Sometimes certain plugins cause this issue too and slow down the website. Can you list down the plugins you are using?

It looks like with new installation, you’ve overwritten values in old “wp-config.php” file (it doesn’t happen normally). If you know your database name/ database username/password, please try putting it there again.

However if website is loading very slow, then it could be another issue, mostly likely with plugins.

You are welcome. I am glad that I could help.

You have to do basic SEO of your website. Install sitemap plugin, it’ll help you to crawl your website in google much faster.

It could be different reasons.

– the new installation probably overwritten your database connection in “wp-config.php” file. Please check that file and if you don’t see that information, and If you know your database name/username/password, put it there.

– try deleting .htaccess file and refresh your website.

– try updating your database tables by running this URL

https://yourwebsite.com/wp-admin/upgrade.php

go to “theme editor”, and on your right hand panel, you’ll see a file called header.php

Please put your bing tag code above </head> tag

try disabling all plugins and see if it’s happening again. sometimes a certain plugin can make your website slow.

If you can prove it’s your business entity, wordpress.com might able to help you as suggested by alchymyth.

sometimes its named as wp-config-sample.php, you can rename file to wp-config.php

Hello Dave,

This looks like a server issue to me. Ask your hosting company to upgrade PHP version or/and cURL installs.

You also may want to share your website URL with us for detailed help.

Hi Michael,

It looks like your website has been compromised. “Normally” this virus code copies itself in all index.php pages but again depending on code type, it could be any file.

@wpyogi gave a great list of links to get website cleaned. But if you are not pro, my humble honest opinion will be to get professional help.

Edit:

https://sitecheck.sucuri.net/scanner/ is a great tool, it’ll tell you exact files which are infected after you perform a scan, you may remove infected code from the files then.

You need to select the category which shows post on specific blog page. A screenshot of your admin area would be more appropriate to help you out.

And please let us know the exact error message.

Hello Woodman13,

Thanks for posting the URL. it is definitely a HTML page with embedded iframe coding. Please check if you have some file(s) with

home.html
home.htm
index.html
index.htm

in your root directory.

If it’s not too private, you may share your root directory’s screenshot with us, then we try to identify the file for you.

Thanks.
