Tamper Guard by Xobytes checks protected plugin files and alerts you when someone changes them. Then, it can shut down the protected plugin pages until the user restores the clean files.<\/p>\n<p>If you sell WordPress plugins, you need more than a license key. You also need to know when someone edits your product. Because of that, Tamper Guard adds file integrity checks, license validation, shutdown protection, and site reporting to the plugins you sell.<\/p>\n<h2>How This WordPress Plugin Tamper Detector Works<\/h2>\n<p>Tamper Guard uses a licensed injector and detector system. First, the customer installs the injector. Next, they enter the license key they received from Xobytes. After the license passes, the injector installs the detector and unlocks the protection tools.<\/p>\n<p>From there, the detector protects selected plugin files with signed manifests and file hash checks. As a result, even a small code change can trigger a warning or shutdown response.<\/p>\n<h3>Detect Edited, Missing, or Modified Plugin Files<\/h3>\n<p>This <strong>WordPress plugin tamper detector<\/strong> can catch many file problems. For example, it can detect edited code, missing files, removed guard files, missing manifests, and deleted bootstrap protection code. It can also detect a one-character change inside a protected file.<\/p>\n<p>When Tamper Guard finds a problem, it can show a clear lock page. That page explains why the plugin shut down and tells the user to restore the original clean files. Therefore, your customers know exactly what happened.<\/p>\n<h3>License Validation and Site Protection<\/h3>\n<p>Tamper Guard also connects protection to a license key. So, only approved customers can install and use the detector. In addition, the system can connect a license to a site, check the license status, and report which domain triggered the tamper event.<\/p>\n<p>Need more software tools for your business?

Instead of letting edited code keep running, the system displays a lock message. Then, the user must restore the original file state before they can use the plugin again.<\/p>\n<p>This gives plugin sellers a stronger way to protect product integrity. Also, it helps reduce unauthorized edits, broken support requests, and modified resale copies.<\/p>\n<h3>Site Reporting for Tamper Events<\/h3>\n<p>Tamper Guard can report the site URL, domain, plugin slug, detected issue, and changed file list. Because of this, you can see which installs remain clean and which installs have changed.<\/p>\n<p>You can also review the official <a href=\"https:\/\/developer.wordpress.org\/plugins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">WordPress Plugin Developer Handbook<\/a> to learn more about WordPress plugin development standards.<\/p>\n<h2>Built for WordPress Plugin Developers<\/h2>\n<p>Tamper Guard works well for plugin developers, WooCommerce extension sellers, SaaS builders, AI software creators, and agencies that sell custom WordPress tools. If you sell paid plugins, this tool gives you a simple way to monitor file integrity and respond when someone changes your code.<\/p>\n<h2>Key Features<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>WordPress plugin tamper detector system<\/li>\n<li>License-based injector installation<\/li>\n<li>Hidden detector install flow<\/li>\n<li>File hash verification<\/li>\n<li>Signed protection manifests<\/li>\n<li>Automatic shutdown when tampering appears<\/li>\n<li>Protected plugin lock pages<\/li>\n<li>Site and domain tamper reporting<\/li>\n<li>WooCommerce-style product card on block pages<\/li>\n<li>Built for commercial WordPress plugin sellers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Who Should Use Tamper Guard?<\/h2>\n<p>Use Tamper Guard if you sell commercial WordPress plugins and want a stronger protection layer.
