SiteGuard WP Plugin

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 35% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Modeled within the band wp.org reports; tightens as we track daily.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   When you log out, the session is not closed and you can still go to wp-admin. Also, redirecting wp-admin to the custom login page doesn’t help with security

   誰でもユーザーを登録できるサイトを作っているのですが、ログイン保護機能を利用しています。スパムアカウントが減りました。

   管理ページアクセス制限を有効にすると、サイトヘルスで「サイトでループバックリクエストが完了できませんでした」という文字が出るが、この問題、site-health.phpを除外設定にしてもなお出続ける。 制限をOFFにすると、出なくなる。 バージョン「1.5.1」でのアップデートで、この問題は解決したようです。ありがとうございました。 This topic was modified 5 years, 5 months ago by tsutlnps149.

   ワードプレスのデフォルトの仕様だと思いますが、/wp-admin/にアクセスするとプラグインで変更したログイン画面のurlヘリダイレクトされてしまいますのでこちらの改善もお願いいたします。 例） example.co.jp/wp-admin ↓　リダイレクト example.co.jp/プラグインで設定したログイン画面のURL文字列 個人的には下記のコードで対処しています。 add_action('init', 'remove_default_redirect'); add_filter('auth_redirect_scheme', 'stop_redirect', 9999); function stop_redirect($scheme) { if ( $user_id = wp_validate_auth_cookie( '', $scheme) ) { return $scheme; } global $wp_query; $wp_query->set_404(); get_template_part( 404 ); exit(); } よろしくお願いいたします。 This topic was modified 7 years, 7 months ago by Anonymous User 16694661.
