Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records Hide Posts version 2.1.2 as active, updated 3mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Publish it — without putting it everywhere. Hide Posts gives you a simple checklist on every post, page, or product that controls exactly where it appears: keep a post out of the homepage and archives, off the search results, out of your RSS feed and REST API, or invisible to XML sitemaps and Yoast SEO — while it stays perfectly reachable at its own URL.
Perfect for syndication-only articles, landing pages, evergreen content you don’t want cluttering the blog roll, or products that should only be found via direct link.
Try the Demo
Choose exactly where a post is hidden:
Site pages — homepage, blog page, category, tag, author, and date archives, search results, post navigation (previous/next), and the Recent Posts widget
Feeds & APIs — RSS feed and the REST API
Sitemaps & SEO — WordPress core XML sitemaps, Yoast SEO sitemap, Yoast breadcrumbs, and Yoast internal link suggestions
WooCommerce — hide products from the shop page, product category pages, and the store REST API
Built for real editorial workflows:
Full Block Editor support — a native sidebar panel with all hide options, plus the classic metabox
Works with the Query Loop block and custom queries
Enable hiding for any Custom Post Type from the settings page
Bulk Edit and Quick Edit support for managing many posts at once
“Hidden On” column in the posts list so you always see what’s hidden where
Custom database table and layered caching — no postmeta bloat, no slow queries on busy sites
