In reply to: Site description hijacked on google searchThank you.
Interestingly, it’s had Wordfence (free version) on it for years and that’s not reported anything. It’s also showing up clean on VirusTotal and Site check external scans right now. I’ll keep looking.
Hello.
I’m getting something similar. I just installed Powerpress and was taking a quick look around it when I switched to Advanced Mode. When I tried to switch back to simple mode, I received the following error message:
Internal Server Error

Please contact the server administrator at [no address given] to inform them of the time this error occurred, and the actions you performed just before this error.

In reply to: Geo Redirect based on IPThanks Justin; I’ll try that. And yes, Otto, I tested them, they didn’t work so I was assuming possibly wrongly that was a compatibility issue – but it could be that they’re just not very well written plugins!

In reply to: Geo Redirect based on IPIf they are not compatible with WP4, then install an updated version 3.9, probably 3.9.3 AND turn off auto updates
Many thanks. Trying that.
Why do you keep saying that they are not compatible with WP4?
Well, probably naive of me, but when you go to download a plugin, WP tells you that they’re “Compatible with your version of WordPress” or “Untested with your version of WordPress” and when I used older, untested versions and they don’t work, it seems reasonable to assume that means incompatible.
I’m not an experienced coder, so a little slack please.

In reply to: Geo Redirect based on IPThanks again. I might be misunderstanding, but I’m not sure how that would work for a home page. The idea would be for anybody coming to my domain from the US would automatically be redirected to another page, so they never see the home page that the rest of the world sees.
The geo IP plugins I can find that are compatible with WP4 simply display geographically relevant content – a map pin, or the location of the visitor, local stores etc.
I’ve tried a couple of plugins that – according to the reviews, at least – were successful at doing that with previous versions of WP but aren’t compatible with WP4.
Geopeeker is quite a good way cut

In reply to: Geo Redirect based on IPThanks, yes, there are loads of uses of geocode but in 90% that is simply about displaying geographically relevant content within a post. There are a handful of plugins that redirect but I can’t find any that are compatible with WP4.
