for each business.
We look forward on keeping WordPress the safest open-source CMS and reducing the bot attacks as low as possible.
Secure Hosting Companies
Choosing a safe hosting is also important when you create a website for your business. There are many WordPress dedicated hosting companies who offer security and management.
Note! Keep in mind to choose a plan that will keep a daily backup on your website’s data.
Once you have a secure hosting plan and security plugins installed on your server, you don’t have to worry about getting hacked and you can focus on getting the best out of your online business.
First I want to congratulate the authors of the Really Simple SSL plugin who created such a simple and efficient plugin.
Now, Hide My WP Ghost works well with most of the Really Simple SSL options.
The only option that needs a bit of attention,if the 301 redirect with .htaccess which adds the rewrite rules in the .htaccess file after the Hide My WP Ghost rules.
To make sure the plugins are working together well after you save the options in Really Simple SSL plugin, save the settings in Hide My WP Ghost too. This way the rules are moved to the beginning or the .htaccess file.
# BEGIN rlrssslReallySimpleSSL
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
# END rlrssslReallySimpleSSL
Note! If the .htaccess file is not writable, make sure you manually move the Really Simple SSL rewrite rules to the beginning of the .htaccess file and save the file.
Connect your website using the API key from the plugin description in the Plugins tab
Once you connected your plugin, Hide My WP Ghost will know how to handle the compatibility and you will be able to connect to your admin area directly from the Manage WP panel.
Using an Open Source CMS with open-source plugins and themes it’s giving a hard time preventing all the hack attacks to your WordPress site.
Many plugins are created by authors who don’t know how to completely secure them. The same with the themes’ authors.
Prevent Hack Attacks
Fortunately, there are security plugins that are built to help you protect your website and prevent hack attacks. Some of them are popular on WordPress: Wordfence, iThemes, Sucuri, etc.
Most of these plugins are working to identify if your website was already hacked but what’s also important is to add a layer on your WordPress site to proactively stop a virus.
The best and simplest way to do this is to change all the known vulnerable paths for all plugins and themes. To do this, you can install Hide My WP Ghost free plugin.
Hide My WP Ghost works together with other security plugins and hides the paths from hackers’ bots, stopping all Script and SQL injections. You can also include Brute Force protection to your login page if you want to use only one security plugin for your website.
Even if both plugins are considered WordPress Security plugins, WordFence and Hide My WP work together without any issue and both will add security layers on your websites, stopping the hackers’ attacks and preventing data loss.
Advantages:
Both plugins are free and used successfully by many companies around the globe.
Both plugins load fast and work with SEO and Cache plugins.
Both plugins work on all types of servers.

Are you looking to move WordPress from HTTP to HTTPS and install an SSL certificate on your website? We have been getting a lot of requests on this topic because Google announced that Chrome browser will start marking all websites without SSL as insecure starting July 2018. In this article, we will show you how to properly move WordPress from HTTP to HTTPs by adding a SSL certificate.
Don’t worry, if you have no idea what SSL or HTTPS is. We’re going to explain that as well.
What is HTTPS?
HTTPS or Secure HTTP is an encryption method that secures the connection between users’ browser and your server. This makes it harder for hackers to eavesdrop on the connection.
Every day we share our personal information with different websites whether it’s making a purchase or simply logging in.
In order to protect the data transfer, a secure connection needs to be created.
That’s when SSL and HTTPS come in.
Each site is issued a unique SSL certificate for identification purposes. If a server is pretending to be on HTTPS, and its certificate doesn’t match, then most modern browsers will warn the user from connecting to the website.
Now you are probably wondering, why do I need to move my WordPress site from HTTP to HTTPS especially if it’s a simple blog or small business website that doesn’t collect any payments.
Why do you need HTTPS and SSL?
Last year Google announced a plan to improve overall web security by encouraging website owners to make the switch from HTTP to HTTPS. As part of this plan, their popular Chrome web browser would mark all websites without an SSL certificate as “Not Secure” starting July 2018.
