aha! that be it. O well no room for double appreciation’s in that case. so sorry for you. ??

Tobias, I tried to ad a 5 star rating to your plugin, but it will not take it. Any idea as to why? I am logged in to my WP account.

as always you are an Ace Tobias! Sorry that I did not see that this is an option!

thanks leejosepho, I have a read later today.

thanks for clarifying amsgator.

thanks bemdesign. I try the plugin.

great leejosepho

for clarity, you ad the code to your htaccess file?

Again thanks for posting.

an other question if I may.

are you saying that using any securety plug-ins, as mentioned for example in the above link I posted (https://masterblogster.com/useful-plugins-to-secure-wordpress-website/) are of no use? Or do they add extra security on top of what you guys suggest?

example, I found one that claims to hide your WP version. I also read an article that you can not hide it as it always shows ups somewhere (again I do not always understand the technical bits).

You see all novice questions, but grateful for your help.

amsgator I say thank you.

Adding this code to your .htacess file

Is that the invisible one at top level? I did once something to it (beginners mistake, using a plug-in) and it locked me out. not a big deal, but I learned.

Otherwise good info.

I will look at this later as today I need to upgrade my home computers so will be busy al day. might post more questions.

The additions you suggest, I just paste at the end of the file?

thanks bemdesign

do you suggest I set all files and folders to this? I mean all that are of lower permission as 755?

interesting reading, although I do not claim to fully comprehend it all.

In it it said that if you installed WP your self (as I did) you probably do not need to worry about anything. would you agree about that?

and yes at them moment while building I do backups (by hand), but need to look at a automated system as I go life.

bemdesign thank you.

I am going to read the link you suggested.

PM send yesterday. Thanks.

I do, can I PM you? I seem to not be bale to find this function here. See the site is of line and since the legal bits are not ready I do not want to open it.

thanks that helped.
