Advanced WP Security

Hide My WP Ghost is compatible with most other plugins and themes but sometimes you need an extra tunning to have all the functionality lined up.

Custom Safe URL Parameter

It’s important to have a secure URL when it comes to rollback the settings to default in Hide My WP Ghost.

Customize the safe parameter and make sure you don’t share this information with other people.

To customize the safe parameter, go to Hide My WP > Advanced > Rollback Settings > Custom Safe URL Param and add a custom name.

Load As Must Use Plugin

This option will force Hide My WP Ghost to load as a Must Use plugin in the mu-plugins directory.
This way the plugin will load first and add the security firewall before all the other functions are loaded.

Compatibility with Manage WP plugin and Token based login plugins

To activate this option, switch on Hide My WP > Advanced > Compatibility > Compatibility with Manage WP plugin

Late Loading

This option will force Hide My WP Ghost to load only after all plugins and theme are loaded.

Some cache plugins need this option to be activated if the paths are not changed in frontend, just activate this option and check again.

Compatibility with cache plugins: WP-Rocket , Autoptimize, CDN Enabler, and more.

To activate this feature, switch on Hide My WP > Advanced >Compatiblity > Late Loading

Clean Login Page

Some themes ad hooks in the login page and redirect users to wp-admin on login.
If you change the wp-admin path to a custom path in Hide My WP Ghost, then the wp-admin will be protected and the theme may redirect users to home page instead of the new admin path.

Note! To customize the login redirects for each user role, check the Redirect On Login option.

To make sure the user is redirected to the new wp-admin path on login, activate this option from Hide My WP > Advanced > Compatibility > Clean Login Page.
