Make sure you checkout the WPSupport store. where you can get direct access to some of the best plugins we have reviewed located all in one place. We do not host the plugins but provide the link to download it direct from WordPress.org or the plugin developer, and they may occasionally have an affiliate link but not too often since that adds a whole new layer of work to what I have to do.

The Lowdown:
It will happen to you sooner or later that you will need to either hide or show specific wides on a page or to members only. This plugin makes that task easy to accomplish  Just install and on each widget you need to focus on set it to show or hide on specific pages. If you need it to show or hide to members only this plugin makes that task easy also.

We all know about the REST API by now (you know flying cars and everything  but some changes have been happening with it. Since 4.7 it became possible for people to make inquires to you website for information such as user list. This plugins shuts down all that functionality, if you are not using any of the REST features you may want to use this simple method for shutting down the REST API.

The Lowdown:
Before you shut down the REST API you might want to check and see if you are using it and not knowing or to evn just have a peek at what is being requested on your web site. This plugin makes that task easy, by just installing it and then checking the log to see what is being access on your site for what purpose.

Have a video that you want your website viewers to watch? Watching a video would typically restrict the viewer from viewing the rest of the webpage. Shrinking video solves that problem by shrinking the video to the upper right corner of the screen once the user scrolls past the video. Once the user scrolls back up to the page the video unshrinks and returns to its normal position.