As part of the announcement, Google also said that websites with SSL will also see SEO benefits and higher rankings. Since last year, a large number of websites have switched from HTTP to HTTPS.
Google has been slowly rolling out the “Not Secure” warning in Chrome. For example, if someone visits a HTTP website using the incognito window, it will be marked as Not Secure. If someone visits a HTTP website on regular mode and tries to fill out a contact form or another form, then the website will be marked as insecure.
When your readers and customers see this notice, it gives them a bad impression for your business.
This is why all websites need to move form HTTP to HTTPS and install SSL immediately.
Not to mention, if you want to accept payments online on your eCommerce website, then you need SSL.
Most payment companies like Stripe, PayPal Pro, Authorize.net, etc will require you to have a secure connection before accepting payments.
We use SSL for our websites including WPBeginner, OptinMonster, WPForms, and MonsterInsights.
Requirements for using HTTPS/SSL on a WordPress Site
The requirements for using SSL in WordPress is not very high. All you need to do is purchase an SSL certificate, and you might already have it for free.
The best WordPress hosting companies are offering free SSL certificates for all their users:
Bluehost
SiteGround
WPEngine
Liquid Web
Dreamhost
InMotion Hosting
GreenGeeks
For more details, see our guide on how to get a free SSL certificate for your WordPress website.
If your hosting company does not offer a free SSL certificate, then you’ll need to purchase an SSL certificate.
We recommend using Domain.com because they offer the best SSL deal for both regular and wildcard SSL certificates.
By purchasing a SSL certificate from them, you also get a TrustLogo site seal for your website, and each SSL certificate comes with a minimum of $10,000 security warranty.
Once you have purchased an SSL certificate, you will need to ask your hosting provider to install it for you.
Setting up WordPress to Use SSL and HTTPs
After you have enabled SSL certificate on your domain name, you will need to set up WordPress to use SSL and HTTPs protocols on your website.
We will show you two methods to do that, and you can choose one that best fits your need.
Method 1: Setup SSL/HTTPS in WordPress Using a Plugin
This method is easier and is recommended for beginners.
First, you need to install and activate the Really Simple SSL plugin. For more details, see our step by step guide on how to install a WordPress plugin.
Upon activation, you need to visit Settings » SSL page. The plugin will automatically detect your SSL certificate, and it will set up your WordPress site to use HTTPs.
The plugin will take care of everything including the mixed content errors. Here’s what the plugin does behind the scenes:
Check SSL certificate
Set WordPress to use https in URLs
Set up redirects from HTTP to HTTPs
Look for URLs in your content still loading from insecure HTTP sources and attempt to fix them.
Note: The plugin attempts to fix mixed content errors by using output buffering technique. It can have a negative performance impact because it’s replacing content on the site as the page is being loaded. This impact is only seen on first-page load, and it should be minimal if you are using a caching plugin.
While the plugin says you can keep SSL and safely deactivate the plugin, it’s not 100% true. You will have to leave the plugin active at all times because deactivating the plugin will bring back mixed content errors.
Method 2: Setup SSL/HTTPS in WordPress Manually
This method requires you to troubleshoot issues manually and edit WordPress files. However this is a permanent and more performance optimized solution. This is what we’re using on WPBeginner.
If you find this method difficult, then you can hire a WordPress developer or use the first method instead.
As part of this method, you may need to edit WordPress theme and code files. If you haven’t done this before, then see our guide on how to copy and paste code snippets in WordPress.
First, you need to visit Settings » General page. From here you need to update your WordPress and site URL address fields by replacing http with https.
Don’t forget to click on the ‘Save changes’ button to store your settings.
Once the settings are saved, WordPress will log you out, and you will be asked to re-login.
