The EDZNET WordPress Plugin Suite: Five Free Plugins for a Faster, Safer, Smarter Site

Five free WordPress plugins from EDZNET — HTTPS fixer, admin hardening with 2FA, CAPTCHA-free spam defence, zero-config full-page caching, and IP geolocation. All in one place.


We build and run WordPress sites every day, and over the years we found ourselves reaching for the same handful of fixes over and over — mixed-content errors, brute-forced admin accounts, form spam, slow page loads, and a need to know (and control) exactly where visitors come from. So we turned each one into a free plugin.

Today the full set lives on WordPress.org under the EDZNET name. Every one of them is free, lightweight, privacy-conscious, and deliberately zero-configuration — install, activate, and the problem is solved. Here is the whole suite in one place.

The Five Plugins at a Glance

PluginWhat It FixesBest For
EDZNET WP HTTPSMixed-content warnings and insecure resource URLsEvery site with an SSL certificate
EDZNET Security GuardWeak admin accounts, brute-force logins, privilege escalationMoney sites, agencies, multi-user sites
EDZNET Honeypot + Timing GuardContact Form 7 spam without CAPTCHAsAny site with a contact form
EDZNET Super CacheSlow page loads, missing gzip and cachingSites on shared hosting, Nginx, or LiteSpeed
EDZNET GeolocationRegion-specific content and country/IP blockingInternational stores, lead-gen, abuse control

EDZNET WP HTTPS — Kill Mixed Content for Good

Activate it once and every http:// resource on your front-end is upgraded to https:// — enqueued scripts, styles, attachments, srcsets, thumbnails, avatars, post content and a final output-buffer pass that catches everything else. Zero configuration, no content edits. See the full guide: Mixed Content Explained: How the EDZNET WP HTTPS Plugin Fixes Your Secure Site.

EDZNET Security Guard — Lock Down Administrator Accounts

Two-factor authentication on every admin login, refusal to create new administrator accounts, URL-credential logins returned with a 403, email alerts on admin logins, and one-click account blocking — with the first administrator permanently protected from being locked out. Full breakdown: EDZNET Security Guard: The WordPress Hardening Plugin That Locks Down Administrator Accounts.

EDZNET Honeypot + Timing Guard — Spam Defence Without the CAPTCHA Tax

An off-screen honeypot field, an HMAC-signed timing guard that rejects instant submissions, and gibberish-content detection quietly drop Contact Form 7 spam into a log without a single puzzle for real visitors. How it works: How to Stop Contact Form 7 Spam Without CAPTCHAs.

EDZNET Super Cache — Speed Through a Pre-Boot Page Cache

A full-page disk cache served before WordPress boots, HTTP 304 support, mobile-aware caching, gzip, lazy loading, deferred JavaScript (ad/analytics-safe), and automatic purge-and-preload whenever content changes. No rewrite rules needed — even on Nginx and LiteSpeed. Details: Zero-Configuration Page Caching: How EDZNET Super Cache Makes Your WordPress Site Fast.

EDZNET Geolocation — Know Your Visitors, Control Your Site

Country flags and location data via shortcode, Gutenberg block or widget, country-specific show/hide content that survives caching, visitor country logging alongside comment moderation, and layered IP / country / continent blocking — all configured to be off by default, with no IP retention on the API side.

Free, Data-Minimal, No Configuration

Every plugin here follows the same design rules. They are free, with no paid tiers holding back core features. They are data-minimal — none of them track page views, none of them phone home with behavioural data, and the only plugin that contacts an external service is Geolocation, which uses the EDZNET GEO API strictly for a one-off location lookup with no IP retention on the service side. And they are zero-configuration: activate and move on with your day.

Installing all five takes about the same time as configuring one conventional plugin, and each one solves a problem you would otherwise spend an afternoon researching. If you are rebuilding a site, protecting one, or just shipping faster — this suite covers the basics that matter most.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do these plugins work with my page-builder theme?

Yes. Super Cache explicitly avoids caching builder previews and purges on save, and all five plugins operate independently of how your theme constructs its markup.

Are they compatible with each other?

They are designed to be installed together. Security Guard and Geolocation in particular were built to complement each other: two-factor protection on the account side, country-level access control on the network side.

Do any of them need a paid licence?

No. All five are free on WordPress.org. The only optional cost is EDZNET Geolocation's API usage beyond its 100 free lookups per month — which the average site never reaches.

Will installing all five slow my site down?

No. Super Cache makes it faster, and the others do their work at login, comment, and render time rather than on every visitor request.
