In reply to: Spammed/hacked???>I upgraded to the newer wordpress versions today
Reading old posts, those users whose WP blogs have been cracked suggest that upgrading WP to the latest doesn’t necessarily stop the evil from cracking them again.
You may want to destroy all administrative usernames and create a new one, giving it a nickname like ‘admin’ and changing admin display name to the nickname.

In reply to: The site is too slow or get “stopped”>I have over a 1-1/2 years of content on my site and have not touched anything since I updated to 2.6
Do you mean you didn’t have trouble until you updated your WP to 2.6? My version is a lot lower and has 1,200 posts with no problem except that ad companies cause a loading delay.

In reply to: Creating a Table>The stylesheet for the theme I’m using shows the width of content to be 63%. My table width is 55%.
Which is bigger, 63% of A or 55% of B? Anyway, good luck to you…
Just meaning that’s what I guessed…
Admin account cracking will be tough to do without knowing a username.
Ahhh…
Is your administrative username viewable anywhere at your website?

In reply to: Domain Name Expired – Unable to renew>because it’s not yet expired?
It has expired.
Talk to the old domain registrar.

In reply to: Creating a TableAs long as you make sure that the table width is smaller than that of ‘content’ div (REF: style.css), all tables should be inserted into your articles with no problem. I insert at least 1 HTML table in every article to display screenshots.

In reply to: Using my own registration?>Insert that into the WordPress user table and everything should work (trying it now.)
Logically speaking, you can’t associate login names with those MD5 passwords on a different login system unless you decrypt them, can you?

In reply to: Spam posts pointing to 1 Particular IP addressI see. 200.63.42.75 is also traced to Panamaserver.com. Google seems to know a lot about 200.63.42.136, though. Another big offender is 208.70.78.16.

In reply to: wordpress exploit inserts <script> code?It’s no offense, but such exploitation takes place at hundreds of mismanaged WP websites that I have seen here and there. A list of preventive measures is long. So I won’t mention them.
Good luck

In reply to: total count of contributorsYou can draw role information from wp_usermeta. So it is possible to automatically calculate the number of contributors.

In reply to: total count of contributorsIf there were unique numbers assigned to users depending on their roles under ‘user_status,’ you could count the one for contributors. However, it seems that only ‘0’ appears on any role. It is possible that you can manually assign the same unique number to contributors. If you assign 5, for example, you can easily count the number by writing
$sql = "SELECT * FROM wp_users WHERE user_status = 5; $contr_count = mysql_query($sql, MySQL connection); $num_contr = mysql_num_rows($contr_count);You have to connect the database at first, though.
I learned PHP programming about 3 weeks ago to build a spam database. If I can do it, I’m sure you can do it, too. Good luck.
