100% perfect answer. Glad to know that it is legal too on paperYou can use nulled theme/plugins on live sites but this is my advice:
1. If you have any doubts, don't do it because it means that you are probably going over your head.
2. Always security scan the themes/plugins before using. (Babiato files are safe but still, if you need peace of mind scan them yourself). You can scan your files here: https://www.virustotal.com/ & here: https://virusscan.jotti.org/
3. ALWAYS update nulled theme/plugins on a staging site FIRST, if they don't break your site and all the functionality is there THEN is safe to update your live site.
4. Install a security plugin (I use Wordfence) and scan your site for malicious code regularly. Since some themes/plugins take some time for the newest version to be nulled your site will be vulnerable to hacks and exploits if the outdated plugin/theme has a severe security vulnerability. Also, activate and require Two Factor Authentication (2FA) for Administrative users and regularly check for user roles. I've seen how some plugins/themes create a user during installation that will then be used to try to get control of your website.
5. Block your site from sites like "What WordPress Theme Is That?" (https://whatwpthemeisthat.com/) I use the free WP Hide & Security Enhancer plugin to do that: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-hide-security-enhancer/ This way you can hide that you are even using WordPress from malicious actors who will check if you are using outdated themes and/or plugins they can exploit.
6. DON'T BE GREEDY!!!! If you are charging for building the website, include the price of the theme/plugins within the price of the project and use official releases. Use nulled scripts only until you can afford buying from the official source. Doing this not only give you peace of mind but also helps developers keep making/updating stuff that is useful to us and make things easier for us.
It is completely legal to use nulled, redistributed and unofficial versions of WordPress themes and plugins for any reason or use case under WordPress' GNU Public License BUT legal doesn't mean wise. Use your own discretion and common sense when using nulled scripts while also being aware of the risks associated with using nulled scripts on your sites or your projects.
I hope this helps.
Many thanks for good information.100% perfect answer. Glad to know that it is legal too on paper
Is there SEO of the website affected if we use WP Hide & Security Enhancer plugin to hide the WordPress?Many thanks for good information.
Nope. WP Hide & Security Enhancer plugin only hides WordPress, themes and plugins from detection by blocking outside access to files and folders that can be used to identify them. It just blocks access to those files from outside your server but it doesn't interfere with the site's functionality at all.Is there SEO of the website affected if we use WP Hide & Security Enhancer plugin to hide the WordPress?
Using nulled themes on a live website (production site) is not recommended and can pose significant risks. Nulled themes are illegally obtained and modified versions of premium themes, often distributed with malicious code or vulnerabilities.Hi everybody,
Is this safe to use Nulled theme as a live website (Production) site?
