In reply to: [W3 Total Cache] Thumbnail links all broken by latest plugin updatehow can I replace my timthumb resizer in an outdated unsupported theme (Shotzz, WpTitans). I would gladly remove it and replace with Aqua Resizer or other as I suspect it is still vulnerable. But it is in my old theme that has no updating possibilities. I am not too savy, but I can go into cpanel, myphp etc, I have even inserted snippets of code in the past but that is my limit.
Anyone?
Ps. I tried to change my theme to twentysixteen but there must be a compatibility issue or something. Looks like I would need to rebuild the site from scratch to get rid of Shotzz.
My cpanel is hacked too. They add a new user registraton as an administer, so I had to go into cpanel and MYPHP to change the database file “users”.
My question is…are they getting in through hostgator’s cpanel? Through a vulnerability or is someone with hostgator doing some hacking on the side? My suspicion has increased as the last 2 hacks have come after live chats with hostgator techs. I am not accusing anyone. Just saying the facts. After these chats and the hack, I get 2 emails offering website hack repair service. When I ask for a phone number I get no response.
Is there a way to determine how they get into the cpanel? Can they get in through WordPress somehow? Through the dashboard/admin area? Seems to me it has to be through hostgator/cpanel????
