I do understand it is in Alpha — I actually ended up using a different theme for the time being. * Thanks!

I am a relatively resourceful WordPress developer, and I tried all of the standard fixes, and none of them were it. * Thanks * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Secure WordPress – Change table prefix after installation](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/secure-wordpress-change-table-prefix-after-installation/) * Thread Starter [Zachary Russell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/protechig/) * (@protechig) * [13 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/secure-wordpress-change-table-prefix-after-installation/#post-3085283) * About 90-95% of the websites that I make are on the Genesis framework, from what I hear it is extremely secure (according to a testimonial from Matt himself). I am also dabbling with Thesis, which, from my understanding is the same. * I am actually thinking about dabbling with things such as, _s, toolbox, and HybridCore, what are your opinions of them? * Also, I am considering on going into the premium theme marketplace myself, do you have any recommendations for me? I want my works to be as secure as possible because I know from personal experience that the recourse can be devastating. * Thanks Zach Russell * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Secure WordPress – Change table prefix after installation](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/secure-wordpress-change-table-prefix-after-installation/) * Thread Starter [Zachary Russell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/protechig/) * (@protechig) * [13 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/secure-wordpress-change-table-prefix-after-installation/#post-3085261) * I understand what your saying. What do you recommend for all WordPress installs for security. I have had multiple clients that have came to me being hacked and I really just want to be as secure as possible. * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [Using GIT with local host root directory for theme development](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-git-with-local-host-root-directory-for-theme-development/) * Thread Starter [Zachary Russell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/protechig/) * (@protechig) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-git-with-local-host-root-directory-for-theme-development/#post-2979128) * Okay, that makes sense, though I may have the wrong idea on how to use git for theme development, i’m new to this aspect of programming. For the best practice, to I create the repo it the web server’s root directory, or should I create it in another directory (ie /local-websites/mysite) and copy the site and latest version from there to the root directory? * I’m not sure what the best practice here is for these kinds of things, and wold appreciate any input. * Thanks for the advice so far! * Zach * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [Where Are MySQL Databases Stored on a LAMP Install](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/where-are-mysql-databases-stored-on-a-lamp-install/) * Thread Starter [Zachary Russell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/protechig/) * (@protechig) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/where-are-mysql-databases-stored-on-a-lamp-install/#post-2980090) * That makes sense, BUT, I don’t know where the MySQL Databases are to dump them from. I can’t specify a file that I don’t know where it is. * Thanks Zach * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Made Clone of site, and now the copy is redirecting to old site's sitemap](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/made-clone-of-site-and-now-the-copy-is-redirecting-to-old-sites-sitemap/) * Thread Starter [Zachary Russell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/protechig/) * (@protechig) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/made-clone-of-site-and-now-the-copy-is-redirecting-to-old-sites-sitemap/#post-2946200) * Hello, thank you for your feedback.

This is not a Genesis issue, if it was i’d be asking for support in their forums. I’d appreciate any more help you could give me on this. * Zach * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Add Two Page Google Custom Search To Theme](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-two-page-google-custom-search-to-theme/) * Thread Starter [Zachary Russell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/protechig/) * (@protechig) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-two-page-google-custom-search-to-theme/#post-2914630) * Any Ideas why I cannot Get this working?
