• HI
    A customer of mine had a blog built using wordpress, all working fine, then this week it started having a 500 error, they asked me to have a look.

    I set debug to true in the config file and found the error, basicaly a php block hadn’t been closed, I closed that block of php and the blog in up and running again, but heres the thing, i’m not familar with wordpress and how it’s coded, but I have notice a lot of strange php code at the top of every file and this was the block that wasn’t closed on the meta.php file, the code is on every file including the config.php file

    Is this meant to be there”

    heres a sample of some of it

    [ Readacted ]

    Any ideas?
