VT Property Plugin

http://codecanyon.net/item/wordpress-property-real-estate-plugin-/full_screen_preview/11646102?ref=Ahkonsu

The Lowdown:

This is a plugin that integrates into VisualComposer to help you build a real estate listing site. It gives you advanced property types to create more precise listings. Works great for bot a rental and a sales site listings. You can have multiple agents. Google maps integration. All in all it looks to be a pretty good addition if you are working on a real estate website of any type.

WP Limit Login Attempts

Sent in by Arshid KV

  • Version: 2.4.6
  • Author: Arshid
  • Last Updated: 1 week ago
  • Requires WordPress Version: 2.8 or higher
  • Compatible up to: 4.5.2
  • Active Installs: 20,000+
  • WordPress.org Plugin Page »
  • Plugin Homepage »

The Lowdown:

While I am not one to use CAPTCHA's some people still use and like them, this is a plugin that does that when someone is logging in, after the CAPTCHA it allow 5 attempts to login then locks access for 10 min. This is a pretty simple way to help slowdown all the attempts on your site from bot and malicious login in attempts. It does seem to have an issue creating its captcha php file from time to time and you may have to manually create it. It does look to be an ok way that is fast and dirty to block unauthorized access to your site.

Country IP Specific Redirections

  • Version: 0.1
  • Author: Mudassar Ali
  • Last Updated: 4 days ago
  • Requires WordPress Version: 3.0.0 or higher
  • Compatible up to: 4.5.2
  • WordPress.org Plugin Page »
  • Plugin Homepage »

The Lowdown:

This plugin detects what country your visitors are coming from so you can either redirect them to a specific page or block them completely. You can set up per country to block on a category or post basis. the redirect to a specific url . You can redirect specific pages alone. You can do a mass redirect for all countries without rules not sure of benefit here. This can come in handy for some targeted marketing to specific countries or for fun if you want to send your most irritating countries off to say Disneyland

Media Cleaner

Clean your Media Library from the media which aren't used in any of your posts, gallery and so on. First, before using this plugin, make sure you have a proper backup of all your files and database. This is the most important step on the usage of this plugin, you can't trust any file deletion tools. The Pro version of this plugin brings also scanning to the /uploads folder and will detect which files aren't registered in the Media Library and not used in your content. Retina images are also detected and supported, shortcodes, HTML in sidebars and of course your posts, pages and all post types.
