Hi @janeakshar,
Please have a look at this article which addresses the “Plugin appears to be abandoned” scan message.
Yes I understand that BUT WHAT DO I REPLACE THIS PLUGIN WITH. I know very very little about PHP
The first think I would do is to determine is the plugin is really necessary. Very frequently, old needs go away or new versions make old plugins redundant.
As I understand it, the principal interest of the plugin is to be able to display text within a page or a post that is generated dynamically, at the moment the user requests the page. Do you really need that? If so, it serves to do what, exactly? You need to understand that to determine what other plugin might replace it.
Your alternative to this is to find a PHP developer who could review the source code of the plugin and determine what changes, if any, might be advisable. If you have someone start changing the code itself, then you will be paying to maintain the plugin, which might not be in your interest.
I suspect it is needed on this page http://www.flatsinluxor.co.uk/Availability.php This has an explanation and then displays the availability of the various apartments.
The other page that links to the database is the booking form which does have some validation rules http://www.flatsinluxor.co.uk/php/booking.php
I don’t have enough knowledge to tackle this with confidence
Since you appear to be running a business, don’t you want to pay for a little expert help to sort out the issues you have and get some peace of mind? Maybe someone on this forum can help you (I cannot).
By the way, I note on the page you mentioned that the web site displays php errors. Your visitors are seeing warning messages that they should never see:
Deprecated: Function split() is deprecated in /home/egyptol1/public_html/flatsinluxor.co.uk/php/bookingFuncs.php on line 17
Deprecated: mysql_connect(): The mysql extension is deprecated and will be removed in the future: use mysqli or PDO instead in /home/egyptol1/public_html/flatsinluxor.co.uk/php/clientdbfuncs.php on line 45
I am running a tourism business in Egypt, sadly we dont even make enough money to cover our costs. This is why I have to do everything myself.
