In reply to: [Adminimize] [Plugin: Adminimize] Erratic behaviour.Hard to understand your meaning. lost in translation I think. I think my answer is, yes. I tried checking every role for all the settings I wanted to make sure this wasn’t the case. I have it setup, but I can’t adjust the settings without it doing this strange behaviour. Seems to be related to just that one section.

In reply to: Increase Number of Columns on Edit Post screenI can’t say I like the ideas of messing with the WP install directly but i’m going to give it a shot. @ Mark, I asume your functions code goes into the functions file located in the wp-includes functions file? I guess I’ll find out soon. Also I assume this needs to be repeated every time WordPress update? Cheers, Brook

In reply to: Site hacked using a contributors accountReceived this email just now. A big thanks to ElegantThemes +1 to them.

Hello,You are receiving this email because you are an active member of ElegantThemes.com. In the past, our themes have used a popular image re-sizing script called Timthumb (https://www.binarymoon.co.uk/projects/timthumb/). The script is used by millions of sites and is quite popular in the WordPress themeing community. That being said, it was noted yesterday that a vulnerability exists within certain versions of the script (https://code.google.com/p/timthumb/issues/detail?id=212), and therefore this vulnerability may also exist in your theme (depending on when you last updated it). While that author has provided a fix, it is highly recommended that you update all of your EelgantThemes themes to their latest versions. The latest versions of our themes no longer utilize the timthumb script and therefore are not subject to this security hole.
Regardless of when you last updated your theme, I would strongly suggest that everyone update their themes to the latest version and insure that the timthumb.php file and your /cache folder has been removed. To update your theme and remove the file, simply delete your current theme via the Appearances > Themes section of the WordPress Dashboard. Then you can re-download the theme from the members area and re-upload it normally:
https://www.elegantthemes.com/members-area/documentation.html#installdashboard
The latest theme versions require that your thumbnail images be hosted on the same domain name where WordPress is installed. If you were previously using timthumb.php to allow external image source by editing the file?s $allowedSites array, then these thumbnails will no longer function.
Before updating the theme, make sure that you are using the latest version of WordPress. I would also disable all of your plugins temporarily before doing any update to insure that no compatibility issues exist. Remember to always keep WordPress, your Themes and your Plugins up-to-date to help protect yourself against any vulnerabilities.
I am sorry for any inconvenience this has caused.

In reply to: Site hacked using a contributors accountThanks for your replies.
You don’t know for a fact there isn’t a vulnerability. One way or another someone did hack the site in some way and attributed it to that user. Whether they “logged-in using that account or used some other method and just attributed it to that account, I don’t know. It’s possible they hacked in using a vulnerability and the word-press system automatically assigned it to one of the users. It might be reasonable to assume that the authors of word-press deliberately had the system automatically assign an “un-owned” post to a user with the lowest credentials to reduce that information being published. After all her account doesn’t have an unmoderated publishing right. If this is the case I give a hand to the authors of word-press for taking such assistive damage reducing me sure.
It’s all speculation but I think it’s necessary to put this out in the open. I didn’t imagine this.
As I mentioned, I don’t know. I don’t know that users credentials. She’s definitely not the type to knowingly compromise her account, but at the same time I haven’t a clue what her password is so I can’t tell if she made it predictable and are forced to change it regardless. I speak to her about these matters from time to time, she knows my thoughts on using predictable passwords.
I’ve explained, using dictionary words, dates, number/character swapping, adding a few digits before or after are all predictable by an automated system. That is why I personally use 20 digit (unless there is a shorter limit applied by the site) randomised alphanumeric passwords. However I can’t expect others to do the same as they are impossible to remember.
Cheers.

In reply to: one css style change based on dateHi, thanks for your response.
Ok… First, the table is straight HTML table code inserted as content within a page, and it’s not really relevant I don’t think, I just mentioned it as background to my question. It is the only page in the site using a table. Also happens to be where I especially want to use a date switching class, although it might be useful else where later. I have found code that switches entire style sheets. I wasn’t sure if I could modify it to my own ends.
Maybe I need to clarify my question without the unnecessary stuff I added before.
KISS Example:
Imagine two separate pieces of text which are encased individually in a div or span with a class and date assigned. One might be March,21 and the other might be July,12. So, before the date has occurred it uses the first, class=”before” which specifies black text in the style sheet. After the date has occurred it uses the second, class=”after” which specifies grey text in the style sheet.
This could be used in a variety of ways. For example, what I want is to have our yearly schedule cross off events as they have occurred without me doing it manually. Or one could add an item and give it the date of publication and it places a “NEW” sign to the entry which can be set to expire after a set time. Or to have a section of text appear to vanish completely after a set date.
Anyway I gather that’s a better explanation? Cheers,.

In reply to: disabling "alt" attribute when hovering over navigation@ ambrosite
Yea I’m no pro but I assumed it would work there also. But tried it on my other site and the same thing happens. I think it might be to do with the shortcodes implementation.The original themes were created by someone else whom has given me permission to alter them. They look nothing like their originals. But much of the implementation of scripts and the general framework remains close to how it was.
Cheers,.

Just got your reply. I was putting it into the header.php file where my menu php is situated.
