 * I wish to ensure that there is no reference to WordPress in text in the browser
   tabs in, say, Chrome.
 * I’ve dealt with this but the only exception is the Erident plugin, where the 
   login page browser tab text is appended by ‘WordPress’. The site name and tag
   line are the ‘period’character.
 * Is there any path or action I can take to avoid this ? I don’t want to advertise
   this to casual hackers.
 * Thanks in advance for any advice / solution
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fbrowser-tab-text-problem%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * First of all, I want to say that, it’s not Erident Plugin, but WordPress itself
   is putting that text on your Login Page’s tab. Also, there are a dozen different
   ways to identify a site as a WordPress site. Trying to hide that is a waste of
   effort.

 * Hi Libin
    “a waste of effort” Point taken. Sorry for jumping the gun here, and
   I can see that now I’ve dug deeper. I realise that people can use ‘builtwith.
   com’ or just invoke login to detect a site was WordPress, but I just thought 
   it better not to advertise it overtly.
 * Thanks for the link, and the plugin is excellent.

 * Yeah, that’s true. Thanks for the compliment.
 * It will be great if you can give a [5-star rating](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/erident-custom-login-and-dashboard/reviews/)
   for the plugin in the reviews section. 🙂
