    Honest recommendation > get rid of the VPS server and move your websites to Shared hosting. Why? VPS servers are sold to average folks without any warning that you are getting a bare bones server with minimal security and securing your VPS is entirely on you. Telling people that would obviously cause VPS server sales to plummet. Shared hosting…[Read more]

    To the rescue again, thank you!! Can you recommend a good place to learn how to harden server ports? or points of entry?. I have two shared servers and one VPS that got hacked in the last two weeks, all sites are updated and have bulletproof installed. I noticed the hacks becasue of the quarantine notifications and also from malcare notifications.…[Read more]

    Looks like a typical RFI problem.

    1. Copy the modified BPS Query String Exploits below to this BPS Root Custom Code text box: 12. CUSTOM CODE BPSQSE BPS QUERY STRING EXPLOITS. Note: Overwrite any htaccess code that is already in this text box.
    2. Click the Save Root Custom Code button.

    Adding to htaccess:

    RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} __wpdmlo= [NC]
    RewriteRule .* – [L]

    Didn’t solve the problem.

    On our website we have download pdf button with email lock option set.
    So, when user click on download button, popup form is open and user should left his name and email

    Try deactivating all of your other plugins and see if the php error is still occurring or not. The php error is coming from how php files are being processed and does not have anything to do with your WordPress database. So uninstalling BPS Pro would not change anything.  You can try manually reinstalling BPS Pro using the BPS Pro Upload Zip…[Read more]

    Confirming no OPcache was running initially. However, we’ve enabled this with the recommended parameters for testing – no luck. Error still there. We don’t use Cloudflare with WP-Rocket.

    Nothing special in the wp-config.php either. This is the code below BPSPro ini_set settings:
    /** Absolute path to the WordPress directory. */

    A “cannot redeclare” php error basically means something is being loaded twice/headers already loaded. If you have Cloudflare installed or your web host uses Cloudflare and you are using WP Rocket then see this WP Rocket help topic > https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/18-using-wp-rocket-with-cloudflare. Another thing to check would be your…[Read more]

    Checking with the server hosting if there is some server sided caching installed, can’t see opCache straight up.

    Not sure why that modified Query String Exploit code does not work. It should. Try the modified Query String Exploit code below.

    1. Copy the modified BPS Query String Exploits code below to this BPS Root Custom Code text box: 12. CUSTOM CODE BPSQSE BPS QUERY STRING EXPLOITS

    Thank you for looking at that and fixing it, a big relief!  I have entered the Cloudflare IPs according to your link and turned the Plugin Firewall back on.  So far all good.  I will monitor things for awhile before re-enabling Cloudflare.

    Thanks again for your prompt reply, helpful practical advice as always.

    The problem is fixed. You had invalid htaccess code in Root Custom Code text box 14 and wp-admin Custom Code text box 1. You don’t need to add/whitelist Cloudflare IP addresses in the root and wp-admin htaccess files. The only case where you would need to whitelist Cloudflare IP’s would be using the link I posted in my first reply to add the IP…[Read more]
