All blogs working fully now. It was a combo of 2 plugins causing the ruckus – deactivating CKEditor and deleting Google Analyticator allowed me to access Themes => Customise successfully in all my blogs.

Phew!

I haven’t tried that and it sounds plausible. On the other hand I am getting this error on several blogs in my account and for the same files to go missing in all of them sounds unlikely.

Thanks for the suggestion, I may try it later.

Thanks callmejim . Programming is fine it is the WP environment I am unfamiliar with. Your advice seems to imply that I have to add one more plugin to my installations and I am reluctant to do that.

I just installed this plugin in 2 blogs and I am happy with it. I would like, however to fix the position and styling of the send button…

(1) it seems to be right justified, left would be better
(2) it is grey with black test so almost unreadable. Readable is good, very good!

I noticed a code snippet kindly posted by bplanchee above but don’t know where to paste it

TIA

Thanks for the tip WFMattR!

If I get flooded with WF emails again I’ll give this a go. I love WF but I have had to disable it and use other security plugins in the past to get round this!!

And your mention of WF sending an email for each block is interesting but sounds odd nowadays when each attack comes from a different ip. With a virtually unlimited supply of proxies for the hackers we’re just going to get flooded even if it is only one email per attack.

So, hussainsam, is your question why are you being targeted or is it why is Wordfence sending so many emails?

Sooner or later all websites get attacked and that is usually by a bot or botnet. That’s why we use security plugins. I doubt that you are being picked on specifically.

My gripe with Wordfence is that although I setup the plugin to send a max of 1 email per hour I can get hundreds.

The torrent of emails – 14 or 15 every few hours in a pulse, continues. Everything else about the plugin seems perfect – it spotted some dodgy code in a couple of other plugins yesterday.

I have wordfence installed on other blogs and this is the only one with odd behaviour. The hosting, theme, plugins etc all seem to be the same.

Any ideas?

Thanks for the suggestion – I have just deleted 60 emails before I saw it!

So I have set the number of alerts to zero but I noticed that text beside that box says “0 or empty means unlimited alerts will be sent” and to me that means that even more emails will show up!

We’ll see!

as it happens I did ask Andy about this and his reply just in, confirms the above.

Like andybritnell above I just followed up a safety alert from Wordfemce and found a bitly link in the ComLuvP code.

I have not yet deleted or reinstalled the plugin – odd that andybritnell found the code even after reinstallation. It is the same file in my case too.

janellv – do you actually have Artisteer – coz if you do it may be easier for you to change the theme in Artisteer itself.

Otherwise it is commercial theme and you may not get support here. have you tried Artisteer support?

I got the same error message and I do not host this blog with godaddy but with a regular cpanel host – hostmonster.

I have never encountered this error before in anything I have done with other scripts

Running wp 2.71

the plugin looks handy for uploading themes quickly but i will not use it for plugins