Next, you need to set up WordPress redirects from HTTP to HTTPS by adding the following code to your .htaccess file.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301] </IfModule>
If you are on nginx servers (most users are not), then you would need to add the following code to redirect from HTTP to HTTPS in your configuration file:
server { listen 80; server_name example.com www.example.com; return301 https://example.com$request_uri; }
Don’t forget to replace example.com with your own domain name.
By following these steps, you will avoid the WordPress HTTPS not working error because WordPress will now load your entire website using https.
If you want to force SSL and HTTPS on your WordPress admin area or login pages, then you need to configure SSL in the wp-config.php file.
Simply add the following code above the “That’s all, stop editing!” line in your wp-config.php file:
define('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true);
This line allows WordPress to force SSL / HTTPs in WordPress admin area. It also works on WordPress multisite networks.
Once you do this, your website is now fully setup to use SSL / HTTPS, but you will still encounter mixed content errors.
These errors are caused by sources (images, scripts, or stylesheets) that are still loading using the insecure HTTP protocol in the URLs. If that is the case, then you will not be able to see a secure padlock icon in your website’s address bar.
Many modern browsers will automatically block unsafe scripts and resources. You may see a padlock icon but with a notification about it in your browser’s address bar.
You can find out which content is served through insecure protocol by using the Inspect tool. The mixed content error will be displayed as a warning in the console with details for each mixed content item.
You will notice that most URLs are images, iframes, and image galleries while some are scripts and stylesheets loaded by your WordPress plugins and themes.
Fixing Mixed Content in WordPress Database
Majority of the incorrect URLs will be images, files, embeds, and other data stored in your WordPress database. Let’s fix them first.
All what you need to do is find all mentions of your old website URL in the database that started with http and replace it with your new website URL that starts with https.
You can easily do this by installing and activating the Better Search Replace plugin. For more details, see our step by step guide on how to install a WordPress plugin.
Upon activation, you need to visit Tools » Better Search Replace page. Under the ‘Search’ field, you need to add your website URL with http. After that, add your website URL with https under the ‘Replace’ field.
Below that, you will see all your WordPress database tables. You need to select all of them to run a thorough check.
Lastly, you need to uncheck the box next to ‘Run as dry run?’ option, and then click on ‘Run Search/Replace’ button.
The plugin will now search your WordPress database for URLs starting with http and will replace them with secure https URLs. It may take a while depending on your WordPress database size.
Fixing Mixed Content Errors in WordPress Theme
Another common culprit causing mixed content error is your WordPress theme. Any decent WordPress theme following WordPress coding standards will not cause this issue.
First, you will need to use your browser’s Inspect tool to find the resources and where they are loading from.
After that, you will need to find them in your WordPress theme and replace them with https. This will be a little difficult for most beginners, as you will not be able to see which theme files contain these URLs.
Fixing Mixed Content Errors Caused by Plugins
Some mixed content resources will be loaded by WordPress plugins. Any WordPress plugin following WordPress coding standards will not cause mixed content errors.
We don’t recommend editing WordPress plugin files. Instead, you need to reach out to the plugin author and let them know. If they do not respond or are unable to fix it, then you need to find a suitable alternate.
Note: If for some reason, you’re still encountering mixed content error, then we recommend using the Really Simple SSL plugin temporarily, so your users are not impacted while you fix the issue on a staging website or hire a developer.
Submit Your HTTPS Site to Google Search Console
Search engines like Google consider https and http as two different websites. This means you will need to let Google know that your website has moved to avoid any SEO issues.
To do that, you just need to go to your Google Search Console account and click on ‘Add a Property’ button.
This will bring up a popup where you need to add your website’s new https address.
After that, Google will ask you to verify ownership of your website. There are several ways to do that, select any method and you will instructions to verify your site.
Once your site is verified, Google will start showing your search console reports here.
You also need to make sure that both the https and http versions are added in your Search Console.
This tells Google that you want the https version of your website to be treated as the primary version. Combined with the 301 redirects that you setup earlier, Google will transfer your search rankings to the https version of your website, and you will most likely see improvements in your search rankings.
