Hi Jules. I did.

Any time frame? I can see the pro version being useful on a few sites we run.

Yes, it says a user of wordpress should be an expert in it. I am exactly the type of person that they are talking about, a normal everyday user that doesn’t have the time or energy to learn about php or web security.

Probably my fault for assuming that i could install Wrodpress, add a theme, make my site look nice, and expecting it not to be hacked every week.

Thanks for the list of links. I don’t have the technical knowledge to change MySQL users passwords and I’m really not up for wiping the lot and starting again as I did this a few months back.

Also, the “injected malware” comes and goes without me actually doing anything, so it’s difficult to look through the files etc to try to catch it. For example this morning when I got to work, sucuri.net was showing that my site was infected, now without changing anything it’s saying that it is clean. This has happened a few times.

As I don’t need any blogging features then I’m off wordpress until either they make it more secure or I am able to fix the problems easier when they do arise.

I have had the same problem since I started my small business 2 years ago.

Every few weeks I’m getting messages saying there is malware on my wordpress sites. Today it has javascript malware. It’s got to the point where it is taking too much time to deal with than it’s worth and I might just find a nice html theme instead.

The frustrating thing is that you can search forever and a day for generic links but there is no simple fix for it. Completely wiping my server isn’t a simple thing to do at all.

It’s a shame there isn’t a simple, watered down version of wordpress for people like me that don’t require the blogging features of wordpress but just want a nice simple site they can add pages to and put a nice looking theme on that was more secure.
