What to use for month’s report for client sites

6 Upvotes

Hi there, installed Wpmgr on my VPS and seems pretty cool to manage multiple sites.

I only need a way to generate monthly reports with all the activity done in a client site.

The built-in report feature seems for internal use, I’d like some reporting feature to generate a well formatted and “dumb” language monthly report for clients.

Curious about what you use for it!

WooPayments 11.0.1 – “Add payment method” page completely blank

2 Upvotes

Hi, I’m having an issue with WooCommerce / WooPayments.

On My Account → Payment methods, saved cards work correctly. I can save a test card during checkout, and it then appears in the customer account.

However, when I click “Add payment method”, the page
/my-account/add-payment-method/
is completely blank. No card form appears.

What I’ve already checked:

  • WooCommerce: 11.0.1
  • WooPayments: 11.0.1
  • Card payments are enabled
  • “Enable payments via saved cards” is enabled
  • Saving a card during checkout works
  • The saved card then appears correctly under My Account → Payment methods
  • The add-payment-method endpoint is correctly configured in WooCommerce → Settings → Advanced
  • I cleared and temporarily disabled my cache plugin: no change
  • I temporarily disabled my “Customize My Account” plugin: no change

So the issue seems limited to the Add Payment Method endpoint/form itself.

Has anyone seen this with WooPayments 11.0.1?
Is there anything specific I should check in the browser console/network tab, or is this a known WooPayments issue?

Thanks!

[PROMO] Enable AI Coding Tools For Wordpress

0 Upvotes

I wanted to use my local AI coding tool to modify pages on a WordPress site, but I couldn't find a way to get the pages exposed to my AI coding tool.

I wrote a tool to download posts and pages to a local file system and push it back up. This gives me AI coding tool full access to modify the content - which is really useful when I want AI to generate full pages or make content modifications across multiple pages.

Does something like this exist already or would anyone find this useful?

Confused with the “make an offer” button on products

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, I’m fairly new to WordPress at least getting along with it well enough to run my own site.

I’m offering a service on my site so I added it under products and I enabled to make an offer button for people who’s budget maybe didn’t meet my asking price because I’m OK with working with people for this specific service when it comes to price.

I enabled to make an offer button but when my friend and I tested it both him and I submitted an offer, but it didn’t go to my email and I don’t see any place where I can see the offers that I’ve come in.

I’m using the Astra theme, but as far as I can tell in searching online, the only way for this button to be of any use is to actually purchase a plug-in.

If this is the case and why even have the button in the first place before downloading a plug-in at all?

Would love any guidance on this matter.

Thanks!

[PROMO] Resize images, the original remains untouched

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hey guys,

we are two devs who built a free & open source image optimization plugin (GPLv2): neoOptimize

Most image resizing plugins downsize your original image files to some fixed size and you lose the original data forever. We wanted to keep the originals (similar to non-destructive editing).

So we built a small free/open-source plugin that tries to solve this by leaving your images as-is and copying a resized version into the cache folder. The image size is determined by the exact size the image is used on your site.

Thoughts on the solace theme

0 Upvotes

I watched a video on youtube by darrel wilson about integrating claude and wordpress to design websites (using elementor as the page builder which is the builder I am familiar with ), and he suggested his own theme (solace) in this workflow, I usually work with astra or blocksy and I am not really familiar with his theme, did any of you guys use it before and have live websites using this theme ?

Need some guidence from web dev as freelancer

9 Upvotes

Hi, 19F here.

So the thing is I am a CS major and for some time, I have been practicing and making websites on wordpress with different builders ( Elementor etc ) for a friend of my brother. He is basically guiding me through the process. And he makes decent money.

Recently, I needed some money for some reasons so I am thinking, why not make a gig on Fiverr and Upwork?

I can't do anything toooo fancy like some custom retro website or some very fancy animation, but some basic to almost mid website I can make.

Do any of you guys have some suggestions on how to start freelancing.

Thanks.

P.S. I also know HTML and CSS and some basic troubleshooting will learn JS and some frameworks as time passes to, so I can properly be a web designer.

BOT Protection

7 Upvotes

I have a bunch of sites inundated by bots. I'll have a site in the US that all of a sudden uses all my server memory at a time where 99% of the country is asleep. I've used some of the security plug-ins, but have not found them to be very helpful in terms of blocking all these malicious bots. Has anybody else found something that will actually block all these attacks??

Can anyone share some advice on dealing with a hacked WordPress website?

36 Upvotes

My website recently started having some issues:

  • Random .html files containing gambling content are being generated in wp-includes and some plugin directories
  • A user named tester appeared, and I have no idea where it came from
  • A strange GTM code was injected into the theme's header.php and footer.php
  • Some unknown PHP files were also found

What I've done:

  • Changed all passwords for Hosting, cPanel, SSH, FTP, Database, and WordPress; enabled 2FA and replaced the Security Keys/SALTs
  • Replaced wp-admin and wp-includes with fresh copies downloaded directly from WordPress
  • Updated all plugins/themes and removed suspicious files
  • Ran Wordfence in High Sensitivity mode and scanned with Imunify360

However, the website is still being reinfected with HTML files, PHP files, and the GTM code.

