Thanks for this Mobilunity.

I have started reading through the links you posted.

I see that a first step is to back up my site. I ave downloaded and installed the backup Guard plug in but when I attempt to run a manual backup I am getting the error message “the pahe at https://www.andrewstucken.com says “false”.

I have coincidentally just noticed a menu at the top of the page in my WP dashboard called “UpdatePlus” which contains two backups form lat year, just after I completed my site (which I have barely alterd since, otyher than updates) and which I am pretty sure are clean.

So there could be a simple solution.

However I do want to use a backup plug in first, even if the current files are infected, in case I somehow lose my work.

Or am I worrying needlessly and should I go ahead and restore from the Update Plus Backups?

Only one person has ever added a genuine comment, and no-one except me has added content, so I guess I am fairly safe, deleting them.

I get a bit nervous that deleting content from, say, a plug in or some such, but I guess that isn’t logical and I shall delete away.

Hi Laliz

Thanks for the advice.

After looking at threads on downloading my WordPress site I have now installed Apache.

I installed the Sucuri plug in yesterday and what is already becoming clear is that there are a hell of a lot of attempted hacks going on.

Thankyou, I will check these out.

It seems that I am paying for a virtually useless “security” product from iPage.

Thanks, will do.

Thanks for your reply.

I heard about Advanced Settings (and it does indeed seem to be a plugin) at this thread.

And my mistake, it is actually Additional Settings that I need:

https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/plugin-contact-form-7-redirect-to-thank-you-page-on-submit?replies=23

I am still unsure where to access Additional Settings. Any advice would be much appreciated.

I have used the Advanced Settings plugin.

Thanks – I used the DB backup plug in but when I tried to do the Backup, a page appears with the message “!oops that page can’t be found”.

I wonder what I have done wrong – entered the wrong file to back up to, name perhaps?

Marked as resolved.

Thankyou. The magic word was “highlighting”.

Schoolboy error on my part. Thankyou for your kind help in resolving this issue, which I have now rectified.

Hi, the links do show in the post/page editor. but not when I clcik “View Page”.

These are the I would like linked in the two sites:

on
https://www.andrewstucken.ocm

Home page: I would like to add the link “Journalisted” for my listing at https://journalisted.com/andrew-stucken

on
https://www.appliedtranslations.co.uk

on the homepage I would like to add the text “andrewstucken.com” with the link https://www.andrewstucken.com

and the words “payments Page” linked to https://appliedtranslations.co.uk/?page_id=15

Some of the links do work – I am mystified as to why some do and some don’t.

Hmm, strange.

The code I posted isn’t showing up on this forum, either.

< href=”https://www.andrewstucken.com&#8221; title=”My Website”
target=”_blank”>

I just typed this in manually. The last bit, /a imside two chevrons, is not showing up however.

Hi

Thanks for your reply.

I thought that I had linked text – this is the result:

This is the code that the link tool inserted (exept it was all on one line)

Does this shed any light on what is wrong?

Thee are a few of these issues across my two websites.

Thankyou. Done!

I see what you mean now. It is much simpler than I thought. Thanks!
