Breaking Site + Plugins Name Hide not working

[dej8]

Hey guys,

The plugin is breaking my site! I try to go step by step, however it is breaking my site. I reset all settings and it comes back! – thank goodness 🙂

Also, when I change the plugin/folder names, the plugins on my site are still showing its actual name and is not changing properly.

Can you investigate this for me please.

Thank you!

Hi, depending on your websever and WP installation, you have to follow one of these:

1) If it’s Apache webserver and WP single site installation, then follow these steps (your site’s htaccess file should be writeable):

– goto HMWP >> ‘Start’ Tab >> ‘Medium Privacy – More Compatibility’ scheme >> click ‘Save Settings’

2) If it’s Apache server and WP multisite, follow these steps:

– goto HMWP >> ‘Start’ Tab >> select ‘Medium Privacy – More Compatibility’ scheme >> click ‘Save Settings’
– goto HMWP >> ‘Start’ Tab >> click ‘Multi-site Configuration’
– now use a FTP program or your host file manager and add those lines to your htaccess file (after RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ [-])

3) If it’s Nginx server and WP single site, follow these steps:

– goto HMWP >> ‘Start’ Tab >> ‘Medium Pripacy – More Compatibility’ scheme >> click ‘Save Settings’

– In Start tab you should see Nginx Configuration button. If you don’t see this button, add &nginx_config=1 to HMWP settings page URL to see Nginx rewrite rules. For example:
http://yourdomain.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=hide_my_wp&nginx_config=1

– Now add those lines (rewrite rules) to your Nginx configuration file. It’s usually located in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf or /etc/nginx/conf/nginx.conf or /etc/nginx/sites-available/domainname.com

– restart nginx server

Please let us know if it’s still the issue.

it says

nginx: [emerg] “rewrite” directive is not allowed here in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:47
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed

after i put these lines to /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

Hi avardar, you need to put HMWP rules in server block of nginx.conf file.
Also generate debug report (from HMWP start tab) and post it here as private reply.

I tried to put to nginx.conf but i got this error

nginx: [emerg] “rewrite” directive is not allowed here in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:47
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed

avardar, please post your nginx.config file’s content here (as private reply) after you have added HMWP rules in it.

Within http{ } block above add server{ } block and add HMWP rules within this server block (remove HMWP rules from bottom of nginx config file)

[avardar]

Ok i could add them and restarted

[avardar]

By the way i have both apache and nginx working together
I can also use .htaccess file

does this affect anything ?
