Do I need to change my theme and plugin folders name?

[diegpl]

On your documentation (http://support.wpwave.com/docs/hide-my-wp/#wpmu_config) is saying that I need to change the theme name by myself:
“Note: For performance reasons HMW does not hide theme names in WPMU. Instead you can easily rename themes in wp-content/themes directory (e.g. wp-content/themes/01/ , wp-content/themes/02/). The final result will be something like: /template/01/main.css”

But it is not practical to change the themes name, since it has many regular updates. So, is it possible to change my theme and plugins without rename their folders name or not?

And I got many different answer about this question on the comments (https://codecanyon.net/comments/16057251) why that?

Thank you very much!

Hi, as mentioned in the FAQ (https://codecanyon.net/item/hide-my-wp-amazing-security-plugin-for-wordpress/4177158/faqs/15020), for performance reasons HMWP does not hide theme names in case of WordPress Multisite. But you can rename the theme folder name. This is one time rename and it should not effect the regular theme updates.

For example: If you are using Avada theme and Avada child theme then you can rename these to –

Avada ==> somename
Avada-Child-Theme ==> somename-child (in child theme’s style.css you’ll need to change “Template: Avada” to “Template: somename”)
