Hi list,

I wrote an article about securing Wordpress that I would like to share. It shows some unusual (yet simple) methods to 
find out the wordpress version (even when the generator is disabled), internal directory paths, etc.

What do you guys think?

It also has a link to a simple online tool to scan a wordpress installation remotely and try to find internal paths 
leaking, versions, themes, plguins ,etc:

Thanks,