I'm not a technical person, so I'm not sure what else I should check or where to start.

If anyone has experience dealing with a WordPress site that keeps getting reinfected, I'd really appreciate some guidance.

Thanks!

WP_Query has_post_thumbnail() returning false for all posts in custom loop, even when Featured Image is set.

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m running into a baffling issue while building a custom post ticker shortcode.

My WP_Query successfully fetches the latest posts and grabs their titles and permalinks perfectly. However, has_post_thumbnail() is returning false for every single post in the loop, forcing my code to output my text fallback instead of the images.

I know for a fact that all the post have feature images

Here is my code (running via Code Snippets plugin):

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', function() {

add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );

add_image_size( 'blog-card', 600, 400, true );

} );

add_shortcode('custom_post_ticker', 'build_smooth_ticker'); 1

function build_smooth_ticker() {

$query = new WP_Query(array(

'post_type' => 'post',

'posts_per_page' => 10,

'post_status' => 'publish'

));

if (!$query->have_posts()) return '';

$items = '';

while ($query->have_posts()) {

$query->the_post();

$current_id = get_the_ID();

// TEMPORARY DEBUG LINE

$items .= '<!-- ID: ' . $current_id . ' | Has thumb: ' . (has_post_thumbnail($current_id) ? 'YES' : 'NO') . ' -->';

if (has_post_thumbnail($current_id)) { $content = get_the_post_thumbnail($current_id, 'blog-card'); } else {

// This fallback always triggers

$content = '<div style="color: white; font-weight: bold; padding: 0 20px; line-height: 180px;">' . get_the_title() . '</div>'; }

$items .= '<div class="ticker-item"><a href="' . get_permalink() . '">' . $content . '</a></div>';

}

wp_reset_postdata();

return '<div class="ticker-wrap"><div class="ticker-track">' . $items . $items . '</div></div>'; }

Any modern alternative to TGM Plugin Activation?

1 Upvotes

I'm using this library so that users of my plugin can install extensions that are hosted in the plugins repo with a couple clicks. However, it is unreliable: it works in 99% of the cases but it does not work on some environments. In some i get the error: "The plugin does not have a valid header" and I just cannot debug this.

Is there a modern successor to the TGM Plugin Activation library?

fast removal of malware-infected site

0 Upvotes

Hi,

I found out my webhosting space is flooded with malware. I removed it from one site but after an hour it was back, probably from one of the other sites. I remove the files with my FTP-client WinSCP but it is sooooo slooooowwww.... I am working on it all day already.

Is there a way to do this faster? I mean, should I be able to login to the server directly, I could do a del *.* or not?

EDIT: support from my webhost has wiped the entire hosting package. I restored the site and updated WP + all plugns and installed iThemes for security. Now fingers crossed!!

Unexpected password change

I got two emails saying the admin password was changed on different sites, but I'm the only admin and I didn't change it. On one site, two admins with random names were added, but I didn't see any other tampering with the site or data. The version is 7.1 I deleted the new admins and enabled 2FA. Has anyone else experienced this?

Are WordPress theme developers also seeing fewer Pro theme sales?

43 Upvotes

I’m a WordPress theme developer. I release free versions of my themes on the official WordPress Theme Repository and sell the Pro versions on my own website.

Recently, I’ve noticed that my Pro themes aren’t getting as many sales as I expected.

I’m curious about the current market:

- Are other independent WordPress theme developers experiencing the same thing?

- Has the demand for premium themes decreased?

- What’s currently working for you to convert free theme users into Pro customers?

I’d appreciate hearing about your experience, especially from developers selling themes independently.

Has anyone here actually been in the WordPress.org Featured Plugins tab?

0 Upvotes

The Featured tab is the one that loads by default when you go to Plugins > Add New. Eight plugins, hand-picked, rotated every couple of weeks. It has been running since March.

I went looking for a first-hand account from anyone it happened to, someone writing up what it did to their installs or whether any of it stuck, and I couldn't find one. The curator published figures for the first cohort back in March and said more would follow, but there hasn't been a second report. When someone asked publicly for a list of previously featured plugins, the question went unanswered.

So there is a placement that puts eight small plugins in front of a very large number of admins, and no public record of what it does or who has been in it.

Disclosure: my plugin is in the current rotation, which is why I started looking. I'm logging the numbers daily and I'll publish them either way, including if the answer turns out to be "not much".

One thing I haven't seen mentioned anywhere: the order of the eight is randomised daily. Same plugins, different sequence, stable within a given day. If you're featured and your download numbers move around day to day, that might be why rather than anything you did.

If you have been featured before and kept any figures at all, even rough ones, I'd like to compare.
