 * Hi. I tried this plugin by activating the theme hiding and stylesheet hiding,
   with using different names for such. Then checked the source code generated (
   View Source Page). The original theme and styles.css were still there. Any ideas?
   I cleaned cache (WP super cache), nothing. I checked with Incognito, same nothing.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fplugin-doesnt-work-267%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hello,
    I just checked your website and I found that WordPress version and theme
   are hidden. The problem is with plugins. Have you tried to rename them?

 * Hi,
    As [@octapus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/octapus/) mentioned, if
   there are other elements in your HTML e.g. plugins name, this can reveal your
   WordPress. If you fill in the option for the theme, the plugin will change the
   paths, the style filename, and strip off all theme meta-data. If this does not
   happen, there must be a cache on your site, try to check the HTML source while
   being logged-in, as generally, the caches are not triggering while being connected
   to the dashboard. Further, if the changes do not reflect while loading the site
   anonymously, there is a cache which needs to be cleared, either a plugin on your
   site, a cache at the server level, or at CDN ( if use such service ).
 * Thanks
