Smart User Slug Hider

The Smart User Slug Hider is a securityfocused plugin designed to enhance the safety of your WordPress site.

It works by hiding usernames in the URLs of Author Pages, replacing them with 16digit coded strings.

This plugin is easy to use, with no settings to adjust simply install it and let it work its magic.

If you ever decide to deactivate it, your WordPress site will revert to its default behavior.

The plugin is compatible with PHP 7.2 and newer, thanks to its Future Proof Mode that uses a different encryption method.

As of version 4.00, only this new method is available, as the old method has been completely removed.
