The Problem…

Are you being asked by WordPress for FTP information every time you try to install a new plugin, update a plugin, or install a new WordPress theme? This may look familiar…

“Connection Information

WordPress just released their most recent version of their CMS – version 3.5.

A lot of people are experiencing problems with updating and when they do update they’re unable to access the back-end of their website. Instead what they see when they visit theirsite.com/wp-admin/ is a blank page with an error message at the top saying….

Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_home_path() in [insert your site path here]/public_html/wp-admin/includes/misc.php on line 128

Recently I was vising one of my many WordPress sites when I received a warning from my virus scanner that it had blocked an attack.

After seeing this I installed the plugin ‘Antivirus’ (a free WordPress plugin I strongly recommend) which showed strange code in 3 of the theme files, the index.php, footer.php, and header.php files all had the code below tagged onto the end of them.

So I immediately removed the code from those files, then noticed that all of the other wordpress blogs on the same server had that code as well so I removed it on them too.
