You can do that, but when you update or change your theme, it will be removed (along with any other modifications done to the `functions.php` file). ### Will this plugin persist even if I change or update my theme? Yes. This plugin works independently of your theme and will continue to function regardless of theme changes. ### What happens if I deactivate or uninstall this plugin? If you deactivate or uninstall this plugin, the version information will no longer be removed. ### What security headers does this plugin add? The plugin adds the following headers: – **Content-Security-Policy**: Helps prevent XSS attacks by specifying allowed sources for content. – **X-Content-Type-Options**: Prevents browsers from interpreting files as a different MIME type. – **X-UA-Compatible**: Forces Internet Explorer to use the latest rendering engine. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ee8b209b75b5c25f7ce70bde2f99e310ff722e465c6dbc3b7b19ecb99efa1236? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Good job](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/good-job-704/)󠁿 [aso824](https://profiles.wordpress.org/aso824/) 5 сар 21, 2017 This plugin is ultra simple and does his job.
