Title: SiteSelf Connector Author: Refact Published: 8 سيپٽمبر 2026 Last modified: 8 سيپٽمبر 2026 --- پلگ انس ڳولھيو ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/siteself-connector.svg) # SiteSelf Connector کان: [Refact](https://profiles.wordpress.org/refact/) [ڊائون لوڊ ڪريو](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/siteself-connector.0.6.0.zip) * [تفصيل](https://snd.wordpress.org/plugins/siteself-connector/#description) * [جائزو](https://snd.wordpress.org/plugins/siteself-connector/#reviews) * [تنصيب](https://snd.wordpress.org/plugins/siteself-connector/#installation) * [ترقي](https://snd.wordpress.org/plugins/siteself-connector/#developers) [سھائتا](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/siteself-connector/) ## وضاحت SiteSelf is a service that works on your WordPress site for you — updating content, adjusting your design, keeping an eye on things — and reports back in chat. This plugin is the part that lives on your site, and it exists so your agent can work on your theme and plugin files rather than content alone. **What it can do** * Read and write files inside your themes and plugins folders * Tell your agent how the site is built: WordPress and PHP versions, active theme, installed plugins, and which company hosts the site * Clear caches * Keep a log of everything it did, readable under Tools SiteSelf **What it will not do, by design** * It never runs code that is sent to it. There is no remote code execution. * It never reads credentials belonging to other services. It reads a short, fixed list of settings that describe how your site is built, and refuses anything that looks like a key, token or password. * It writes only inside your themes and plugins folders. Both folders are resolved before anything is written, so `../` cannot climb out of them, and a file that turns out to be a shortcut to somewhere else (a symlink) is refused rather than followed. * It cannot edit files that WordPress itself would not let you edit. Whether a request is allowed is WordPress’s decision, using the same permissions as its built-in editors — so `DISALLOW_FILE_MODS`, `DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT`, a managed host that switches file changes off, and multisite’s rule that only a network administrator may touch shared plugin files all apply here too. * Before replacing a file it keeps a copy of the previous version, and it refuses to save PHP that has a syntax error. **How access works** The plugin adds no new way into your site. Every request must come from a signed- in WordPress user with the right permissions, using WordPress’s own application passwords — which you create, and can revoke at any time under Users Profile Application Passwords. Deactivating this plugin stops file access immediately. ### External services This plugin connects your site to **SiteSelf**, a service run by Refact at https:// siteself.com. The plugin is the site-side half of that service and is not useful without it. The plugin makes no outbound requests of its own. It sends nothing anywhere, on any schedule. What it does is answer requests that SiteSelf makes to your site, and it answers them only when they carry a signed-in WordPress user with administrator permissions — an application password that you created and can revoke. **What leaves your site when SiteSelf asks.** A status request returns a description of how this site is built: * your site’s name, home address, admin address and language * your WordPress and PHP version numbers * every plugin installed, with its version and whether it is active * your active theme, its version, and whether it is a child theme * which company hosts the site, any must-use plugins that identify them, and whether the host reports this as a staging copy * the server software string and the file path WordPress is installed at * how many published posts and pages you have * whether this site permits file changes * a public key this plugin creates for the site, so that moving to a new domain does not look like a different site. The matching private key never leaves your server — not to SiteSelf, not in any request. Other requests return the contents of a file inside your themes or plugins folders, a folder listing, or one of a short fixed list of WordPress settings that describe how the site is built. Nothing else is readable, and anything whose name looks like a key, token, secret or password is refused. Your site’s content is not sent by this plugin. No visitor data, analytics or personal data of your users is collected, sent or stored by it. Service terms: https://siteself.com/terms Privacy policy: https://siteself.com/ privacy ## انسٽاليشن This plugin does nothing on its own. It is the site-side half of a service, so there is a short setup after you activate it. 1. Install and activate the plugin. 