Wordpress Plugin Thief

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

If you are found a wordpress website with some plugin that you think it would be suitable for your blog, this is what you can do.

verify blog address (http://www.url.com/blog or http://www.url.com)
add wp-content/plugins/
you will be able to see something like below
Now you have to use some common sense in finding the plugin you are looking for.
If you don’t know, just copy each php file and search for it in google.

for example here is the famous John chow plugins:-

http://www.johnchow.com/wp-content/plugins

NOTE: you will not be able to download them directly from their website because the server will compile the php into html file before sending to you.

ermm, is this some sort of loophole?

i don’t think is a loophole…you should be able to protect the directory…but anyway can only view the file in their plugin folder, and you can’t actually download it.

You can ‘hide’ the directory by placing a blank ‘index.htm’ in the folder.

Yes, it is a loophole.
