What’s New in Version 1.5.0?

Module 3: File & Environment Hardening Guard

One of the most important security improvements in this release is the new File & Environment Hardening Guard.

This module helps protect production websites by preventing unauthorized modifications that could compromise your website.

• Prevent Theme Installation
• Disable Plugin Uploads
• Disable Theme Uploads
• Restrict unauthorized software deployment
• Protect production environments from accidental changes

Why It Matters

Many WordPress websites become vulnerable because administrators or compromised accounts accidentally install plugins, themes, or edit PHP files directly from the dashboard.

The File & Environment Hardening Guard significantly reduces these risks by locking down sensitive administrative functions while keeping your website secure and stable.

This makes it especially useful for:

• Production websites
• Business websites
• Agency-managed websites
• Client websites
• Membership sites
• WooCommerce stores

Module 4: HTML Sitemap Generator Engine

The second major feature introduced in Version 1.5.0 is the HTML Sitemap Generator Engine.

Unlike XML sitemaps designed primarily for search engines, this module creates an organized, user-friendly HTML sitemap that improves both website navigation and SEO.

Simply place the shortcode ( Given to the plugin settings ) anywhere on your website:

The sitemap is automatically generated based on your selected settings.

Available Sitemap Filters

The HTML Sitemap Generator allows you to include or exclude different content types.

Supported sections include:

• Pages
• Blog Posts
• Custom Post Types
• Public Taxonomies

Everything is managed through an independent settings panel inside the plugin.
