It is complicated by the fact that my website is in someone else’s hosting account and I no longer have the password to access the dashboard. My friend is a little strange, and he may not be a friend any more. Assuming I get access again to the dashboard, what can I do to restore the site? I used a the best rated plugin for backing up the website, can’t think of the name of the plug in. My friend used only admin / admin for his login. Now he has changed it and lately he hasn’t been very friendly. * Turkish hackers, that’s a hoot, going after an unprotected health website? What a challenge, do you think? I’ve never known a Turk to write perfect English, let alone speak it. Nothing against Turks, but this is something else. . . * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Po.st: The Social Sharing Platform that Captures 100% of your sites Social Activity!] Unwanted keyword hyperlinks](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unwanted-keyword-hyperlinks/) * Thread Starter [rsettle2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rsettle2/) * (@rsettle2) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unwanted-keyword-hyperlinks/#post-3748893) * No, I’ve installed nothing like that. * Maybe it has nothing to do with wordpress specifically now.

When I have time, I’ll try the suggestions made earlier, if it won’t upset the work I am trying to do here. * A pop up window would certainly help in some situations, rather than giving a useless blank page for an error notification. And we’re not talking about fixing every problem here. Just a notification that shouldn’t require removing the page from the screen. How is that involved with hacking? _[Leave your “maybe” provocative statements out until you’re absolutely sure]_ * After my first post, I had a strong feeling that this would be an exercise in beating my head against the wall. Interesting to see the reactions I get. * Forum: [Requests and Feedback](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/requests-and-feedback/) In reply to: [When will you replace "Are You Sure You Want To Do This?"](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/when-will-you-replace-are-you-sure-you-want-to-do-this/) * Thread Starter [rsettle2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rsettle2/) * (@rsettle2) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/when-will-you-replace-are-you-sure-you-want-to-do-this/#post-3658936) * You had a lot to say and entirely missed my simple suggestion. If you just convert your blank page with notification to a pop-up window that doesn’t have to remain on top, you would not be needlessly removing the page on the screen. * Forum: [Requests and Feedback](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/requests-and-feedback/) In reply to: [When will you replace "Are You Sure You Want To Do This?"](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/when-will-you-replace-are-you-sure-you-want-to-do-this/) * Thread Starter [rsettle2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rsettle2/) * (@rsettle2) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/when-will-you-replace-are-you-sure-you-want-to-do-this/#post-3658891) * I thought so. No practical approach here, just leave the trap door open. I haven’t found the problem yet, and I need to get work done, and once again I lost work and time because of it. People will spend more time posting about my problem than it would take to change their problem (ahh, but it’s my problem), to change the error notification to a pop-up window.

I understand the ideal is to find the source of the problem. * Maybe it’s too much to ask for a sensible error notification also? * Forum: [Requests and Feedback](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/requests-and-feedback/) In reply to: [When will you replace "Are You Sure You Want To Do This?"](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/when-will-you-replace-are-you-sure-you-want-to-do-this/) * Thread Starter [rsettle2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rsettle2/) * (@rsettle2) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/when-will-you-replace-are-you-sure-you-want-to-do-this/#post-3658853) * So don’t do anything to help out, by making error notification something less than a trap door? It’s their problem, and therefore of no concern. Yes, I may have a problem that can be fixed. The thoughtless form of error notification is a problem too, so easy to fix. But it’s easier to say it’s not our problem. * Forum: [Requests and Feedback](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/requests-and-feedback/) In reply to: [When will you replace "Are You Sure You Want To Do This?"](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/when-will-you-replace-are-you-sure-you-want-to-do-this/) * Thread Starter [rsettle2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rsettle2/) * (@rsettle2) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/when-will-you-replace-are-you-sure-you-want-to-do-this/#post-3658809) * I use firefox and its up to date. I don’t know of any issues with cookies. I’ll check to see if I have software that is deleting cookies. It doesn’t happen all the time, but when it does and if I didn’t copy the whole edit then I’ve lost it. * If someone has a problem, why not help him out instead of eliminating the page in order to indicate a problem? Leave the page on his screen and let him refresh or go to the dashboard when he is ready. * Forum: [Requests and Feedback](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/requests-and-feedback/) In reply to: [When will you replace "Are You Sure You Want To Do This?"](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/when-will-you-replace-are-you-sure-you-want-to-do-this/) * Thread Starter [rsettle2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rsettle2/) * (@rsettle2) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/when-will-you-replace-are-you-sure-you-want-to-do-this/#post-3658800) * It seems to be inactive time, I’m guessing maybe 10 minutes? Or there could be some other cause. But it would only make sense to have a pop-up window instead of taking the page away with a half hour or more of work in changes made. Sometimes it takes longer trying to remember the changes and re-write. * This “Are you sure you want to do this” seems to have absolutely no function in this case. If the page is no longer current, please don’t take it away so that we lose all the work. Give us a pop-up window that doesn’t have to stay on top, so that we can copy the work before losing the page. Viewing 11 replies - 1 through 11 (of 11 total)
