Great, Awesome!
That solved it!!

I believe the banner image is dynamic… the background moves at a different speed than the scroll. I did not create it, I just used a template as I learn to use it.

It’s only on one post… again, as I test and learn.

I will look into the layout parts and see if I can solve it from there (thank you for that). Themify themes look great with awesome functionality, but I did not know about Themify when I built the site. Perhaps switching or using Themify for another site will be a good future choice – as I said, I like what I see!

I will modify this thread after I check out layout parts.

Thanks!
Scott

Hey thanks, the first part worked for the front page header of my Genesis theme (for those reading this with the same theme, I set padding to 95).

I am unable to make the second part work because there is nothing “common” in my post url’s. My permalinks are set to post name, so my posts and my pages use names and look the same based on the titles.

I just wanted to share that this problem went away. I do not know what caused it, but everything just started working properly again.

Just to clarify for anyone reading this thread who is receiving, or has received a Wordfence message regarding any plugin by LittleBizzy.

I think the plugins are functioning fine, and the messages we are receiving from Wordfence is a result of delisting the plugins from WordPress.

I did reach out to LittleBizzy (December 15, 2018) to find out what’s going on. I sent the founder, Jesse Nickles, an email asking if the plugin that was delisted from WordPress is safe to use, and in the same email I also asked him about promoting his products.

He replied that the conversation has been closed for one of three stated reasons, none of which made sense. So I replied asking for clarity, and he replied as follows: “Added to our banned clients list for harassing our team for free support”. It seemed to me like he was going through some personal problems, so I just let it go.

I received an email today (hence my follow up here) from another person who inquired about the plugin and was also added to their “banned” list. Apparently Jesse is publishing the banned client list with names, email addresses, and websites. It doesn’t bother me, but anyone reading this thread should be aware of what is going on. His free plugins seem to work well, but I would hesitate to do any paid business with him.

Thank you Kevin

Thank you all… much appreciated!

I now realize that I have a dynamic IP, so the login email address may have been mine. But that does not explain why it showed the wrong location (San Jose). I ran a virus and malware scan as instructed. All my sites use different passwords, so no need to make changes there. I also ran a WordFence scan and no issues were found. Should I have any further concerns?

IE did provide a different result before and after clearing cache and cookies running the Sucuri scan… so maybe it is possible they save the results on my computer. I’m not technical enough to know, and I am not sure why the Sucuri scan still shows malware (when I run it).

Thanks for telling me about GravityScan. My site looks clean!

Thanks for the response @bluebearmedia. Based on your reply, I cleared cookies and cache, and found that IE now shows no malware, Chrome still shows malware, and Firefox still shows malware.

I find this very odd and I’m not sure what to make of it.

I deleted Wordfence and removed the tables using the assistant before reinstalling it. It is working fine mow, but I did not attempt any configuration yet. I will configure the firewall (for the first time) tomorrow.

Would you know why the Sucuri scan says there is malware? Wordfence indicates that it is clean!! Could the Sucuri scan result have something to do with my former host? Sucuri scan results: https://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/investinggoldnow.com

I have an update!

My site is running, yet I still need help.
I had Bluehost deactivate my plugins and the site came right back up. I re-activated all except Wordfence.

I want to run Wordfence, how shall I proceed?
It may be helpful for you to know that I migrated the site from another host, which had previously been disabled due to malware. Everything seems fine now on the new host. Oddly, when I run a scan from Sucuri (https://sitecheck.sucuri.net/) it says I have malware, but incorrectly tells me that there is a suspended page redirect (which there was when it was on the other host). Could there be some code regarding suspension that migrated over? Maybe that has something to do with the Wordfence issue…. just a thought

PHP Info
I found an article showing me how to find my php.ini
It should be located here: /opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/etc/php.ini
I don’t know how to access that file
You can see all the php info here: https://thinkblissful.com/phpinfo.php

Also note that I did not setup the firewall yet… I was making initial adjustments to the new Wordfence install when the issue occurred.

Thanks for the reply.

There’s no code from Wordfence in .htaccess
I cannot find the other two files: user.ini & php.ini
Where would they be?

I do see the wordfence-waf.php but I’ll wait to remove it until after I hear back on the location of those other files/\
