Blockchain-Enabled Content Management Plugin for WordPress: A Secure, Passwordless, and Tamper-Evident CMS

The research paper describes making of WordPress plugin to bring blockchain-style security into a standard, self-hosted CMS environment without relying on an actual blockchain network. The plugin uses MetaMask for password-less login and applies cryptographic hashing (SHA-256 and Keccak-256) to each post so any unauthorized modification can be detected. It runs on a Windows 11/XAMPP setup and was developed collaboratively through GitHub. In testing, the system delivered fast hash generation (around 50ms per post), a dashboard that loads in roughly one second, and reliable authentication for multiple users through wallet-based credentials. The result is a security add-on that provides tamper-evidence and auditability while remaining easy for small teams and non-technical users to deploy.
