In reply to: Over 1,000 hits against wp-login.php yesterday?Sorry about that cryptic link yesterday. I wasn’t thinking.
If anyone has seen unusual activity related to “Ian Duggin” impacting their site, here’s a link to the Google Analytics support forum. From there, search on “Ian Duggin” for the thread about this activity impacting WP sites.
Same domain as yesterday, it’s just more clearly a safe link.

In reply to: Over 1,000 hits against wp-login.php yesterday?I will do as you suggest.
I should say that this activity is probably related to a larger series of attacks that I, and a number of WP users, have identified, originating (in part) from a user (so called) Ian Duggin, originating in Portland OR.
If you (or any readers of this post) are interested, the thread is :

In reply to: Another permissions questionCan’t thank you enough for the guidance. I’ll review the reference you indicate. It looks like it will do the trick. And in the end, it’s an easy enough bit of housekeeping to check the permissions after an editing session.
All best,

In reply to: Another permissions questionThanks for the reply! I appreciate your expertise.
I’m using the built in WordPress editor. I log onto my site’s subdirectory through wp-admin and use all the tools available through that interface. I purchased a theme, and so this specific edit of the skin is made through the admin portal provided by that theme.
My site was previously just a collection of PhP and CSS files, requiring me to FTP the files back and forth from my server and doing all the editing on my workstation. So I believe I understand the distinction you’re making.
The only time I’m having to use my FTP client is to change the permissions.
I hope this clarifies.
Thanks again!

In reply to: Running new theme in test folderThis note can be closed. I went ahead and dropped a fresh install in off the root domain, and I’m up and running.

In reply to: Running new theme in test folderI should add that the domain that will contain the new website is a subdomain.
If it makes a difference, the new test folder can be located either underneath the subdomain folder on my webhost (but not directly underneath the folder that currently contains an install of WP), or it can be in a separate folder under my primary domain, completely unrelated to my subdomain.
