In reply to: Is it secure to leave a database dump in the site folder?Is the git repo a dotted folder, as in
.git? If so, that’s a folder invisble to browsers and search engines. Still not the greatest idea, but better than a “visible” folder.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: How To Increase Space Between Header Menus By CssSorry, but you’re using a premium/paid theme. It’s best to go to the support site where you bought the theme – http://www.studiopress.com/forums/ – for help with customizations and issues. You paid for support when you bought the theme, so you should contact the people who sold you the theme.

In reply to: Hack attempts – vulnerability/bug report?@modifiedcontent said
The damage seems limited. They are still trying to get in via login, although some files were modified/added.
I doubt the damage is limited; carefully follow https://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_My_site_was_hacked or you will get hacked again.

In reply to: Hack attempts – vulnerability/bug report?@jeeni said
…there’s an xmlrpc.php vulnerability
xmlrpc is not a vulnerability; it is core WordPress functionality for ping-backs, APIs, etc.
True, it can and has been abused by hackers to probe WordPress sites, and for attacks that flood a server with requests and slow it down (DDoS). But xmlrpc is not a vulnerability in the sense that it is exploitable to gain privileges on a site or server.
If one doesn’t need xmlrpc, it is easy to disable; many security plugins give this option, and there are many stand-alone plugins: https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=xmlrpc
