    Hi Suman,

    I’ve noticed that since the release of v 6.x, Wappalyzer still detects quite a lot of information about the site, mainly the fact that it’s WP, on some pages (but not all).

    This previously wasn’t the case with 5.x versions of the plugin. Now, I don’t know if this is a wappalyzer improvement causing this or something HMWP related however I’d like to request your feedback on the topic to help bolster hiding capabilities.

    Many thanks in advance.

    Yes, renaming wp-admin path name is working fine. WHile renaming wp-admin path name, you should follow the steps very carefully. And make sure that the replacement word you select for wp-admin is not already being used as post/page slug or any other slug.

    HMWP line should be added before require_once(…) in wp-config.php

    It seems like API Base and API Query fields are not renamed? Please rename them to something like this – https://www.screencast.com/t/0i46ggGc

    Hey Suman,

    I tried that previously and it caused issues with certain functions of the site so I had to revert.

    I can say that prior to version 6 of the plugin, this all worked fine, I had the exact same configuration as I do now and wappalyzer was not detecting WP.
