# [Plugin: WordPress Exploit Scanner] Interpreting results?

 * This plugin found two severe problems in my wordpress installation:
 * wp_head() call missing
    wp_footer() call missing
 * The bad patterns are these:
 * /(wp_head)+\s?\(\)/msiU
    /(wp_footer)+\s?\(\)/msiU
 * I’m glad to have found them, but I don’t understand where these calls are so 
   I can fix them. Would they be in php files, or served by the database? The results
   page says only that they’re in the main wordpress directory. Can anyone help?
   Thanks.
