Thanks Patrick, that’s great. The People tracking seems to be working nicely now.

I was chatting with Brennan over at GoSquared and told him about your plugin. He was really glad you put it up there and he’s recommending it to all his WP users so hope you can get some more downloads soon! I’d certainly like to see the plugin stay around ??

One thing that would be a huge help to me:

I’m one of the beta users for GoSquared’s new chat service. They told me that in order to chat with known People I need to enable “Secure Mode”. Here’s the info on it: https://www.gosquared.com/docs/api/javascript-tracking-code/secure-mode/

I wonder if it’s possible to update the plugin in order to do this?

Thanks!

Greg

Quick update: Apparently Gosquared People just needed some time before it started showing people correctly. It works now. Just wondering: Does the plugin send WP signups as a Gosquared event by default or do I need to create the signup event myself? Thanks

Hey Brian,

Thanks for the response. Yes I was just about to start that process when I had an idea.

Hope this helps anyone else who has a similar issue with a malicious website popup in their WordPress site.

1) Inspected the page source code. Not as hard as I thought, even for a beginner to scan the scripts and stuff, looking for anything odd. I immediately saw some stuff like ‘clk’ and other domain addresses which shouldn’t be there.

2) Copied the malicious addresses into Google, ran a search and immediately found them listed as spam. Here’s the link I was taken to:

https://blog.sucuri.net/2015/06/sweetcaptcha-service-used-to-distribute-adware.html

3) So for me the problem was the SweetCaptcha plugin I was using. It was using an iframe to link my users to spam sites. If you’re using SweetCaptcha, it might look sweet but it definitely isn’t – get rid!!

Hope it helps.

Cheers

Good tip, thanks!

Thanks KTS915.

I’ve got the functionality enabled but I’m still not sure how to change the default text? Do you happen to know which language file is it in?

Also, rather than just override the css in my child theme I would prefer to know which css file actually styles that area to begin with. I just want to understand what I’m overriding.

Thanks ??

Also just discovered this page after searching for a solution to exactly the same problem.

mglez311 thanks so much for your post, it worked perfectly for me too. I managed to get my own logo displaying just on the left of the site title and description using the css you provided so I’ve still got the text there for SEO.

You can see how this fix worked for me here: https://www.droplinkz.com

Just had to tweak the padding sizes in the css a little to get it perfect with my logo size but that was very easy. Also, adding the css file and header.php file to the child theme folder is brilliant as the customisations stay even if you upgrade the theme.

Thanks everyone! ??
