it was time, finally we found some and could catch up with our open todo list
the cache logic and compressio n ratio is outstanding, unchanged and hard to beat by any competidor, our hit ratios show that very clear, this thing is effective
what’s new, some code enhancements, better minification regex, distinguishing is_frontpage caching, the missing slash fix, and now the admin can get daily hit/miss reports per email, also the emergency alert triggers immediately when something is wrong with the cached or minified output, what was already good, got just a bit better
usage statistics and client surveys confirm it, zero incidents this year, zero bugs and empty debug.logs, what others dream about is our reality, pro-activity is a must

Unleash upgrade is out …
-

now Orthrus is with the herd …
what is the threat?
as any website, wordpress also is exposed to whatever strives the savage public grounds, its self defense is weak and wouldn’t withstand any real attack, worse, it leaves all doors open for his associates – the plugins – even part of its own core can not be trusted …
the inside threat is real and imminent!
what does Orthrus do?
its very first task is holding the herd together and whatches that nobody misbehaves, that no one steels or poisens the food of others and that they all move into the same direction
Orthrus protects with exponential force the essentials, so that mother cows and calves never can be attacked by camuflaged wolves
it is the the fierce gate keeper, if for any reason somebody manages to break the gate, Orthrus is able to reconstruct it instantly and seal it for good
once you put Orthrus out there with your herd you can relax, nothing can happen unless the heaven falls on your head
what is it really?
hakka Orthrus is the latest security module for our Metro Framework, it fits seamlessly into any wordpress installation and does not require any special knowledge, third party plugins or external libraries
Orthus represents the state of art in modern technology reacting to real incidents, it is autonomous and self containing, even self monitoring
upon installation it creates immutable backups of essential system components, like user and user roles data, theme.json, functions.php and specially htaccess – your security gate
from then on, your site is under Orthrus’s watch without any noticable performance loss – as soon as any modification is detected Orthrus sends an admin alert and – if necessary – it instantly replaces the altered file with the save backup
Event: htaccess REC_OK
Time: 2025-11-09 03:09:42
Message: .htaccess was altered and has now been recovered, suspicious file backed up.
Site: https://your.site.com.br
Orthrus monitores itself, sending periodically an Alive Beacon so that the admin doesn’t have to worry about long periods of silence
[Orthus Alive Beacon]
Orthrus periodic self check: I am alive and running!
Active Guard Schedule: 08/11/2025 18:03 Cycle: 900s
for https://your.site.com.br
Orthrus integrates perfectly with our CIO Monitor, a badass underground module which tracks illicit attempts, it repells and logs suspicious activity on xmlrpc, login, restapi and more, Orthrus then shields the internal CIO structure
the module has an admin page to set options, like check cycles, monitoring, admin email and more, alongsiede a log incpector and a state report
reclaim your peace of mind
detecting silent core modifications or mailicious plugin activity, as well as any outside threats can be let in Orthrus’s hands – you rest, Orthrus watches – neutralizes attempts before causing any harm
your site isn’t just online anymore, it is save now -

there is only one limit …
it is the one you set in your mind, it is your limit and not an universal limit
walking beyond the limit is where things happen, and that, is now the case with our hakka underground framework, the long work pays off, things came together and we’re entering a new level
we don’t know yet if it is mutation or transformation, but we’re letting behind the well known plugin structure and are in the module phase, integration in progress
best of all, it is completely compatible, we can even run some of our plugins in parallel with the underground frame, partially plugins, partially modules and for some time the switch can be done by the site admin instantly, that is a kind of rollback function case something unpredicted happens
and not to forget, the whole undergraound frame, whether plugin or modules, is fully operational in parallel with any native wp setup with block based themes
have a look at the actual status of development:soon we are back with more news about this giant step in wp enhancement, some say we are fighting wp, that’s not true, we detect problems and come up with alternative solutions, we give more power to wordpress, return some lost functionalçity and enhance drastically the user experience in terms of performance, image handling and specially in usuability, without having to read a manual you can take a photo anywhere, upload from your device and write a post without fiddling with layout in less than three minutes, ok, depends on how much you write :)
try it, you won’t go back … -

hakka random image in action
the hakka random image module is a shortcode constructor to display a random image from given source (directory)
it can understand image formats and display them with accurate dimensions according to their original format, landscape or portrait format
the shortcode can be used in any place of your site with different arguments for display width, alignment and source, the img alt tag can also be set individually
it offers additional a blend-in features, as normal blend in from transparent to 0 opacity, and also, the disaply can fade in from on or another side or from below, as you can see above
this module is an important improvement for the limited native wp option in terms of image display and effects
this module can be used as stand-alone plugin in any modern wp block theme with shortcode capability enabled -

almost there … wp UnderGroundFrame
time runs, we too and we are not behind …
the milestone is ready to be set, plugins prepared to go through the migration process, which is quite some systematic work so that all fits together
our own house-made private github-like repository needs still some adjustments to serve the planned by-file-upgrade procedure with rollback function, that’s a fundamental step to enable everybody’s work without worrying about accidental breakages
for whom isn’t up-to-date with the project, our wp-UnderGround-Frame is a subsystem for wordpress, like a plugin, just it is a whole group of plugins working integrated, an autonomous system relying on some wp core functions without disabling anything of the native system, just adding funcionality, and, completely compatible with the native block editor and block themes including third party themes
that means that you can use all native wordpress functions and modules in parallel, nothing is being disabled or restricted, e.g. the user can chose if he preferres wp’s media library or our hakka Image Commander without fiddling with configurations, disabling, re-enabling or whatever
another important aspect, we do not offer these weird “prime” or “premium” upgrade scam crap, here the things are straight, you get what you are told to get, no restrictions, no extramoney, no third party add-ons, no monthly fees or any other mafia crap
and of course you are entitled to not liking it and if there is something we said it does, but doesn’t, we give you your money back, hasslefree, immediately and not that typical dilema of trying to find your fault under a stone in your backyard …
keep watching, more things are coming … -

