Description

Walkiria Maintenance is a lightweight but powerful all-in-one security and maintenance plugin for WordPress.

Features

  • 🔐 Custom Login URL – Hide wp-login.php and wp-admin from attackers and bots. Returns a clean 404 to unauthenticated access attempts.
  • 📂 File Integrity Scanner – Builds a cryptographic baseline (SHA-256) of all your site files and alerts you when anything is added, modified or deleted.
  • 🌐 Uptime Monitor – Checks your site every 30 minutes and sends an instant email alert when your site goes down or comes back up.
  • 🔄 Update Notifications – Daily report of available updates for WordPress core, plugins and themes.
  • 📧 HTML Email Alerts – Beautiful, branded HTML emails for every security event.
  • 🗓️ Scheduled Scans – Configurable daily scan time (synced to your WordPress timezone).

Privacy

This plugin does not collect or transmit any personal data to external servers. All data is stored locally in your WordPress database.

  1. Upload the walkiria-maintenance folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory, or install the plugin directly through the WordPress plugin screen.
  2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen in WordPress.
  3. Go to Settings Walkiria Maintenance to configure alert email, scan time, custom login URL and excluded directories.
  4. Click Run Scan Now to build the initial baseline. Future scans will only alert you about changes.

Will this plugin slow down my site?

No. The file scanner only runs on schedule (once a day by default) or when manually triggered from the dashboard. It has no impact on front-end performance.

What happens if I lock myself out with the custom login URL?

You can deactivate the plugin via FTP/cPanel by renaming the plugin folder, which will restore normal access to wp-login.php.

Does it work with multisite?

Not officially tested with multisite networks. Single-site installations only at this time.

Muy útil para estar avisado sobre el estado de tu web

Me gustó mucho la funcionalidad de enviar alertas cuando el sitio esté offline. Además, te ahorras un plugin porque te enmascara la url del login.

Puse a escanear 15000 archivos de mi web, y lo hizo muy rápido.

1.1.1

  • Security: Hardened all database queries using $wpdb->prepare() with identifier placeholder %i.
  • Accessibility: Added explicit id, for, and aria-label attributes to all settings form inputs and textareas.
  • Accessibility: Marked email layout tables with role="presentation" and row header cells for screen readers.
  • Added: Official GNU General Public License v2 LICENSE.txt file to repository root.
  • Added: Explicit load_plugin_textdomain() call hooked into init.

1.1.0

  • Improved: Full i18n compliance — all strings are now translatable.
  • Improved: Custom login handler correctly resolves relative paths in subdirectory installations.
  • Improved: Scanner no longer checks the deprecated safe_mode PHP ini directive (removed in PHP 7.0).
  • Added: uninstall.php — database table and all plugin options are fully cleaned up on uninstall.
  • Added: sanitize_callback for the custom login slug setting.
  • Fixed: wp_die() messages are now translated and properly escaped.
  • Fixed: Email footer uses gmdate() instead of date() for server-timezone independence.

1.0.2

  • Improved: Custom login now correctly handles subdirectory installations.
  • Improved: path_hash column for reliable DB indexing of long file paths (>191 chars).
  • Added: Automatic DB schema migration via check_upgrade().

1.0.1

  • Added: HTML email templates with branded design.
