In reply to: Widget Font ChangeYou will want to check out the links here for customizing your site.
Start here with a beginners guide to CSS styling.
https://www.htmldog.com/guides/css/beginner/The best way to make changes like this to a theme is to use a child theme, so your tweaks won’t be overwritten when updating the theme. Here are some guides in case you haven’t made one before:

https://www.coreftp.com/Looks like you have an issue with the plugin “grand-media”. FTP to your /wp-content/plugins/ folder and rename that plugin temporarily to “grand-media.hold” which will deactivate the plugin, then you should be able to get back in. From there you can probably get help for the plugin in their forum.

In reply to: Error 500: HELP I locked myself Out Of WordPressFirst of all I would undo what I have done if I could gain access… DUH !
If you have nothing positive to add to help, than keep your rude suggestions and opinions to yourself, and stop trolling.
Everyone here is a volunteer, Your rude comments are neither constructive nor helpful. You ask for help and are rude to the first person who answers. Good luck with your problem.

In reply to: My site was infectedI haven’t contacted the host yet, but while checking todays logs someone in the Netherlands at “IP:159.253.145.183” tried to access the file twice. Probably disappointed it wasn’t there.
Another attempt from Indonesia also.I will correct my first statement about ALL my sites. It was only added to 6 of them, not all the sites.

In reply to: My site was infectedI really don’t know. I looked at my security logs and statcounter for activity but unable to determine how it got in. This is the first time since I installed the security plugin that ANYTHING has gotten past it. There are constant attempts and that is why I paid for the security. It works very well. Does exactly what it is suppose to do.

In reply to: My site was infectedI’m in good shape. I am on a shared hosting, but also running “Bullet Proof Security Pro”. It caught the file and quarantined it immediately. I was just putting this out for other users to watch for it.

In reply to: Need HelpIf you have cPanel hosting, you may be able to access your dashboard directly from your cPanel account.
THAT BEING SAID
Most of my sites use pretty much the same plugins, theme files etc.
I only have to check a couple sites on a daily basis. If updates are there then I need to go to work, if no updates on those key sites, then the others won’t need checking.
I no longer allow anything to update “Automatically” and this is why.
When everything AUTO UPDATES and something breaks during an update and the site goes down, it’s a real PAIN in the REAR to figure out which plugin, theme or WP file broke the site. For that reason I now manually update all my sites. It takes more time, but less than fixing an unknown problem.
Been there, done that.
That is my advice.
