PBJ SEO 4.0.0 is out — and it has a new name: PBJ SEO & Security. Everything the plugin already did for your on-page SEO is still there, exactly as it was. What’s new is a whole second half: a firewall, a malware scanner, two-factor login, site hardening, and an activity log — the tools you’d normally bolt on with a second plugin, now first-party and in the same dashboard.Nothing turns on by itself. Every security feature ships off. Upgrading changes nothing about how your site behaves until you flip a switch — so you can update today and turn on the pieces...
PBJ SEO Is Now PBJ SEO & Security: Firewall, Malware Scanning, and Two-Factor Login — Built In

PBJ Form Builder 1.5.0: Mark It Spam, Ban the IP, Even Block the Country
PBJ Form Builder already stops most bots before they ever reach your inbox — a server-signed math CAPTCHA, a honeypot, a time-trap, and a per-IP rate limit, all self-contained with zero Google. Version 1.5.0 adds the fifth layer, for the spam that’s sent by actual humans (or the bots clever enough to do arithmetic): a Spam button on every submission.
Click it once and three things happen. The sender’s IP address goes onto a permanent ban list. Every submission that address ever made — not just the one you clicked — is deleted. And from that moment on, anything it submits is...
PBJ Analytics 1.7.0: See the Actual Search Queries
PBJ Analytics 1.7.0 is out, and it answers the question every site owner asks first: what did people actually search to find me?
The actual search queries — retrieved, not guessed
Since around 2013, every major search engine strips the keywords out of the referrer it sends your site. Your analytics — any analytics — only ever learns that a visitor came from Google, never the words they typed. The engines do record which queries led to your site, and each one reports them to verified site owners through its own webmaster API. PBJ Analytics 1.7.0 connects to those APIs and pulls the list for...
PBJ Analytics 1.6.2: Charts Come to the Public Dashboard
PBJ Analytics 1.6.2 is out, together with the 1.6.1 fix release. The headline: the public read-only dashboard — the single tokenized URL you can hand to a client or stakeholder — now shows real graphs, not just numbers and tables.
Charts on the shared link
The public dashboard now renders the same visuals as the admin dashboard: a day-by-day trend line of pageviews and visitors over the selected range, and a channels breakdown chart with whole-number percentages that always add up to 100. Like everything in PBJ Analytics, the charts are drawn by the locally-bundled copy of Chart.js — no...
PBJ Analytics 1.6.0: Scheduled Reports Your Way, and a Custom Report Builder
PBJ Analytics 1.6.0 is out. This release is all about getting your numbers to come to you — on your schedule, in your inbox, cut exactly the way you want — and about opening up the full data behind every dashboard card.
Report processing: the weekly digest, grown up
Settings now has a Report processing section. The standard is the one you know — the previous 7 full days, weekly — but everything is adjustable: the window runs from 1 to 365 days, and the schedule can be daily, weekly on the day you pick, or monthly on the date you pick. Reports always end at...

New: PBJ De-Theme — escape any page builder. Plus Studio Sync 3.3.0 goes relative.
Two releases today.
PBJ De-Theme 1.0.0
Your page builder was supposed to make WordPress easier. Instead, your content is hostage: turn the builder off and your pages render as bracket soup — or nothing at all. Subscriptions renew because leaving feels impossible.
PBJ De-Theme makes leaving boring and safe. It audits every page and shows exactly where the content lives (it recognizes 11 builders), converts builder layouts into standard WordPress blocks, extracts builder headers and footers into ordinary widgets, and walks you through the theme switch with a preflight checklist. A...
Playing Music Legally in Your Palm Beach Restaurant or Bar: What Every Owner Needs to Know
Most restaurant and bar owners we work with have no idea this is a problem until they get a letter. So let’s get this out of the way: playing your personal Spotify, Apple Music, or YouTube account through speakers in a business is a copyright violation. Doesn’t matter if you pay for the premium tier. Doesn’t matter if it’s background music. Doesn’t matter if you’re a small place.
This isn’t hypothetical. Performing rights organizations actively audit restaurants and bars, and the fines for unlicensed music can run from $750 to $30,000 per song, per...
Cloud Security Cameras vs Local NVR: Which Should Your Palm Beach Business Buy in 2026?
Five years ago, choosing a security camera system meant calling a low-voltage contractor and paying for a 16-channel NVR with coax cabling. Today, you can put a Ring camera up yourself in twenty minutes. So which one should your business actually buy?
The short answer: it depends on how big you are, how much you care about owning your footage, and how many monthly subscriptions you can stomach. The longer answer is below.
What “cloud” and “local NVR” actually mean
Cloud cameras (Ring, Nest, Eufy, Wyze, Arlo, Verkada) record to a server you don’t own. You pay a...
