 * Mainly looking prevent scanners from identifying what plugins are installed and
   what their version numbers are. Same goes for themes.

 * Hi [@besweeet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/besweeet/),
 * Thank you for reaching out!
 * It’s more than possible to hide the theme from detectors and hacker bots **[as you can see in this article](https://hidemywpghost.com/how-to-hide-from-wordpress-theme-detectors/)**.
 * And you can hide plugins as well, but it’s not something that we recommend doing
   as it can cause issues on your site. **[Learn more about it here](https://hidemywpghost.com/hiding-plugins-like-woocommerce-and-elementor/)**.
 * Let us know if you have any other questions.
