I can’t see your images due to a firewall issue, but the way I would fix this would be to carve the page out of the Database.

If you have access to your MySQL database (MyPhpAdmin?), you can get into the table structure and remove the offending page. I wish I could find an easy writeup of this for you, but I can’t even see my DB at the moment due to firewall issues…

Yup, the standard header is a div tag named “header” so if you disable it via CSS, everything in it is gone.

Try header.php for that theme and you should find the offending text, if not, its in the image.

Agreed, either use <br /> or <p></p> should work without problems.

Have you verified that the connection string/host name for the DB hasn’t changed? Some smaller hosts use “localhost” for the MySQL server, but change it when they start growing larger.

Another issue could be your username. Some DB’s are setup, like mine, to require the web username before the db username (ie: sample is your website(sample.com) and wp is your mysql user = sample_wp as the full username)

To me, it sounds like your data was migrated to a new server.

Create your sub-directory and FTP the files into that directory and start the normal install process. So, instead of https://www.sample.com/ you can install it at https://www.sample.com/subdir/

This also means that your wp-admin section is below all that as well: https://www.sample.com/subdir/wp-admin/

Pretty easy to setup, just make sure to double check the install locations during the setup process and under wp-admin/ Options menu.

Don’t know anything about the theme but from the sound of it, the text is either embedded as normal HTML in the header.php for the theme or it will be embedded into the header image.

Sounds like something happened on the backside and you may be possibly serving porn out via leeching methods to other sites.

I would call your host and have them secure your directory and remove the files (CHMOD and & CHOWN) then think very carefully about whether to reinstall from scratch, which is what I would do. Reinstalling from scratch would be having the host delete your www folder and recreating it (leaving your MySQL DB intact) so that there are no extra scripts or modified files within your install. It also resets any folder and file permissions when you reinstall WP.

Well, when I clicked on the test post inside WP, I was given the option of commenting, so that does work.

As for the username/password, you should at least have the admin password. (User Admin, password is the random password or what you chose after you logged in)

If you don’t remember the admin password, go to the main login page (vhttps://springvalleyhoa.org/blog/wp-admin) and click on the Lost Password link and it will email you the new password.

Also, you don’t have to redo your whole site, you already have a blog link on the bottom of your menu pointing to a page, so on the About Blog page, add a link to the blog (https://springvalleyhoa.org/blog/) and it will link to the top page for the blog.

On the WP side, you won’t have problems.

If you’re just upgraded a stock PHP without many customizations, you’ll be fine, just backup everything first.

It shouldn’t, but it depends on how heavily you’ve customized PHP. As always, backup everything before you upgrade PHP and if you have your own server, it would be wise to take a backup snapshot before you upgrade as well.

I’ve seen this error pop up due to a plugin. Have you renamed your plugin folder?

Well, I can’t see any sidebar Google code, but what I can see is that you have 9+ Google Ads on the main page. It appears that you’ve removed the sidebar ad.

As for removing the new widget, thats not really possible since its built into WP2.2 from what I understand.

This is and isn’t a bug… Check out the solution at my blog. Sorry – don’t feel like typing it all over again.
