Adds a bit of obfuscation to hide the WordPress version number and generator tag that many sniffers detect automatically from view source. Option available to selectively exclude any style or script file from version info removal process.
You can enable/disable each removal options from admin dashboard:
Removed all my generator tags but one, created a support request for the last one and it got solved lightning fast. Plugin doesn’t slow down page generation if anything it speeds it up. Can’t ask for more than that.
does exactly what you want. please continue to develop this great plugin!
The plugin has many options for disabling meta tags, and it’s easy to use!
