In reply to: WordPress won't update from 3.4.1 to 3.8.2 on one of my sitesWould you believe it actually updated an hour later when I tried it. Changed nothing – and it suddenly worked and very quickly.
Why might that be?
Ok, thanks for that – I will check out the Login Security Solution.
Thank you for your help this week!
p.s. I have the better WP security plugin working for other things though which seem to be quite good, just not working on the login URL hide function.
So I assume I can still leave it enabled and use another plugin for hiding the login URL, although I realise that it means more plugins and more issues potentialy.
Ah, then that plugin won’t work for me at all as I have to have WP in a folder since I have other folders on the site for non-wordpress development etc.
I’m using WP Stealth Login for obscuring the login URL which seems to working quite well.
No, it’s not a multisite environment, single WP site on the domain with the installation in a folder called /site/

In reply to: [Admired] Menu WidthYes, that code:
#nav-menu2, #nav-menu2 .menu-header, div.menu { width: 91.61%; max-width: 1050px; margin-left: 10px; }
is actually in line 58 of your actual web-pages, probably editable via the header.php file as opposed to being in a .css file.
If you find that code in the header.php file, best to remove it and place in the .css file to keep things clean.
If you can’t find that code then it’s probably being generated from another of the theme files.
Thanks Handoko. I have definitely got the correct URL – I can’t give you it here as it’s a live website for a client but it goes something like this:
http://www.domain.com/site/xxxxxx
/site/ is the folder the site is located in on the server
xxxxxx is the six digit code I added
I take it there’s not .php or anything to add at the end?

In reply to: Login to Control Panel suddenly not workingOk, thanks for the heads up on the hosting companies blocking access en-masse. I didn’t know they were doing this.
Thanks for the links to the WordPress Brute Force Attacks page. The problem with all the guides including the WP one on Brute Force Attacks is that they all offer up different solutions – there doesn’t seem to be a definitive way to maximise security.
WP is I’m afraid quickly becoming a liability for me as a web developer.
Ok, thanks for that. I will give that a try.
But this code is in the original theme that is downloaded from the Skeleton WP theme website from simplethemes.com
I just installed Theme Authenticity Tracker plugin and it flagged this up:
[Base64 code removed.]
It’s on the WP Skeleton Theme and it is present in their original theme which I just checked.
Is this anything to worry about? I’ve been looking this up and some people are saying it can be used to launch malicious scripts!
Does that mean a malicious script of just spacing in one of the wordpress core files?
