    Nice video, Matt. As always, instructional and funny, with quite a few bassy effects 🙂. I appreciate the "detective" like approach which, when well done, is a great pedagogical tool.

    hi thanks for the helpful video! I have a question, what level of html, css, js, php do you need to know to become a professional wordpress expert (or to be like you)? Junior, middle, senior? In fact, why do you need to know these technologies?

    • @WPressDoctor
      @WPressDoctor  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Zohid! You are very welcome! I’m glad you asked. To be a professional with WordPress some basic knowledge of CSS3 and PHP is necessary. You can also learn some JS but that’s just nice to know. But the best part of WordPress is that you actually can learn these things when already being building with WordPress for a long time. I learned these things 10 years later just because I wanted to haha, it’s not necessary but to become a expert - then yes, start with free simple courses 😀👍🏻

      in fact, I consulted my client and explained to him that he would lose all the website data if we reset it. He agreed to proceed. The issue occurred when we launched ads, and there were a lot of redirections.
      I followed both of your website cleaning tutorials and felt very happy when the website returned to normal. However, after a week, the issue resurfaced, and I had to start the cleaning process again.
      All passwords and links have been changed, and all the data has been updated and cleaned.

      @@WPressDoctor -- Yeah, I am always proactive and follow the best practises. There are no excuses to use a weak username or password when you have a password manager that always generates strong login details. You are right, and security is an ongoing thing, so please keep updating this video and keep the hacked fixing videos coming because I'm loving them.

      Hi Amol! Thank you for your question. I'm glad you could fix it using my video! That makes me happy and proud. It might take a while before Google Ads approves your website again. You can try to let them check it manually by going into Google Search Console.... that might speed things up!

    hello Matt, thanks for the greate content. I have checked my website on all platform appeared that there is no malware ( scanned with Quttera and google safe browser). however, when I check on google search result with site:my website there are a lot of gambling results. When I clicked them there are 404 pages. I do not know I can get rid of them. It is just mess with my reporting. Can you please help. thanks in advance.

    • @WPressDoctor
      @WPressDoctor  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi there! It seems that you already cleaned your website? Then in this case the results will vanish and you are good to go. If you haven't cleaned up your website, some nasty malware is hiding itself for your admin login or hiding its tracks for your IP adres. If you send me ur URL i can take a look.

    Hiya Matt, you ask for ideas on future video guides, well heres a massive one.
    How about you show us your process from start to finish, the whole process of "Handing off your site to a client"
    Even down to the "Final" configurations of the working site, there you wanted a challenge :)
    I dare you...

    • @WPressDoctor

      Hi Marc! Thanks for your great idea. It’s already on my list! Your not the first ☺️ reason why i have not already created it is because I’m struggling to make it not just a video with me only talking in the camera - so the content is not the problem - i work in a very specific way with all clients that ALWAYS works great for me and the client - but the format is. How would you prefer to see such a video?

    Username: admin if you do not change this you asked to be hacked. You can move the wp-config.php file to the root folder. XML-RPC hack is still a favorite hacking method. In the wordpress settings disable pinbacks. Your site is safe. Leuk kanaal zeker de divi tutorials. Gebruik het zelf al 7 jaar als professioneel wordpress ontwikkelaar.
