admin-ajax.php will become 404.

somori — Thu, 07 Sep 2023 03:04:18 +0000

Hi,

For example, change the “Site address” as the “root” from “/wp/”,
/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php will become 404.

Is there any solution?

Wordfence Plugin issue – Staying in login page and don’t Entering to admin area

azamal — Wed, 18 May 2022 01:12:13 +0000

Hi Everyone

I’ve got some issues after moving my WordPress website to a new web server,
firstly Wordfence didn’t let me log in to the admin and even block the website,
then I did some changes in PHPMyAdmin Wordfence tables, I removed some records and also did some changes in the root files, such as renaming the plugin directory and editing htaccess and PHP files, but got another internal 500 error,
now I could bring back the homepage after restoring backup files,
Also,
I changed the password several times with the ‘Lost Password’ link, but it just sends me the link which shows the login page again, and no pages to set the new password!
so I edit the password from the database but, when I enter user/pass to the log-in page, it’s nothing pops up and just stays on the login page without any error or messages!
After some try. Now the page after enter user/pass is:

Jetpack has locked your site’s login page.
Your IP address —.—.—.— has been flagged for potential security violations. You can unlock your login by sending yourself a special link via email. Learn More

If you can help me, I appreciate that so much.
Thank you in advance.

Lost my website and can’t login

michelkaljee — Wed, 19 Jan 2022 11:23:43 +0000

I wanted to change the url of my website so I went to settings according to a description I found on Google.
I changed WordPress-adres (URL) & Siteadres (URL)
I confirmed…
And all is gone.
I can’t login
It doesn’t even recognize my username.

Do I have to start all over again building?
What can I do?

Clone Website on a New Installation to Update It

matteomicciche — Mon, 19 Apr 2021 12:39:39 +0000

Hi there!

We need to recreate our site from scratch. When I mean from scratch I mean we want to keep the same content (pages, articles, URLs and tons of media) and move it to a new WordPress installation with a different theme.
A brief background to try to understand what the underlying problem is. The current site (the one to be copied and transferred) is HUGE. It has more than 1500 pages and 3000 articles. It is currently running on an old version of WordPress and an outdated theme. We are deliberately not updating WordPress, theme and PHP so as not to risk crashing and being left without a site (this has already happened in the past with another installation).
What we have done is to create (on the same hosting) a new, updated installation of WordPress (on another directory). This will be the new and definitive one. Then – when all is said and done – we should use the name of the first installation (but this will be another issue to deal with at the end). We decided to operate in this way because we want everything to be done as safely as possible.

Some details:

Objective: SITE 1 -> SITE 2

SITE 1:
Installation: domain.org/directory1
WordPress 5.2
PHP 7.1.33
Theme: Awaken

SITE 2:
Installation: domain.org/directory2
WordPress 5.7.1
PHP 7.1.33
Theme: Divi Builder

At the moment, we have already installed the new theme in directory2 and created the home page that will host all the pages and articles from the old site. We are not interested in keeping the plugins. Our aim is for the new installation to be as “clean” as possible, without the risk of dragging around old problems.
What do you think is the correct way to proceed? Again, the most important thing is that the links are not changed (so that the URLs will still work once the change has been made; I mean: domain.org/directory1/perma/link/article-written-in-the past = domain.org/directory2/perma/link/article-written-in-the past

Could the export/import tool do this job? How should I proceed to make sure that I don’t affect the performance of the new site? Is it possible to carry out a test with a few pages to see if this can be done?

Thank you all!

Moving WP from a subfolder to root but…

silvercarpet — Fri, 12 Mar 2021 10:03:10 +0000

Hi, I need some help in moving my WordPress installation from a subfolder into the root directory but I don’t think it’s as simple as in some cases. This is going to be quite long but I need to go into detail to explain what’s happening and where I am now.

I first wrote my site in 2004 using HTML via Frontpage (remember that?). It worked well but in 2016 it was starting to get very outdated so I switch to using WordPress.

I read that it was better to put WordPress into a subfolder because that gave you added security. Apparently, hackers assume it’ll be in the root and if it’s not it’s harder to find – true or not I don’t know but that’s why I installed WordPress in a subfolder. It also allowed me to build the new version of the site while my old one was still active.

I switched to using my WordPress site by changing the URL settings in WordPress and everything was fine. I started having trouble with the hosts though as their servers kept going down so I switched hosting companies in 2018. The new hosts handled the migration for me and all was fine until recently.

When WordPress 5.7 came out it crashed my whole site. I got a message saying “Theme can’t be found” or something similar so I contacted my hosting company. They said that I had 2 installations of WordPress and that it was a very odd setup, the like of which they hadn’t seen before.

I had one WP installation in my root and one in a subfolder. They said there was a conflict because some of my resources were being saved in one WP and some in another and that they were somehow working in tandem with each other. I asked them through live-chat whether it would be safe to delete the WP in the root seeing as I didn’t know what that was and it had always lived in this subfolder. They said yes go ahead because I can always restore a backup anyway.