2. Create an application password: **Users Profile Application Passwords**. Give it a name you will recognise, such as “SiteSelf”, and copy the password WordPress shows you. It is shown once. 3. Sign in at https://siteself.com and add this site, pasting in the site address, your WordPress username and that application password. There are no settings to configure. **Tools SiteSelf** shows what your agent has done, the previous versions of any file it replaced, and a button that disconnects the site. To stop it at any time: revoke the application password under your profile, or deactivate the plugin. Either takes effect immediately. ## FAQ ### Can I see what the agent has done? Yes. Tools SiteSelf lists every action with a timestamp. ### How do I stop it? Deactivate the plugin, or revoke the application password under your user profile. Either one takes effect immediately. ### Does it work without the SiteSelf service? No. This plugin is the site-side half of a service at https://siteself.com. ### Can it edit files if my host has locked them down? No, and that is deliberate. It asks WordPress the same question WordPress asks before showing you its own file editors. If your host or your `wp-config.php` has switched file changes off, this plugin is refused too, and your agent will tell you which setting stopped it. ## جائزا ھن پلگ ان لاءِ ڪي به رايا ناھن. ## تعاون ڪندڙ & ڊولپرز “SiteSelf Connector” اوپن سورس سافٽ ويئر آهي. ھيٺين ماڻھن ھن پلگ ان ۾ حصو ورتو آھي. تعاون ڪندڙ * [ Refact ](https://profiles.wordpress.org/refact/) [ترجمو ڪريو “SiteSelf Connector” توهان جي ٻولي ۾.](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/siteself-connector) ### ڊولپمينٽ ۾ دلچسپي؟ [ڪوڊ براؤز ڪريو](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/siteself-connector/)، چيڪ ڪريو [SVN مخزن](https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/siteself-connector/)، يا رڪنيت حاصل ڪريو [ڊولپمينٽ لاگ](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/log/siteself-connector/) پاران [RSS](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/log/siteself-connector/?limit=100&mode=stop_on_copy&format=rss). ## لاگ تبدیل ڪريو #### 0.6.0 * Closed a hole in the file rails. A file that was a shortcut to somewhere else ( a symlink) could be written through, which meant a write inside your themes folder could change a file outside it. Those are now refused. If you have deliberately symlinked a theme or plugin file, your agent will now say it cannot write to it rather than quietly changing the file at the other end. * File editing now uses exactly the permissions WordPress uses for its own editors.** On a multisite network this is a real change**: only a network administrator can edit theme and plugin files now, because those folders are shared by every site on the network. A single-site administrator is unaffected. Sites whose host switches file changes off through a filter rather than a constant are now correctly refused as well. * Tools SiteSelf and your SiteSelf dashboard now report whether writes are actually permitted, rather than only whether the two `wp-config.php` constants are set. The two can disagree, and it was the second one that was being shown. #### 0.5.0 * Updates now come from WordPress.org, like every other plugin on your site. Earlier versions fetched their own updates from siteself.com because this plugin was not in the directory yet. Nothing changes on your Plugins screen — the update button is in the same place and works the same way. * This is the last update that arrives from siteself.com. After it, your site checks WordPress.org. #### 0.4.0 * Your site can now tell SiteSelf who it is, so moving to a new domain no longer looks like a different site. The plugin creates a key the first time SiteSelf asks about your site, and keeps it here. The private half never leaves your server— not to SiteSelf, not in any request. * Nothing else changes, and there is nothing to set up. If you move your site, restore a backup, or your host makes a staging copy, SiteSelf can tell which one is which instead of guessing from the address. * Removing the plugin leaves the key in place, so reinstalling brings your site back as the same site. Disconnect, under Tools SiteSelf, is what removes it. #### 0.3.0 * Updates now arrive on your own Plugins screen. Earlier versions had no way to tell WordPress where newer copies live, so updating meant deleting the plugin and uploading a zip by hand. It is now an ordinary one-click update, and can be turned on for automatic updates like any other plugin. #### 0.2.0 * Renamed from “Refact Agent Connector” to “SiteSelf Connector”, including the plugin folder and the REST namespace. WordPress treats a renamed plugin as a different one, so this version had to be installed by hand alongside removing the old one — the change in 0.3.0 exists so that never happens again. #### 0.1.0 * First release: status, file read/write with backups, allowlisted settings reads, cache flush, and the activity log. ## ميٽا * Version **0.6.0** * Last updated **12 ڪلاڪَ اڳ** * Active installations **10 کان گھٽ** * WordPress version ** 5.6 يا وڌيڪ ** * Tested up to **7.1** * PHP version ** 7.4 يا وڌيڪ ** * Language * [English (US)](https://wordpress.org/plugins/siteself-connector/) * Tags * [agency](https://snd.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/agency/)[AI](https://snd.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/ai/) [automation](https://snd.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/automation/)[maintenance](https://snd.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/maintenance/) * [ترقي يافته ڏيک](https://snd.wordpress.org/plugins/siteself-connector/advanced/) ## درجه بندي No reviews have been submitted yet.