We know that we did when switched our websites from http to https.
We hope this article helped you add HTTPS and SSL in WordPress. You may also want to see our ultimate WordPress security guide with step by step instructions to keep your WordPress site secure.
DNS prefetching is an attempt to resolve domain names before a user tries to follow a link. This is done using the computer’s normal DNS resolution mechanism.
The main reason for rel=dns-prefetch to exist is to speed up the way web pages load when they are using different domains for page resources. This process is often called “DNS prefetching“.
The WordPress link looks like this:
<link rel='dns-prefetch' href='//s.w.org' />
Remove DNS-Prefetch from WordPress site
To remove the DNS-Prefetch link from WordPress wp_head hook is not very hard.
You can add the following code to your functions.php to remove DNS-Prefetch link from your header:
If you are looking to hide the WordPress CMS from hacker bots download the Hide My WP Ghost plugin. The plugin hides the DNS Prefetch link, Comments, Generator Tag and more.
Generator META is usually used to point to the authors of the services used inside a website. Lately, more and more WordPress plugins authors are adding their generator METAs in source-code.
Hide My Wp Ghost brings a complex level of security through obscurity and protection against hackers’ bots.
A reason to change the common paths in WordPress is to be able to hide these paths and prevent script injections into your vulnerable plugins and themes.
Note! The paths will not be physically changed by the plugin so that all the previous settings will go back to normal in case you deactivate the plugin.
This solution is simple, but it involves editing a core WordPress file.
First, access the root directory of your WordPress installation using the File Manager in your web hosting CPanel or using an sFTP client. Then find a file named wp-config.php and open the file to edit.
Then add the following line in the wp-config file at the beginning of the file:
It was a real challenge to hide paths in CSS files but we managed to find a solution that will not affect the load on the web page.
Since version 4.2, you can use Hide My WP Ghost together with Autoptimize plugin and the plugin will look into the /wp-content/cache directory and change all the common paths.
We’ve tested the plugin with Wp-Rocket, Elementor, W3 Total Cache, Autoptimize, WP Fastest Cache and all these plugins passed the tests successfully.
I’m usually asked if there is a chance to completely hide a website from WordPress theme detectors.
It’s a good question, but usually, the real question behind it is if there is a chance to protect the website so that hackers will not be able to attack it anymore.
Because the CSS and JS are called statically for a good loading speed of the entire website, Hide My WP Ghost will not change the paths and remove the comments within the website theme style.
If you really want to change the paths and remove the theme comments, you can set Hide My WP Ghost to load it dynamically.
Method #1 – Change wp-content/uploads with wp-config.php
This solution is simple, but it involves editing a core WordPress file.
First, access the root directory of your WordPress installation using the File Manager in your web hosting CPanel or using an FTP client. Then find a file named wp-config.php and open the file to edit.
Then add the following line in the wp-config file:
Hide My WP Ghostworks well with all the WordPress builders. Once you save the page, Hide My WP Ghost Plugin will know what to do to hide the on-page paths and change them with the new one.
URL Mapping was created to help you change JS and CSS URLs that Hide My WP Ghost didn’t change into custom once without breaking the website functionality.
If WPPlugins founds any security issue, it means that your WordPress CMS is detected and hackers will find these breaches.
If you don’t act NOW, the hacker’s bots will get into your website sooner or later. If they do, they usually remove the website content entirely and steal your database information. The loss and recovery costs can be … oh well … you do the math.
Below you will find more details and solutions for each security breach we found:
We work hard to make Hide My WP Ghost plugin for keeping your website safe using security through obscurity and at the same time to have a fast loading website with good SEO results in Google search engine.
Most hackers are using bots who access the vulnerable plugins path and inject javascript or SQL to get valuable data from your website. We made sure that Hide My WP Ghost will protect you from these types of attacks.
