You need to remove any reference to WordPress and the plugins from the publicly viewable source code or rewrite their output to obfuscate them. That applies to the files referenced in the source code too, such as CSS files and Javascript files. You would also need to rewrite the HTML tag IDs and classes to hide hints to the software in use. That means you would need to rewrite any CSS that applies to those classes and IDs, ditto for Javascript/JQuery. Remember that plugin, theme and core WP updates could undo your changes. You could buffer all page output (inc. external files) with ob_start(), perform the rewrites with regexes then send the file to screen. This would be resource hungry but would make obfuscation of source code fingerprints easier to perform. What you want to do is possible but not necessarily practical. read less

I suggest you to use this plugin WP Hide & Security Enhancer, take a backup before running this plugin, other way is to add Disallow: /wp-content/plugin/ in robots.txt

Hi, I am new to Wordpress and want to create a website for a doctor, similar to Lifeforce. What theme would work best for this kind of content? Each theme description is very similar "responsive website, create custom layouts" etc. How do I figure out which theme to select for my requirement? Has anyone used this theme Elegantthemes. It's a paid one in which it is easy to edit, similar to working in Photoshop. Are there any free themes which have this feature?
Hi, Free themes are having limited options. Always go with premium themes like eleganthemes. But I prefer "Total Theme" it has full customized options. You can customize layout, page, header and footer etc.
