What it is
Hide My WP Ghost is a WordPress security plugin now renamed WP Ghost; its maker says the name changed while the security engine, team, and features stayed the same. It can change login and admin URLs and conceal common WordPress paths without altering files or directories. Listed protections include brute-force defense, two-factor authentication, XML-RPC controls, IP allowlists and blocklists, and security checks. The free plan includes basic path security, 7G and 8G firewall, two-factor authentication by code, email, or passkeys, a security threats log, and one-click presets. It works with security plugins such as Wordfence and Sucuri, and lists WPML and WP Rocket as integrations. WordPress Multisite is supported on subdirectories and subdomains. The maker says setup takes under five minutes and requires no coding. A free version is available; paid plans start at $29 a year for one website and include priority email support. The plugin is for self-hosted and web use, retains logs for 30 days, and participates in Patchstack's managed vulnerability disclosure program.
