Want to know how to hide that a website is using WordPress? How to hide the wp-admin folder? How to change the plugin and image directories? In this article we will teach you how to hide the existence of WordPress on your website. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why do you want to hide your WordPress? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For some developers, it may be embarrassing for some customers to have an idea that a site uses WordPress. I thought so myself, trying several times to hide that my site was WordPress, today I think differently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some believe that it can make an unprofessional image, others believe that it can make the site venerable, but in fact trying to hide the fact of using WordPress is just a whim. I use the WordPress Newsletter myself because it's free. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regardless of the reason, hiding WordPress is not as easy as it looks. A person can easily find out that a site is wordpress by looking at the source code, tags, image links and static files (css, js). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why not hide your WordPress<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As I said earlier, I use the WordPress Newsletter because it is free and unlimited. It sends emails for each new article using a WordPress email along with logos and information that the site uses WordPress. If this is the case, there is no point in hiding the origin of the site. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another reason not to worry about your website using Wodpress is the famous Jetpack CDN. Your images and static files can be safe without using your server's memory using the Jetpack plugin<\/a> hosting on WP domains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another reason for not hiding your WordPress is the great difficulty of doing so. To remove any traces of the existence of WordPress on your site, it will be necessary to modify several CMS files and theme, which can cause bugs when undergoing updates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember that WordPress is a secure system, you will only have problems if you use a bad server and plugins with vulnerabilities. Not to mention that 99% of people who browse your site don't even know what WordPress is and will never know about it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How can anyone find out that a website is WordPress?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A person can easily find out that a website is WordPress by typing \/ wp-admin \/ or \/ wp-login \/ in the website's URL. When opening the source code of the site you can look for links that contain the directory \/ wp-incluides \/ \/ wp-content \/ or anything written WP. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the CSS Classes of the site you will find tags such as page-id, post-id, wp-image and many others. Files like dashicons can prove that a website uses WordPress. Another way is to use sites that detect WordPress, plugins and themes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is, there is no use just hiding the wp-admin or wp-login, if the person wants to know if a website is WordPress, they will get it easily. Unless you decide not to use WordPress anymore (lol). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
