In reply to: Staging@macmanx The trouble is he has it live with testing on that site and it’s not fully developed. In other words he’s causing damage to the site before it’s launched, even though I pointed out this risk when I asked him several times to remove it. It’s hosted by WordPress in that staging environment too. WordPress should close it down. Let’s say I’m ignorant about how these works and hired a developer to build a site for me with a contract and all. Should WordPress staff punish me and not help when they can close this site down and get it off google search?

In reply to: Staging@macmanx Thanks for the tip. I did remove access from cPanel, but someone who knows them (or doesn’t) managed to register and I received an email saying that it’s from that staged site. I can’t find that new user in my dashboard.
If WordPress tracks what’s happening on or with our sites, can’t they track this staged version and block it or something?
Just a thought. I did speak with the developer several times about this staging issues, but if he omitted the truth, then he has no intention of doing anything about it, and in this case WordPress should try to help. It’s terrifying to think of how many similar cases can be out there.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Staging@macmanx unfortunately I am not a developer. If you hire one (I know his mother actually), you need to trust this person and provide access so that they can do their work. There are many people like myself who are clueless about that hosting stuff, that’s why we need the hosting companies to make sure that before a site is staged on another domain or files are downloaded, the owners signature and some proof of identity is provided in a way that verifies that it’s actually the site owner who is requesting this download, or action.

In reply to: StagingAbout that issue I posted regarding staging on different domains, my hosting account on WordPress is through bluehost. I contacted them about this issue and they asked me to take it up with WordPress.
