It is wired plugin. It is still working even after I deactivated it.
I tried all possible methods to clear the cache, but the effect of this plugin is still remaining.

Might have been a good plugin, if only it wasn’t so buggy. I tested it on multisite, so maybe in simple WP installation it works fine.

I added this module to my site and broke the site. Somehow, my issue is the reverse, it doesn’t work and not effective at all. I remove the module, but somehow the site is still not functional. Had to restore it. How would it break this? Didn’t even do anything, deployed the module, configured the passwd, settings and save.
Brand new WordPress deployment…

Hide My Site plugin is perfect! It does what you need it to do, easily. And when you don’t need it anymore, it’s easy to disable. If you do need support the author responds to email. 5 Stars!

I wrote to u about the issue
Another issue that table is not deleted when the plugin is deleted.

Worked for protecting site but when it came to going live the Password protect page still comes up. No help from the developer. STAY AWAY!!!

First, I see that the latest version of WP is shown as possibly not compatible with this plugin. So, i’ll give em that. Even though it’s only 5 months old.
Given that. I could not make this plugin work. Frustrating. Testing various options within the plugin but password form page would never accept it and it just kept showing the form to enter the password.
Using on local dev folder. Hard to recommend though.

Does Hide My Site prevent Search Engines from spidering the site?

Installing this plugin was quick and easy.
However, important settings, like admin being able to bypass password protected pages automatically did not work. It showed up despite being logged in as admin…EVERY TIME I WENT TO CHECK EDITS I MADE IN ADMIN.
So, I unchecked the box for password protection in the plugin settings, then deactivated the plugin, then deleted the plugin.
Password protection still appears. Cleared site cache, cleared browser cache. Still appears. IN ALL BROWSERS.
To have a decent aesthetic, plugin developer would like you to go PRO for a fee. I cannot imagine how one can CHARGE for a plugin that won’t do what it’s supposed to do in the free version.
BEWARE. There are other plugins that do this for free…with all options available without going ‘Pro’.

Hi !
I would like to protect only some category on my website. Not all the website. Can I do that we this plug-in ? Or if not, do you know another plug-in that I can use to protect with a password just some categories of my website ?
(I know that wordpress have a function to do hat, but I don’t want to do it, because I have a lot of page/article to protect and it will be too long to do it.)
Thank you !

Saw this posted by a previous user – with no answer. Same case for me – certain users get asked for the password on every single page.

The plugin worked great while I needed it, but now I need it off so my website will be viewable to the public and it is still activated. Removing password info, unchecking enable, deactivating the plugin, and deleting it has no effect. I stopped it hours ago and it’s still password protecting my site and I can’t get it to stop. Now, I’m faced with the prospect of not being able to disable it. How on earth do I get it to just stop???
Edit: After several days after turning off the plugin and turning off a cache plugin I hadn’t known was installed, it was finally disabled. Guessing it was the cache plugin that prevented it from disappearing, but still weird that it persisted even days after turning the plugin off.

This plugin put my entire site behind a password wall, just like I wanted.

This plugin only prevents access to the Home Page.
If someone knows the exact URL of a subpage – which will be the case if he had once access to the whole site – he will be able to access such subpage by simply using the wohle link (URL) to access directly the subpage.

Great way to hide our site while it’s in development. Works flawlessly. Love the IP whitelist as well.
