 * I recently hardened my website be changing the name of my plugins folder and 
   found that this plugin breaks the site. I’ve had to disable it. But, I thought
   you’d want to know. If you are able to fix it, maybe I can add it back.

 * Hello, [@lenashore](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lenashore/),
 * Thank you for the heads-up. We will try to take into account the renaming of 
   the plugins folder better in the future. Just for the record, could you please
   tell us exactly what technique you have used in order to develop the plugins 
   folder rename?
 * Cheers,
    Takis

 * Sure! I changed it in the wp-config file with these two lines of code:
 * define(‘WP_PLUGIN_DIR’, ‘/home/username/public_html/wp-content/newpluginname’);
   
   define(‘WP_PLUGIN_URL’, ‘[http://www.website.com/wp-content/newpluginname&#8217](http://www.website.com/wp-content/newpluginname&#8217););

 * Hello, [@lenashore](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lenashore/),
 * Thank you for sharing this with us!
 * We had indeed predicted the rename of the `/wp-content` and and the `/wp-content/
   uploads` directories, but not the plugins directory. We will try to incorporate
   this in our future versions!
 * Cheers,
    Takis
