    My replies in the forums keep getting held for moderation, anyone have any idea why that would be happening?

    Yes, I know exactly why your posts are being moderated. So do you: my reply to you went to your inbox.

    Please take a deep breath: you are not in trouble, not at all. 😉

    What you did post had enough information to compromise a 3rd party’s site. That’s not good and it was caught in the filter.

    For various reasons I do not want to have a public conversation about this. But please send to the plugins team all of the security details for the post you tried to post. As you know, their email is plugins@wordpress.org.

    Thanks for your understanding. I’ll remove the moderation flag in a little while, just please be patient.

    And now I’ve archived your latest reply as well and I am closing this topic.

    Here’s what you did.

    1. You posted information that would let anyone reading get into the other compromised sites. That’s not a guess on my part, that’s a fact. I know that was not your intent.
    2. You solicited a user to contact you directly. That’s bad. I’m not talking about the author, remember that any moderator can see your archived replies and it’s there. Don’t do that, that is not allowed.

    If you wish to share the information with plugins or not, that is up to you. I will be sending them an email shortly about this. This is not how possible plugin vulnerabilities are handled here.

    Please have a nice evening.
