<p>Disable the author pages ( /author=? ) in wordpress and redirect the user to another page.</p>


Disable Author Pages

Great.
Your plugin prevents the attacks that search the user logins and run brute force attacks.
That is exactly what I was looking for.

<p>Page Specific Sidebars adds a checkbox to every page allowing you to choose which pages should have a unique sidebar.</p>
<p>Once you enable a page-specific sidebar in the page editor, a widget area will automatically be created for that page and you can customize it as you like.</p>
<p>You can also specify whether the plugin replaces your generic sidebar with the page-specific sidebar, or simply adds your page-specific sidebar on to the existing sidebar.</p>
<h3>Notes</h3>
<p>Plugin has no built-in styling does not contain native styles; it’s meant to use the styles of your existing theme.</p>
<p>This is a minimal plugin, placing function over form.  If you would like to extend it, or would like us to extend it in later versions, feel free to <a href="http://www.ivycat.com/contact/" rel="nofollow ugc">contact us</a>, or post feedback in this plugin’s <a href="" rel="nofollow ugc">support forum</a>.</p>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<p>Simply activate and go.  There are a couple filters for customization:</p>
<pre><code>$location = apply_filters( 'page_sidebar_location', 'side' );

$priority = apply_filters( 'page_sidebar_priority', 'high' );
</code></pre>
<p>These allow you to change the location and priority of the metabox on the “Edit Page” view.</p>
<pre><code>$home_slug = apply_filters( 'page-sidebar-homeslug', $home_slug )
</code></pre>
<p>Use this filter if your home page slug is different from “home” :</p>
<p>NOTE: Any page that has a custom loop pulling in multiple posts will throw this plugin off.  For some reason it always outputs the post ID as the last<br />
post output on the page.  Also, the homepage is most likely the latest blog posts in WordPress so I created a check.  It will get the Home page ID and<br />
use the Home page ID to get its sidebar. (uses is_frontpage() ) to check.</p>
<p>Contact us if you want some more filters or actions added.  http://www.ivycat.com/contact</p>
