footer removal, non theme related

    I am getting the “Powered by WordPress MU and WP.MU” footer added to the bottom of all of my sites in addition to the footer being called by the theme.

    When I go into any theme’s footer.php and remove <?php wp_footer(); ?> it gets rid of it but also disables the admin bar.
    Here is an example of the code it is dropping:

    </div><!-- end wrapper -->
Powered by <a href="https://wordpressmu.org">WordPress MU</a> and <a
href="https://wp.mu">WP.MU</a>

<script type="text/javascript">

    Or you can check our rachelsadd.com or inwhichpopup.com

    If the code was tagged with any sort of CSS I would just tweak that but alas I need to find what is generating the code…

    Any help is much appreciated.

    Are you hosted by https://wp.mu/?

    Nope… hosting through psek.com

    What plugins are you using? Have you tried turning them off?

    There’s nothing in WP core that references either wp.mu or wordpressmu.org so it’s either your theme (not), your plugins (maybe) or your host.

    This is what I am running. Oh, and I had sent a support ticket to my host… they basically said it wasn’t them.

    WP.MU

    What’s that?

    Also any plugins from wpmudev (like Remove WPMU remote calls) may be using that, since https://wp.mu/ is them

    While putting in ads like that in your footer is against the WP rules, they’re not enforced for plugins hosted outside the WordPress repository.If any plugins from this domain ARE doing that, let me know!

    All of the “Must Use” plugin were not plugins that I can control via the dashboard, nor do I recall intentionally loading them.

    I am thinking that I am going to have to pick them apart to figure out what is doing it. The only plugin I can recall that ties back to them is the Domain mapping. Oh, and before I start fiddling with “must” plugins I will have to research what is safe for me to tool with.

    That’s … Not good. Rename mu-plugins to mu-plugins old and see if that changes it. That’s the down and dirty way to do it.

    If it remains, then have another talk with psek (I think they have a hosting partnership with IncSub, who is the power behind wp.mu). NONE of those URLs are from WordPress, none are for official WP sites. They’re all from WPmudev.com and that sort of injection is not permitted on www.remarpro.com provided themes and plugins.

    Did as you advised and low and behold issue gone. What the hell is the “mu-plugins” folder and must I have it? (sorry if that is a lame question)

    Thanks for the help. It was the wp.mu.php file that was doing it. Removed it from the directory and the issue is resolved.

    The mu-plugins folder are plugins that are auto-run on all sites in your network. It’s best used for plugins that need no interaction, or sitewide functions. Nothing’s wrong with using it, but they’re all on, for all sites, all the time.
