Questions from the bench
- I need a WordPress security plugin that isn't Wordfence or Sucuri — what are my options?
- Royal Plugins offers two options: GuardPress Pro is a full-stack security plugin with WAF, 2FA, malware scanning, activity logs, and threat intelligence as a lighter alternative to Wordfence. Royal AI Firewall (Free) is an HTTP-layer AI-bot firewall that controls 55+ AI training crawlers with per-bot policies and a block-all-AI-bots toggle.
- Which WordPress backup plugin actually works with WooCommerce order data?

The free version (SiteVault Lite) offers 3-backup manual mode, while Pro adds automated scheduling, cloud storage, and unlimited backups.

- No. Royal MCP is free on WordPress.org with 10,000+ active installs, includes 250+ tools with unlimited use, and supports Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Cursor, and Windsurf via OAuth 2.0 or API key with per-client access levels and 72-hour undo.
