It's possible I don't know how to ask the right question, but I can't seem to find an answer to what's going on here anywhere. I have a Wordpress installation at example123.com, and want to set up a node application to run at licensing.example123.com. The problem I'm running into is when I put in licensing.example123.com, I keep getting forwarded to the wordpress site. I can't figure out a way to stop it. I don't see any special rules in .htaccess.. Does anybody have any ideas? Further details can be furnished upon request. TIA!

I have a problem with my website, I get information from wordfence about my WordPress website getting hacked
enter image description here add found a code eval($_SERVER['HTTP_81DB2B3'] so i removed it but in a few second the code going back. someone, please help me
I had something very similar to this. Go to your cPanel and search for "Cron Jobs" and scroll down to see if there's any malicious cronjobs setup. You might have some that look like eval(gzinflate(base64_decode(.... that are essentially causing this to reoccur. Not a complete fix to this issue, but you'll have to delete those cronjobs to ensure that that line of code doesn't keep reappearing. In addition to that, you'll also need to make sure those cronjobs don't show up again. Use a plugin like Wordfence (suggested above as well) to look for malicious files and if it helps replace your home directory (except for wp-content and wp-config) with fresh files.
If your website got hacked then I guess more than 1 file was affected by it,
case-1: If you are able to access the Wordpress Backend In this case, if you are able to access the Wordpress backend then I suggest you
Step-1: Add one plugin called (Wordfence Security – Firewall & Malware Scan
) and scan your website with it.
Step-2: After scanning the site remove all suspicious code from the site.
Case 2: If you are not able to access the Wordpress backend then you have to update your Wordpress manually with the hosting file manager or FTP.
Please Note: Please take a backup of your website before do any changes.
http://sidparmar.ca/portfolio/ This is my portfolio website and an only home page is working with the domain name. Every link is broken unless replaced by IP of my VPS which is 64.20.53.42.
So usually it should work like sidparmar.ca/portfolio/contact/ (give me an error "The requested URL /portfolio/resume/ was not found on this server.")
but currently, it is only working if I type 64.20.53.42/portfolio/contact/ as URL.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions/advice or pointer that I should look into. Any help is appreciated.
Has your site been like this since you installed Wordpress? If so, then where did you install wordpress (i.e. what directory)? It looks like you did not install it in the web root directory of your web server. Also, when you installed Wordpress, are you sure you specified the correct URL of your website?
My suggestion based on the limited information you provided and the minor amount of custom content of your website is to simply delete your database and files, create a new database, and re-installation Wordpress following exactly the correct instructions. Your VPS host may have an outlined process for you.
Alternatively, if this is a new issue, do you think you caused it? If so, what did you do? If not, you should probably contact your VPS host to see if you or they need to make an update in your DNS settings.
Found the answer by myself! Yeah!
I just added "ServerAlias www.domainname.ca" to my apache2 conf file (000-default.conf) which you can probably find at /etc/apache2/sites-available directory in your VPS.
Not sure why this worked or what exactly caused the problem but I am sure that it happened because of Yoast SEO plugin.
I installed a wordpress site. The visitors can only see the site without the prefix WWW. If someone types the website name with www, there is a "site not installed page". I am with OVH hosting and they are blaming the wordpress but I am sure that someone without good knowledge answered as the problem was the same even before the wp installation took place. If I change wp url location in the backend to www.mysite.com there is a backend lockout till I edit the database directly with the url without www.
My questions:
1> How to make my website accessible with both versions of the url (www+no www)? I want the www to appear in the address bar.
2> I do not want SEO rank loss due to duplicate content.
Please help as the customer care sucks and for 2 weeks they cant solve this problem. I am sure someone out here can please provide a few steps which I can follow and implement what I want. Thanks a lot in advance.
You may want to check with your hosting provider. I think technically, they are different URLs. Your host should be able to link both I would imagine.
I have a client who has asked me to start working on their Wordpress site. The admin page is broken and I do not have access to the database yet (I am trying to track down the previous people who worked on it). It is quite messy, I know.
What I am doing now is migrating peices over to a new wordpress site using Wamp server just to get it functional, but I am wondering if the solution is simpler than that. Ideally, I would just fix the the login, but I have minimal Wordpress experience and don't know where to start.
Here is the website: http://fundafighter.com
If you go to http://fundafighter.com/wp-admin you'll notice that it is broken. I reroutes to "login-2", which I don't think is normal. So far I haven't found any folder with that title...
I would log into the site via FTP, check the wp-config.php file for any redirects for wp-login.php. Then, check the .htaccess file for the same. Remove any references.
If you get that page working, and you need to reset the password, I would follow this tutorial through phpMyAdmin:

I've migrated my Wordpress blog to OpenShift recently. It works perfect until when you try to add a custom domain alias to your installation.
The OpenShift URL for my blog is blog-latifetunc.rhcloud.com
I added the following URL as alias: blog.latifetunc.com
(Sorry I couldn't attach images since I don't have enough reputation points. Instead I put links to images. This is my first question in StackOverflow.)
http://www.alpertunc.com/q1.png
I successfully added the CNAME record for my domain to point blog.latifetunc.com to blog-latifetunc.rhcloud.com in GoDaddy
http://www.alpertunc.com/q2.png
The problem pops up when I try to reach my blog with this alias. It says:
Safari can't verify the identity of the website "blog.latifetunc.com".
The certificate for this website is invalid. You might be connecting to a website that is pretending to be "blog.latifetunc.com", which could put your confidential information at risk. Would you like to connect to the website anyway?
(I can't even post more than two links without 10 reputation points :( So please put the above URL in front of below images as well.)

If you click "Continue" it works fine but this alert is very scary for many users. I searched for hours for a solution with no luck. I considered buying a security certificate as well but then I thought this blog was working with an alias in its previous installation too. However we never had such an alert in browser while visiting either via the main domain or the alias.
The previous installation was on IIS and the binding were as following:
q4.png
Then when my brain was about to explode I found out that the alert is due to https. When I checked Settings from my Wordpress dashboard I realised that somehow OpenShift installs Wordpress on https and sets the permalinks to https.
q5.png
In fact whatever you type that points to *.rhcloud.com is converted to https. I know that because I added the CNAME for www.latifetunc.net to point to blog-latifetunc.rhcloud.com as well but didn't add the alias in OpenShift Applications. So www.latifetunc.net resolves to blog-latifetunc.rhcloud.com but since there is no alias defined (hence there is no vhost entry in Apache) it gives error. But even that error is in port 443!
q6.png
My main problem is to get rid of the certificate error while visiting my blog via my alias domain name. I really appreciate any help on that one.
My related question is that why on earth permalinks start with https on OpenShift Wordpress installation? If I can solve that, probably I'll solve my main problem as well.
Thanks a lot!
I checked blog.latifetunc.com on safari,chrome,firefox, and opera and I didn't get any warnings so you much have figured out a solution. However for others who may stumble across this I've provided some information:
By default OpenShift applications accept traffic on both http and https. So if you're wanting to have a custom domain but aren't worried about ssl than you can simply just use the http connection to your application (http://myapp.com). If you are wanting to apply a SSL certificate and you're on one of the plans that allow it (bronze or silver). The documentation to apply it, is in the SSL Section of the OpenShift Online User Guide.
