UnIdentifyWP focuses on hiding your plugins and themes by masking paths and folder names.
It reduces the information attackers can use, making your site harder to target.
Un-IdentifyWP is built to handle this safely. However, because every hosting environment is different, you should:
- Take a backup before major changes
- Test on a staging site if possible
- Check key features (homepage, login, cart, etc.) after enabling masking
Once configured correctly, your site will function normally with masked paths.
No. UnIdentifyWP does not physically rename any folders on your server.
What Un-IdentifyWP does is:
- Generate custom public URLs for these paths
- .htaccess / Nginx rewrite rules to map those public URLs back to the real internal folders
In most cases, yes.
Because Un-IdentifyWP works at the URL and server-rule level:
- Caching plugins will cache the masked URLs
- CDNs will serve assets from those masked URLs
You should clear all caches (plugin, CDN, browser) after enabling or changing the settings, then test pages in an incognito window to confirm everything is working as expected.
Yes, in the most important way:
Even if a visitor uses View Source or Inspect Element, they will see masked paths instead of:
/wp-content/plugins/plugin-name/…/wp-content/themes/theme-name/…
They can still see the HTML (no plugin can truly block that), but:
- They cannot easily detect which plugins or themes you are using
This is exactly what you want when trying to secure your WordPress site against fingerprinting.
UnIdentifyWP is designed to be theme- and plugin-agnostic, because it works at the URL/path level.
In most cases, it will work fine with:
- Popular themes and page builders
- WooCommerce and other major plugins
- Custom themes and child themes
If you have heavily customized or hard-coded paths in custom code, you should:
- Review and update those paths where necessary
- Test your critical flows (checkout, membership, forms, etc.) after enabling UnIdentifyWP
No.
Think of Un-IdentifyWP as:
“Stop telling attackers exactly what I am running.”
You still need:
- A firewall or security plugin to block malicious traffic
- A malware scanner to detect infections
- Regular updates and secure hosting
Un-IdentifyWP works alongside these tools to make your WordPress site more secure overall.
Yes.
If you misconfigure settings or run into issues:
- You can simply de-activate the plugin and everything will be back to normal
- You might need to re-save permalinks from
Settings --> Permalinks
It is always recommended to:
- Backup your site before making structural changes
- Test on staging for mission-critical websites
Yes. It is especially valuable for:
- Agencies that want to protect their stack and processes
- Freelancers who provide WordPress security as a service
- Anyone who does not want every competitor or client to see exactly which plugins are in use