Contact Hub – Tec Info
the plugin’s settings tab shows what you can do, pretty much self explanatory . . .
important for international users, you can localize the labels for the form, but also just change for fun, you can set a headline or let it blank if you want to use your block editor to add something particulary
by default the font on the form will be the default font family and color for you site or page where yu place it, we might change that and offer a font selector in future
send confirm means that the plugin can send immediately an email back to the client, confirming the received message
any setting goes immediately live soon it is saved, no reload or refresh or new shortcode injection necessary
below you see the contact list, in cronological order, newest first, for any purpose you might want to hold the list items for some time, just mark them read soon you answered one, or delete as well
any received message goes automatically to the email configured, you can also specify a particular sitename for the Contact Hub in order to distinguish it from the site support
anything else? just send a message! -

hakka Contact HUB … released!
some told us we would do it sooner or later, now we did it . . . it’s out, first and stable release of wpHakka Contact Hub . . .
a database centered contact management for requests coming from your website
you get mailed on each new contact, you have a batch in admin menu showing new requests and have an admin page to handle all request on site, you can mark them as read or delete them as you wish
the contact form is a shortcode, so you can place it everywhere from the block editor
looks easy and simple, and it is, but powerful and comes with a modern concept, it has a future proof and secure data evaluation for contact name, email address and undesired links and tags in the message body, super handy and really real life oriented, no blurb, no fancy features, it is what you need, a Contact Hub
doesn’t matter where you are, you don’t lose prospects anymore, all said, news will come and some new feature will be added, best thing for now is try it! here it is, send us a message -

who let the dogs out?
we had to correct a bad choice, the name was wrong, wasn’t really wrong but similar names exist already and also important, that name simple cache doesn’t really say what it is . . . now:
wpHakka UnLeash it is
certainly it describes much better what it is, our cache algorithm is our own C-Library written by our C Coder in charge, quite a master piece like all his creations, it is simple, but in terms of uncomplicated, nothing what could leash the performance, just cruel old style cut-to-the-chase code
ever saw a race car with leather holstering? so now you understand . . . and hakka Unleash doesn’t have brakes either, don’t use it before taking your pills for motion sickness
then there is an + option, for hard core people only, the nitro can with minify activation for html, style and js helps to keep the nose in front of others
see you, maybe just your smoke, but that is the intention . . .
Note: we’re updating the code on your servers as we speak, our website also will be refreshed within this weeks, so don’t miss hakka Simple Cache or S-Cache in your menu, it is hakka UnLeash now

hakka Feed + Gallery is hot
just released, latest hakka Feed with gallery 1.2.1.c is out

count with me and have a look at the 5 column layout below
everything configurable easily, hassle free and works on all vanilla wp installations, nothing else necessary, no dependencies, no paid add-ons, just you, your site and us
and it is not the non-plus-ultra plugin for nothing, because it is not just a latest post page, with one click you change your layout to show as an image gallery . . .
below the 5C layout, here the 3c layout, here the 1C layout, watch it and all in masonry display without that weird extra charge thing . . .
and don’t forget, 5C and 4C might not be the best for viewing on mobile screens, but on PC it rocks, we have a detection active which then, when columns are set to more than 3, it displays on mobile just 3, on PC or other large enough screens all 4 or 5.
this option is now enabled for this presentation, in order to see how 5C looks like with 5 Cols open it from a computer or tablet screen

are they after us?
only if it were for working too much . . .
we just finished an important upgrade for IIBI, now it is IIBI-3R which tames the gutenberg editor’s rediculous behaviour bouncing around like a henn with head just chopped off when you try to create a group with two or more rows holding a single column each of them and then breaking by insert an image . . .
only real hardcore hakka know how to do that without major brain damage . . .
Inser Image Block by ID 3R (with group of three rows) is what you can’t miss, only who got through the above described pain and went through psyquiatric treatment know what we’re talking about, most people just give up . . .
NOW the pain is over and site malker can do in a minute what took before 30 or even hours . . . be our guest and ask for IIBI-3R, install it and use it and start laughing or crying about the time you spend with that native shit they offer you . . .
best of all?
no dependencies, no extra paid upgrades, no hidden faults, just pure fun . . .
come and get it . . .

reactions … the search is over

because we have it now, the ultimate post reactions bar . . .
‘wpHakka reactor’ is live now
as all we do, it’s not perfect haha, but better then what is out there in the wild world of wp plugins . . . why? look:
– it works!
– if something comes up, we fix it!
– visitor clicks to show his emotion, the counter is updated immediately
– visitor can unclick
– clicks have visual confirming the action, not only count update
– visitor come back tomorrow and add another like
– administrator can choose which reactions appear from options: like, love, laugh, wow, sad and angry
– admin interface allows count corrections
– admin can choose position left-middle-right below the post content
– admin can choose color for the counters and other styles
– reaction bar can be disabled/re-enabled without losing counts
– full working on brave, chrome, chromium, firefox, kiwi, opera and mi-browserone differential is that our reactions are impersonated, we think it doesn’t matter who clicked and so we don’t track IPs, logged-in users or visitors, full privacy awareness and incognito reactions
