UpdraftPlus is the most trusted and widely used backup and migration plugin for WordPress, installed on more than 3 million websites worldwide. From simple scheduled backups to advanced migrations, it empowers site owners to protect and restore their WordPress environments with ease. With its extensive storage options—including Google Drive, Dropbox, Amazon S3, OneDrive, Azure, Backblaze, and more—UpdraftPlus provides unmatched flexibility.
Now, with its successful Plugin Security Certification (PSC-2025-64590) by CleanTalk, UpdraftPlus is officially recognized as not only the most feature-rich backup solution, but also as one of the most secure. This certification assures WordPress users that the plugin has undergone rigorous security audits to protect against a wide range of vulnerabilities.

WP Activity Log is a powerful WordPress plugin designed to provide detailed, real-time logging of all activities across your WordPress sites and multisite networks. From user login attempts to changes in posts, plugins, themes, and settings, this plugin gives administrators full visibility into everything that happens on their websites.

With its granular event tracking, WP Activity Log helps site owners improve security, accountability, compliance, and troubleshooting. Administrators can detect suspicious activity before it escalates, meet compliance standards such as GDPR and PCI DSS, and streamline user management with accurate records of who did what, when, and from where.

By ensuring every action is logged, WP Activity Log provides a transparent and secure environment, making it a vital tool for businesses, agencies, and security professionals managing WordPress-powered sites.

PHP Compatibility Checker is a WordPress plugin developed by WP Engine that helps site administrators and developers analyze their WordPress themes and plugins for compatibility with modern PHP versions.

As WordPress continues to evolve, maintaining compatibility with supported PHP versions is a crucial factor for both performance and security. Outdated PHP releases no longer receive security updates, leaving websites at risk of vulnerabilities. This plugin empowers users to safely transition to newer PHP versions (up to PHP 8.0) by identifying errors and warnings in their installed codebase.

The tool uses linting technology combined with Tide’s scanning infrastructure to analyze plugin and theme files. It generates detailed reports with file names, line numbers, and descriptions of incompatibilities. Additionally, it recommends plugin or theme updates if newer versions include PHP compatibility fixes.

WP Downgrade | Specific Core Version is a vital WordPress plugin that allows administrators to downgrade or update their WordPress Core to a specific release. Unlike the default WordPress update routine, which only installs the latest release, this plugin provides flexible control over Core updates, enabling users to remain on a previous secure version or selectively update to compatible releases.

This is particularly useful for sites relying on plugins or themes that are not yet compatible with the latest WordPress release. By forcing WordPress to recognize a chosen version as the latest, WP Downgrade simplifies updates while maintaining compatibility and stability.

With the new advanced option, users can manually adjust the download link, enabling tasks like language-specific core downloads or fetching releases from alternative sources—all without compromising security.

Auto Image Attributes From Filename With Bulk Updater (v4.4) is a powerful WordPress plugin designed to automate the generation of essential image attributes—Alt Text, Title, Caption, and Description—directly from image filenames. By restoring and enhancing features that WordPress deprecated in earlier versions, this plugin significantly boosts both SEO and website accessibility.

Properly defined image attributes not only improve Google, Yahoo, and Bing image search rankings, but also ensure compliance with accessibility standards by helping users with visual impairments understand the content of your images.

With its bulk updater, administrators can quickly optimize entire media libraries in a single click, saving valuable time while ensuring consistency across all images.

While its functionality is impressive, security remains a critical factor when embedding third-party scripts and handling visitor interactions. A vulnerable chat plugin could become a direct entry point for attackers—risking data leakage, phishing, and even complete site compromise. Recognizing this, Joinchat version 6.0.6 underwent an extensive Plugin Security Certification process by CleanTalk and has successfully earned PSC-2025-64584.
