My colleague has installed a wordpress theme for our project and asked me to update the content on that site. so i did the same.
But unfortunately after i updated the site, he was checking the dashboard on his computer, hence it gave an error saying
"Deceptive site ahead,
Attackers in this site may trick you on doing dangerous things... and so on.."
Now he is blaming me on making this theme vulnerable.
But i just updated the content only by opening the dashboard in my laptop.
Can anyone let me know how this happened.
Please find the attached image for reference of error..
warning error given by the site on its dashboard

I'm facing an error with wordpress. I updated wordpress page by mistake and I'm getting error
The site is experiencing technical difficulties. Please check your
site admin email inbox for instructions.
When I try to access the page by admin. I can't revert the change since the unable to access the page from admin. Is there any way to fix this issue.
Kindly clarify your question, you updated one of the pages in your WordPress site or did you update WordPress to the latest version and got an error afterwards when trying to log in within the admin dashboard?
If it is a page you can't access, try disabling your plugins and see if it will be accessible. You can also try to enable WP_Debug to true from within the wp-config.php within your back-end file manager and see if the exact issue will be displayed so as to assist you with further troubleshooting.
Alternatively, if the issue arising is due to a WordPress update to the latest version, you can try renaming the plugins folder temporary from within your backend as a form of troubleshooting, if that fails, temporary rename your theme (/wp-content/themes/theme_name) to try and pinpoint the exact issue. All this can be done with the WordPress folder from cPanel, file manager.
If the above fails, go a step further and try doing stuff like PHP memory increase, post_max_size &c.
If all the above fails, refer to WordPress documentation on how to do a manual WordPress update and hopefully, the issue will be fixed.
Note: The above is just an insight of what you can look into and not a step by step guide to fixing the issue.
as you can see in the title, I am able to login my Wordpress Website dashboard with no problem at all, on my Desktop. I've been doing the changes and security/plugin/theme updates using my Desktop. What I want to do right now is to do the same on my macbook. I want to be able to do the same from my macbook but I find it weird that on my PC, the dashboard is operational but on my macbook and my gf's laptop it redirects to the 404 error page.
I've tried clearing the cache upon doing some reading and saw some post about deleting the .hta access file but I am confused as to how files on my ftp is working on my desktop but not for my laptop.
Any help is appreciated! Thank you for taking the time to read!
As it turns out I had a plugin conflict that changes my url dashboard slug for security purposes. A different developer created this website and had this plugin installed and it took me longer than I care to admit to notice this.
Can someone please help. My customer has a Wordpress site built using Woocommerce. Recently Wordpress updated and my customer updated his plugin also which caused the whole thing to crash (500 error). I have logged in via FTP and disabled the plugins so the basic site is back up. I have also gone into the plugins and tested them and found only one is crashing the site and that is the WooCommerce.php itself. I have tried rolling back and reinstalling but it continues to crash. WP is version 4.9.8-en_GB. WooCommerce.php version is now 3.4.4 - both the latest. Neither myself or the customer are hugely experienced in this type of site. Oh and the stinger is while he did set up a backup plugin - the thing never completed a back up in the year or so it ran! Help..... we are at a loss.
I have setup the AMP plugin in WordPress but while going to see the AMP pages (Appearence->AMP), I saw an error "Non-existent changeset UUID".
Also there is message in console says,
"Failed to execute 'postMessage' on 'DOMWindow': The target origin provided ('https://test.com') does not match the recipient window's origin ('https://test.ve.staging.wpengine.com')."
Please help me to resolved it out.
I've recently taken over administration of a website that has historically been ... poorly managed, and upon trying to use WordPress' built in theme customizer, I was greeted with the same message: "Non-existent changeset UUID.", although I didn't get any related messages in the console.
Apparently my issue was caused by the fact that one of the people who set up the site to begin with had decided to put the public site at www.example.com and the WordPress admin pages at example.com/__wp.
If this is your issue, you basically have two options.
Make sure to log in at both domains.
This may be a little difficult since WordPress' login page is part of the admin portion of the site and thus only logs you in to the admin portion of the site, however this proved to be a good temporary solution for me as there was a plugin installed which added a login widget on the public portion of the site.
Change the WordPress Address to be on the same domain as your Site Address.
The Option appears under Settings > General, but in my case I couldn't change the WordPress Address setting there and had to go into the WordPress database in our company's MySQL server.
After dealing with the above issues, I discovered that this issue had also caused a bunch of resources to be incorrectly loaded from example.com that should have been loading from www.example.com, as well as a number of leftovers from the site's development that were causing some resources not to load because the database thought they were at localhost.
With the help of another Stack Overflow answer I found a Database Search and Replace Script in PHP by interconnect/it (also available on GitHub) which allowed me to repair the mess previous people had made of the website without making a new mess with incorrectly serialized data, or all of the work of manually, correctly serializing the data I needed to change.
I’m using the latest version of Wordpress (4.7.4).
I have something very weird going on in my Dashboard. Not sure when this started.
Can’t say for sure it started with the latest version of Wordpress or not.
My Dashboard became completely useless.
It’s like it’s showing me a flashback of a Dashboard from a few days or hours ago:
Comments I’ve deleted in the Dashboard (hitting “trash”) are suddenly back there, awaiting my moderation.
Plugins I’ve deactivated or even deleted are all back there and according to Dashboard still running (while in my FTP folder they’re certainly gone).
The plugin page cannot be trusted anymore as it shows some plugins are activated that aren’t and vice versa. I have to check on my actual website to confirm which ones are running.
Updates aren’t shown correctly. Once I’ve updated a plugin, a few minutes later it shows me again that there’s a new update.
As you can tell it’s all pretty much the same phenomenon.
It’s as if I’m seeing an older version of my Dashboard.
Not sure what else is broken.
The only other thing I noticed is that even on my actual blog I still see a comment. Blog post says “1 comment”, but the actual comment doesn’t show up.
At first, this all sounds like a “cache problem”.
But I’ve already turned off all caching:
No caching plugin installed
Turned off server caching via htaccess
Disabled leverage browser caching
Emptied my own browser cache
Other things I tested:
Turn off all plugins.
Switch to the standard Wordpress theme “Twenty Twelve”
I tried WP_DEBUG, but nothing related shows up.
I researched the internet, but nobody has described a similar problem, so I suppose this is not a common Wordpress issue.
The issue remains.
Unfortunately I’m not a developer and don’t know too much about the Wordpress codex etc.
But to me it sounds that the mistake is definitely not in the plugin or theme folder.
The problem is that I’ve reached the point where I really cannot turn off plugins via Dashboard properly anymore. It’s so annyoing!
My questions are:
Is it safe to assume that this is related to the Wordpress core
files?
What files exactly are in “charge of” the Dashboard?
Should I just try to re-download the newest Wordpress version and replace a few files (if so which ones)?
Should I do a clean Wordpress re-install or would that be too drastic?
Any other suggestions?
EDIT:
Additionally I tried now:
I manually downloaded the newest version of Wordpress and did just as
described on the Wordpress.org website. I manually replaced wp-admin,
wp-include folders and all root files. The issue remains...
The way my Dashboard is right now, I really can’t use it.
Please advice!
I contacted my host service again.
They just gave me the same line to insert into my .htaccess file and I told them I already tried it and it didn't work.
I then showed them my .htaccess file and they deleted the whole part that concerned their server caching.
Now server caching is completely off and everything works again.
Still not sure why this previously never caused issues.
In the end, it had nothing to do with Wordpress.
I hope this answer will help people who run into similar problems.
