  1. hi how do you do!! can you solve my problem ?….. in my WordPress blog posts I want to display “keyword based related posts” under my blog post ……. can you solve this:)

    1. Hi Ajit, I haven’t done that before. But related posts plugins automatically show related posts based on title, categories or tags. If you have posts with similar keywords in the same category, which is a good idea anyway, you could use a regular related posts plugin.

      If you need to have specific keywords in the related posts then you could create a custom field using ACF. In that custom fields enter the keyword for each post. Then you’d have to use some custom code similar to what is on this help page https://support.advancedcustomfields.com/forums/topic/how-to-show-related-posts-based-on-custom-fields/ to find and display other posts based on keywords. You would probably have to hard code the keywords that similar and add new ones each time there is a post with a new similar keyword.

  2. Hello, thank you for this video. I found it very informative and useful. By the way, I bought three codes from your affiliate link. Always delightful to support hard work. Best regards.

    1. Sweet, thanks! Much appreciated 🙂 I bought the max number of codes as well, I think it was three for this one.

  3. Hi Bjorn, thank you for another amazing video! I usually use iThemes security for my websites. Do I still need to use it while using this plugin? Thank you!

    1. I wondered about that too. On the website is says they work together with iThemes working to block attacks actively (firewall) while Hide My WP Ghost hides common hacking doors (folders and files).

    2. They can work together as long as you’re careful. Problems arise when you have two plugins doing the same things on the same site. If you’re using both iThemes and HideMyWP then make sure you go through all the settings and make sure you don’t have overlapping settings activated in both plugins.

    3. Can you make a video that speaks about how to use both HMWG with Ithemes bro .. .. thanks .. sure I’ll use your affiliate link 💗💞

  4. Your content is very helpful. My go-to YouTube channel for WordPress. Thank you for producing all these videos.

    1. Thanks man! I appreciate it 🙂 I’ll do my best to continue being helpful.

  5. Hello there, Do we need other major security plugins along with it like wordfence free version. Or do you think this is an almost complete security plugin and we don’t need others?

  6. I wonder how on Earth I missed this AppSumo deal? Thanks for another great app assessment.

  7. hello can you help me with my problem. I changed th setting of the simulate drupal regio and ive set it to version 8 but when i scan the site in what wp, It shows wordpress detected

  8. Thanks for the great tutorial! I made these changes but now when using Elementor and trying to preview changes, I see only the plain theme skeleton and don’t see any of the changes I made. Things really looks messed up after applying those changes, any idea why?
