 * I want to hide my website from plugins like “wappalyzer” which show that the 
   website is made on Elementor and WordPress – is there any option for this?

 * Hi, thanks for your message. What you’re describing is obfuscation and “hiding”,
   but this is not a security mechanism, and so is not part of Shield, sorry.
 * Thanks for the question!
