[http://www.surefireweb.com](http://www.surefireweb.com) * If I simply export the files from the PC software to my desktop, the slider works fine in the HTML version. However when I import them into WordPress the plugin doesn’t work, so there is simply a static picture on the screen. It does, however, allow the default slider #1 to work just fine. * Does anyone have tips on how I might trouble shoot this further ? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Hacked by Hmei7](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hacked-by-hmei7/) * [easterjv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/easterjv/) * (@easterjv) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hacked-by-hmei7/page/2/#post-2577628) * Hey everyone * Thank you for all your informative posts. * I’ve been able to restore my clients site from a host that had their server attacked yesterday. * Only the “header.php” file had been touched (I hope!!), as what seems to be the case for most other people; which suggests that this isn’t malicious intent, but just enough to show off to the world what they can do. * I’ve taken all your good advice and … – changed hosting to a more secure server– updated the admin and all user account passwords under wp_users – looked for other files in all folders that have had Modified Dates the same time as the heder.php mod file date – taken a full backup of the site using Robert Plank’s“ Backup Creator” and kept that for safe future keeping – and in a state of paranoia I updated all WP files, just to be sure – and taking this one step further, changing passwords to all my other blogs and online access that use my email account in case they can work out the UN + PW combo for that hacked site and take my life to WordPress Hell… * And I’m taking steps to install plugins for extra secutiry on my WP site like: – Bullet Proof Security – WordPress Firewall ( [http://www.seoegghead.com/software/downloads/wordpress-firewall.seo](http://www.seoegghead.com/software/downloads/wordpress-firewall.seo)) * Now this has got me thinking … WHY aren’t there some of these basic plugins included in a standard installation of WordPress to ensure that sites aren’t hacked ? * Now we can’t do too much for the hosting accounts that have vulnerabilities, but if we can make the system itself more secure, wouldn’t that save a bunch of time and complaints ? * Thanks for being such a great support community 🙂 * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WOW Slider] [Plugin: WOW Slider] This plugin does not work with Wow Slider 2.1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wow-slider-this-plugin-does-not-work-with-wow-slider-21/) * [easterjv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/easterjv/) * (@easterjv) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wow-slider-this-plugin-does-not-work-with-wow-slider-21/#post-2660414) * When trying to perform an Automatic Update from 1.2 to 1.3 version of WOW Slider, WordPress brings up an error message “You do not have sufficient priviledges” * I had to actually DISABLE and DELETE the plugin, and MANUALLY upload the new plugin, which then works fine. * Can you fix this please ? * I have so many websites to update manually otherwise !
