Web Tech - Wordpress Safety: Do Not Panic!

It was Monday morning and I was on a call with a dozen others who are my peers. Each of us helps the small business owner with their businesses in one way or the other. It was at the end of the call and we were each sharing our websites and going over how to make little improvements here and there. Time was running out and there was just enough time for one more website review, I volunteered. As my site was coming up for all to see suddenly the screen turned a maroon red with an outline of a security officer with his hand stretched out and the words of"don't precede malware danger." There was more but I was too horrified to remember exactly what it said. I was worried on being destroyed plus humiliated that the people on the call had seen me vulnerable I had spent hours.



I was helped by it although my first step is. I had a good old fashion pity party. I cried and railed against the evil hackers (that where probably 13 and smarter then me) And I did before I started my site, what I should have done.

Yes, you need to do regular backups of your site. I recommend at least a weekly database backup and a monthly "full" backup. reference More, if possible. If you make additions and changes definitely. If you have a community of people that are in there all the time, or make changes multiple times every day, a backup should be a minimum.

Now we are getting into things. Whenever you install WordPress, you need to edit the file config-sample.php and rename it to config.php. You want to install the database information there.

There are always going to be risks being online (or even just being alive!) Also it's easy to get caught up in the panic. We put the breaks on, As soon as we get caught up in the panic. This isn't a reaction. Take some common sense precautions forge ahead. It is going to have image source to be addressed then, if something does happen and no amount of quaking in your will have helped. All is good, if nothing does and you have not made yourself sick.
