Hackers

  • A day after installing I get attempts to hack into my site. Logged ip’s are from France.

    Hi:

    Hackbots are constantly trying to get access to sites. Just installing WordPress and making it public is enough. If you install a security plugin like Wordfence etc. you’ll see the hits without hours of installing a clean site. That’s just part of the WordPress/Web ecosystem. That has nothing to do with the Awesome Support plugin.

    You really shouldn’t assign a 1 star rating to a plugin for this.

    Thanks.

    Hello:

    We’re hoping you might take another look at the rating you assigned us on this since the issue you encountered isn’t really related to our plugin – it is just part of running a WordPress site on the internet these days.

    Thanks very much!
