Bug critique depuis la version 2.6 + problème de licence
by Mickael Maury·1 month ago·3 replies

J’utilise SecuPress Pro sur plusieurs sites clients via une licence 25 sites.

Depuis la mise à jour vers SecuPress Pro 2.6, plusieurs sites rencontrent des erreurs fatales liées aux processus en arrière-plan :

Call to undefined method SecuPress_Background_Process_File_Monitoring::is_processing()

ou

Call to undefined method SecuPress_Background_Process_Bad_Plugins::is_processing()

Ces erreurs apparaissent :

  • via WP-Cron
  • lors de l’accès au module File Monitoring
  • parfois directement dans l’administration

Les environnements sont différents (hébergeurs, thèmes, PHP 8.2 / 8.3), ce qui laisse penser à un bug introduit dans la version 2.6.

Autre problème : plusieurs sites perdent aléatoirement la licence premium et basculent en version gratuite alors qu’ils sont toujours listés comme actifs.

Ticket support envoyé, relance, toujours sans réponse à ce jour.

Dommage car le plugin est intéressant sur le principe, mais pour un usage professionnel avec plusieurs sites clients, l’absence de réponse du support est problématique.

Plugin impeccable, support absent
by luciemarceline·2 months ago

J’utilise SecuPress depuis 2 ans, avec une licence pro depuis un an. Ma licence vient d’être renouvelée et ne fonctionne plus pour les nouvelles installations. Par chance, elle fonctionne sur les sites sur lesquelles la licence est déjà activée mais je ne peux plus l’activer sur mes nouveaux sites clients. La seule solution dont je dispose est de repayer une nouvelle licence alors que j’ai des sites disponibles sur l’existante. J’ai contacté plusieurs fois le support par différents moyens, aucun retour. Je suis bien ennuyée de cette situation car j’apprécie ce plugin.

Trop de bugs ces derniers temps
by Jonathan Webpixelia·10 months ago

Jusqu’à présent, je l’installais sur tous mes sites mais ces derniers temps, trop de bugs et des mises à jour toutes les semaines. La version 2.3.16.1 m’a fait perdre une matinée entière pour downgrader à la version 2.3.15 et cerise sur le gateau j’ai du reconfiguré chaque site.

Déçu..

J’espère que l’avenir me fera revenir sur cet avis, en attendant je vais surement me diriger vers une autre solution.

Good plugin and dev support
by Joffrey Nicoloff·1 year ago

Great for protecting your website in a few clicks. Very easy to set up.

The developer responded and acted very quickly when a problem occurred. You can trust him.

As an improvement, I would have appreciated that some options were automatically active by default such as:

  • Use a connection attempt blocker
  • Connection errors
  • Prohibit account enumeration
  • Forbidden identifiers
  • Disable all XML-RPC features
  • Directory Listing
  • PHP disclosure
  • PHP version disclosure
  • WordPress version disclosure
  • Access to bad URLs
  • Protection of readme files and other sensitive files
  • Extension version disclosure
Be Aware
by cencaldave·1 year ago

Customer service and communications when a negative situation is present is a pure zero from my experience. I had an automatic renewal take place that I believed was cancelled and have been trying to over 2 weeks to get a response or engage with the owner of this plugin. Zip, zero, nada. Has my dollars in his account and now seems to consider this a ethical source of income. Just be careful. Also, the plugin was way to much of a problem when I did try to use it. Many better options. And considering the business model that seems to be focused on income over all else, better options may be better.
