## ཞིབ་བརྗོད།

EnumGuard is a focused WordPress plugin that stops attackers from confirming that
a username or user ID exists. WordPress still prints those signals by default; EnumGuard
closes the usual paths without hiding display names on posts.

Under Settings  EnumGuard you get three tabs:

 * Protections — overview of which discovery paths are closed
 * Settings — toggles and custom login / reset messages
 * About — plugin info

Protections covered:

 * Author ID queries (`?author=1`) that would otherwise redirect to the author archive
 * Author archives and their feeds
 * Author archive links printed in HTML
 * `author-{id}` / `author-{nicename}` body, post, and comment CSS classes
 * Core users sitemap (`/wp-sitemap-users-1.xml`)
 * Unauthenticated `/wp-json/wp/v2/users` (including `?rest_route=`)
 * REST `_embed` author payloads and author link headers
 * Login error messages that distinguish “bad username” from “bad password”
 * Lost-password responses (same confirmation whether the account exists)
 * oEmbed `author_url` / `author_name`
 * XML-RPC user-listing methods, with an optional full XML-RPC disable
 * Author sitemaps and author archive URLs from Yoast, Rank Math, and The SEO Framework

Recommended protections ship enabled. Gutenberg still reaches the users REST API
for logged-in editors. Display names stay visible. Login and reset protections also
cover WooCommerce forms when WooCommerce is active. XML-RPC can be turned off completely
if you do not need Jetpack, pingbacks, or the WordPress mobile app.

## སྒྲིག་འཇུག

 1. Upload the `enumguard` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress.
 3. Open Settings  EnumGuard to review protections.

## FAQ

### Will authors still show on posts?

Yes. Display names stay in content. EnumGuard stops login slugs, author archive 
URLs, and existence oracles—not bylines.

### Does this break the block editor?

No. Logged-in users who can edit posts or list users still reach `/wp/v2/users`.
Guests get a generic 404.

### What about WooCommerce?

Login and lost-password protections apply to the WooCommerce account forms as well
as wp-login.php. Bylines and display names are unchanged.

### What about the WordPress mobile app?

The app uses `wp.getUsersBlogs`. That method is removed while “XML-RPC user methods”
is on. Turn that protection off if you need the app. Do not enable “Disable XML-
RPC.”

### Can I keep author archives for a magazine site?

Yes. Disable “Author archives” and “Author archive links” on the Settings tab. Keep
author ID queries blocked so `?author=1` cannot reveal the nicename.

### Does uninstall remove settings?

Yes. Uninstall deletes EnumGuard options on the current site, and on every site 
in a multisite network.
