I would recommend a Linux Malware Detect and FindBot.pl scan & analysis at the command line level by a professional.

You’ll need to change all the URL’s in the WordPress database as well.

Your options:

Download the SQL database and open it in Wordpad.exe and do a find and replace with the domain, then use PHPMyAdmin to import the database again.

Option 2:

Use this plugin: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/go-live-update-urls/screenshots/ or somthing similar.

On the new server (or domain) open wp-config.php and update the file with the following so you can access /wp-admin/

define(‘WP_HOME’, ‘https://www.YOUR-DOMAIN.com’); // no trailing slash
define(‘WP_SITEURL’, ‘https://www.YOUR-DOMAIN.com’); // no trailing slash

Then log in to the wp-admin dashboard and update the database URL’s with the plugin referenced above.

I recommend a anti-comment spam plugin called “NoSpamNX”, but that is just for comment spam. Second, install “Limit Login Attempts”. You’ll be doing yourself a favor.

Do you actually need people to register on the site or not? If not, then disable that completely:

In your Settings > Options > General

Membership

* Anyone can register – Check this checkbox if you want anyone in cyberspace to be able to register an account on your blog.

* Users must be registered and logged in to comment – If this checkbox is checked, only logged in registered users will be able to write comments on your site.

We’ve noticed sometimes the SSL content fixer plugins don’t fix 100% of items. You’ll need to do a database search and replace with this plugin:

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/search-and-replace/

Search for: https://www.your-domain-name.com

Replace with: https://www.your-domain-name.com

Even then, you’ll need to manually go through all of your CSS and PHP files and fix references to CSS stylesheets and images that are still https://

https://www.whynopadlock.com will help you identify which page elements are causing you to have a broken padlock in the browser URL bar.

If you’re running Cloudflare SSL you’ll need this plugin as well:

Best of luck!

You need proper open graph tags.

Try this plugin: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wp-facebook-open-graph-protocol/

Ensure you clear your site cache after enabling if you have any caching plugins.

Also, please try with a different post as Facebook server’s cache the last pulled page.

Hi Bob,

Since this is a server issue and not a suspected WordPress issues, please open a ticket TransNOC.com/open with your contact information and we’ll try to help you.

Your host probably had PHP script execution time limits which are set low. The not all photos can be downloaded before that timer runs out.

It appears your blog may have been compromised as there is a file upload script in your /wp-admin/ directory.

I would recommend ignoring those e-mails (and possibly telling your e-mail to auto delete them).

Brute force attempts are a fact of life when using any content management system. Unless your noticing unusual slowness on your site, just ignore them. Do keep all of your plugins up to date, and use a semi-strong password for the “admin” account.

Try “NoSpamNX”. Works well for me.

Deactivate the “cherry plugin” by renaming it in your /wp-content/plugins/ directory via cPanel file manager or FTP.

Best of luck!

Check the plugins you are using, deactivate all the non critical ones, update all others.

Ask your host to run a malware scan on your account. If you run a VPS/Dedicated server use Linux Malware Detect to scan your /home directory.

Run a local malware scan on your PC with MalwareBytes Free, remove anything that was found. It’s possible you may have a local password keylogger trojan installed on your webmaster PC.

Use htaccess rules to help protect your WordPress blog.

Login to your cPanel or your host’s other control panel > Go to File Manager > go to /public_html/wp-content/plugins/ and rename the “twitter” folder to something else like twitter_disabled and try again.

It seems that “Twitter” plugin whatever it is is causing the issue. Perhaps the creators of that plugin haven’t kept it up to date to be compatible with the latest version of WordPress.

Then try logging in again. Your host may have updated to PHP 5.4 and perhaps this plugin isn’t updated for PHP 5.4 yet.

Does the problem occur before or after you login? I can get to the wp-admin login page.

Login to your cPanel > Go to File Manager > go to /public_html/wp-content/plugins/ and rename the “cta” folder to something else like cta_disabled and try again.

It seems that “CTA” plugin whatever it is is causing the issue. Perhaps the creators of that plugin haven’t kept it up to date to be compatible with the latest version of WordPress.
