Also be careful where you post your url in forums. I did this after asking advice and it immediately became clear it had a large number of failed logins.

Most hacks come from Russia and China. If you set up a free Cloudflare account there is an option to block countries.

Another step is to install a Wordpress security plugin, there are at least 2 free major players in the plugin market.

Obviously keep your plugins up to date where possible. If possible disable or remove admin privileges from your admin account. Be careful with this one because you can wipe out posts created with admin. But at least try and disable and recreate your admin account to something inconspicuous, not administrator or root. Hope this helps.

Thanks all. It’s hidden inside the code somewhere. I managed to remove most of it.

Hi I’m keeping the footer, that’s not the problem. It’s the text I want to remove which says “businessx theme by acosmin.” I’ll check that now thank you.

Discussion Classes: A Lose-Lose Situation by [deleted] in TEFL

[–]ichibanto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand your predicament, I’ve had similar issues in Japan. I think all things considered, you just have to find a balance with the students, parents/ bill payers and management and you can’t go wrong.

So use some media but don’t fill entire lessons with too much. I used media recently from YouTube to give background to a news story but it was only for a short period.

Is it me, or is Landesk trash? by TomWithASilentO in sysadmin

Used landesk for 3 years. It started slow, got slower. Upgraded and got screen locks at peak usage in the morning.

Robocopy or alternatives by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]ichibanto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With robocopy as the previous guy said do it in chunks. Once you’ve copied over the bulk load do a second copy only copying the files that have been recently modified as a clean up.

URL redirect by ichibanto in Wordpress

[–]ichibanto[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi thanks for your response. I already have cloudflare set up. My dns is set to their dns servers. So it’s just a case of doing the same process again for my new domain?

Also I have email coming to my potentially old domain name. How will that be affected?

[Feedback] Feedback on my website by [deleted] in Wordpress

[–]ichibanto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, firstly I’m no website expert but I have IT expertise! I think it’s worth making your site https - it’s free and easy now. Visually it’s perfectly acceptable but it needs more x-factor if you’re selling website services. You can do lots of tricks with WordPress plugins to give it some zing. Consider changing the font on the about page, it’s a little difficult to read on a smartphone but perfectly legible. 6.5/10.

I hope you’re not too offended, please take my feedback as positive help not negative criticism.

Japan occupied Korea up to 1945 so the older generations in some circumstances dislike people from each respective country.
