Worked great!! Thanks for all your awesome tutorials! Super awesome. Had a bit of trouble finding the file, as BlueHost wasn't showing hidden files even though the box was ticked. Found the code to work around that on YT also...and it's all good. Yes 💛 everyone sharing and helping each other. Thanks again. 👊

@Wp Learning Lab Very well explained Videos, Hats off to you man :) have some questions, After installing fresh install of wordpress, Under how much time should we tweak our htaccess file ? Should we first install our desired themes and security plugins or go for tweaking wordpress root files as soon as possible as shown in your security videos ? Please clarify.

Have a beginner question: It worked for me, tested and got the 403 error ... My question is, with so many hack attempts, I assume these 403 errors pile up in some file in my c-panel...Where would these errors go and can/how or should they ever be deleted? Thanks in advance! SUBSCRIBED!
@wplearninglab6 жыл бұрын
First, thanks for the sub! Second, I think that's an intermediate question. If you're thinking about error logs you're well beyond beginner :) In your cPanel you should have a section called 'error logs' that will contain files with error information. There isn't really a need to clear them because they're not loaded anywhere on your site. So a big error log file doesn't hurt your load speed. If you can't find the error logs in the cPanel contact your host's support. They'll be able to point you in the right direction. I hope that helps and thanks for watching!

What if you have backdoors in your wp-content file and blog file. For example: blog.dir/index.php /wp-admin/includes/class-pclzip.php /wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/includes/js/jquery.form.min.js /wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/includes/js/scripts.js /wp-content/plugins/jetpack/_inc/postmessage.js /wp-content/plugins/post-thumbnail-editor/apps/coffee-script.js /wp-content/plugins/post-thumbnail-editor/apps/angular/angular.min.js /wp-content/plugins/post-thumbnail-editor/apps/requirejs/require.js /wp-content/plugins/post-thumbnail-editor/js-build/main.js /wp-content/plugins/so-widgets-bundle/base/js/admin.js How do you patch those up?
@wplearninglab7 жыл бұрын
For plugins, the best way is keep them up-to-date. If you find vulnerabilities in a plugin tell the developer right away so that they can create a patch and release it to every one. I hope that helps and thanks for watching!

You're awesome man! Those .htaccess codes saved me a lot of time and money. Hostgator wanted me to get on Sitelock for 70 dollars a month! Can't you believe that? High way robbery. I used wordfence and blocked idiots who tried to access my logins & wp-config. Great videos.
@wplearninglab7 жыл бұрын
+Alpha Male Network $70 per month seems a little steep, but good work for saving the $. Most people don't want to be bothered with taking a couple hours to learn this stuff and would rather spend big bucks to have someone else to do it for them. Another great service to look into is cloudflare. I haven't made a tutorial for it yet, but even their free tier provides great added security for your site. Thanks for watching!

Hi Rammoss, KZbin doesn't allow the pointy brackets (Shift period and Shift comma) in descriptions so make sure they match what you see in the video. But, they allow pointy brackets in comments for some reason. So copy and paste the code below. That should solve your problem: # BEGIN Protect the wp-config.php file order allow,deny deny from all # END Protect the wp-config.php file

Hi I have checked .htaccess in file manager and I could not get it so as per your instruction I tried to create but got the error....let know what next can be done....error saying file already exist so I tried to find but did not get it...let me know..
@ReggaeWorkoutMix8 жыл бұрын
+Sarkari Job Look for Settings at the top right corner of File Manager in cPanel and click on it. You should see this option with a checkbox: Show Hidden Files (dotfiles) ...make sure there is a tick in the box! Click save and the .htaccess file will show.

@The TiK Tok Probably the most important file in your #WordPress website’s root directory is *wp-config.php* file. It contains information about your *WordPress Database* and how to connect to it. To protect your *wp-config.php* file from unauthorized access, simply add the code I have posted above to your *.htaccess* file. Hope this helps you out.

can i lock all .php in access
@wplearninglab4 жыл бұрын
You can, but that cause unexpected issues because your still needs access to lots of php files. You're best bet is to restrict access to the wp-config and set proper permissions for all the other files and folders. I have a tutorial for it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZmXNf4aQqbqdp7M I hope that helps, let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks for watching!