I went ahead and deleted the WP in the root folder and it made the whole site crash, so much so that even a restore didn’t fix it. After several hours of working on it a senior technician said that they had got the site working but the setup was very odd and I need a coder to sort it out because it’s beyond the scope of what they can do.

I noticed that my site was fine now running on WP 5.7 but all my images had gone. They said they couldn’t help and it was too complicated to fix but I did fix it by turning off Lazy Loading which bought all the images back.

So…I now have a site that works but it’s very messy. I have WP installed in a subfolder but there’s a copy of all the files from that subfolder also in the root.

All I want to do is have the whole site running from the root instead of this subfolder to clean it all up so…

1) How can I tell if the WP files in the root are doing anything? I have thought of moving or deleting them but I don’t want to do anything that might not be fixed with a restore.
2) Would migrating the site from the subfolder to the root work using a program like Updraft Migrate? I know it normally would but with all this mess would it overwrite/remove unnecessary files from the root?
3) Does any of this actually matter? The site runs fine from a subfolder so is it best to just leave it as it is or will I run into problems later?

Thanks for any help anybody can give. I’m not a pro coder and think I’ve done well to teach myself enough to get this far!

Moving WordPress and search and replace

Alessandra Del Puglia — Tue, 02 Feb 2021 08:09:34 +0000

hi
i just moved wp from host A to host B, with a different domain and server, and everything looks fine.
i also performed a find and replace action for url with the plugin you suggest in your “moving wp” guide https://it.www.ads-software.com/support/article/moving-wordpress/ (better search and replace plugin).
Why do you indicate to only perform a search and replace on the wp_posts table? I did so and found 1300 items to be replaced.
Than, just to be on the safe side and because i’m curious, I performed a second search through all the tables and found 45 more items to be replaces (not in wp_posts).
Is that OK if I replace these last too?
Thanks

Old version of the website still visible

El Pablo — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 08:40:49 +0000

I recently did some layout and content changes on my website locally with the ‘Local by Flywheel’ app. Once the work was finished, I moved the new version of the site to the live server with the ‘All in one WP migration’ plugin. I did this a hundred times before. Nonetheless, my old version of the website is still visible, only when you are logged in you see the new version of the website.

I turned off the cache plugin, I removed the cache of my browser, I tried on other browsers, on my mobile, … All showing the same old version of the site.

Does anyone has an idea how this is possible or what can be the cause of this?

Moving a subdivision of WordPress

ljlouis — Wed, 22 Jan 2020 15:35:25 +0000

I currently have two WordPress installations on my website, one for the main site and one at blog level. I want to move all my blog articles to the main site so that I only use one going forward, but ideally I don’t want to loose the articles. What’s the best way of moving it (I’m not very technical so layman’s terms would be great).
My concerns I have are:
Broken URLS – ideally I want to change these anyway to the same permalink set up as the main site
Having to keep two WordPresses and plugins up to date to prevent security risks
Can anyone offer advise or point me in the right direction? Do I still need to do this on the blog installation once I’ve moved all articles?

Moving wordpress from subdomain to root directory

drawnbyrhiannon — Mon, 16 Sep 2019 14:21:49 +0000

I originally installed wordpress just to use the blog feature so installed it in the subdomain of /Blog. I’ve now decided to build the whole website with it so want to move the files to the root directory. I changed the urls and moved the files to the root directory but it all went horribly wrong and my website was lost for about 9 hours and I couldn’t access the wordpress admin until I deleted then reinstalled all the files back in to the /Blog folder. I’m hoping that someone can help and talk me through it really slowly as I can’t work out where I went wrong.

Also my website is now automatically directing to www.drawnbyrhiannon.co.uk/Blog which is handy in a way as people are being directed when they type in www.drawnbyrhiannon.co.uk but I just don’t want the /Blog in every address of the website!

Thank you very much in advance to anyone who can take a minute and be patient with me to explain this.

Homepage pointing to the old site after moving wordpress

bunnylake — Fri, 16 Aug 2019 10:38:19 +0000

Hi,

I had wordpress installed in the folder ‘blog’ of my domain chemindesource.com. It was initially my blog but I decided to create a wordpress website to replace my main site with it.
I chose a theme called Integral lite as it’s the free version of Integral. I configured a homepage for the theme and moved the website to the root folder chemindesource.com. All was working fine but then I had a problem and had to reinstall wordpress and restore the database from backup.

The backup was made from the wordpress in the folder ‘blog’ and even though I changed replaced all https://chemindesource.com/blog URLs by https://chemindesource.com in the database, my site was still looking in the ‘blog’ folder for my theme’s files! And because they weren’t there, there was an error message…

I copied the theme files in that folder to see of it can solve the problem and now instead of the error message it displays the blog posts meaning https://chemindesource.com/blog has become the homepage of my site. The menu is displayed and people can navigate through the site but it’s impossible to display the homepage. It systematically points to the blog!

How can I fix that? It’s really urgent because I had designed a very specific homepage with call to action etc. and none of it is displayed anymore.

Thanks for your help
Sarah
