In reply to: Hosting Account Suspended for High UsageUse the RENAME WP-LOGIN.PHP plugin instead and then just add this code to your site’s .htaccess file:
<Files "wp-login.php"> Order Allow,Deny deny from all </Files> <Files "xmlrpc.php"> Order Allow,Deny deny from all </Files>The botnets will be stopped in their tracks and hackers won’t know where to try to login manually.
Although the plugin suggests a new name for your login page, I suggest you change it to something else you can easily remember. That way anyone who knows about the plugin won’t be able to try to attack the default login page.
If you ever forget the page name then just delete the plugin and login to reinstall it.

In reply to: Embeding wordpress blog into a non-wordpress site.Without knowing anything about how you manage your static HTML code here are a couple of suggestions:
- Create a static page and use it to iframe your WordPress site
- Embed a widget on your static site that displays your WordPress RSS feed
As for the Web comic plugin, you may have to use a wrapper to get it to display properly in WordPress. That almost certainly means finding a plugin that allows you to do this. And that comes down to how the Web comic is distributed (i.e., is it in Flash?).

In reply to: You do not have sufficient permissions to access this pageTry clearing your browser history (cache and cookies). I sometimes encounter this error after making changes to a site and that usually resolves the problem for me (unless something else was changed).

In reply to: WordPress 3.9 Theme Search is CrapI tested your hypothesis on a “Plugin Lite” installation. My computer does not overheat, so I’ll accept that the plugins are creating the extra load (and some of the complaints in the query I linked to above also mention plugins).
Still, the issues for me in this discussion are:
1) The need to configure the ADD THEME dashboard to show my preferred page (Filters)
2) The need to improve the theme search itself so that it can actually find themes by name and not toss up a screen full of guessesForum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: WordPress 3.9 Theme Search is CrapWell, funny you should say that because apparently a lot of other people ARE upset.

Anyway, I’m going to assume there is no way to fix this. I’ll have to try to catch the next version in beta and lodge a ticket or something I guess.

In reply to: WordPress 3.9 Theme Search is CrapNo, I am talking about the computer I use to connect to the Web hosting accounts. The servers are doing fine. My computer is overheating when I try to search for themes.
So I log into a Website and switch to the Network dashboard and then click on ADD THEME. Immediately the “Featured” themes start loading and MY computer (not the Web server) begins overheating.
Having to click away from that immediately is annoying.
The search filter doesn’t find all the themes even when I type in their names. I am having to click on all the tag options that the theme designers specify on ww.wp.xz.cn so that I can at least browse a group of themes (again causing the computer to overheat).
If I am lucky I will find the theme that way.
Just to find candidates for evaluation, though, I have to run a search on ww.wp.xz.cn and look at the theme profile pages.
Once I have a new list of 3.9-compatible themes to work with I can start uploading them to the various sites that need new themes.
After I install a theme, though, I cannot get back to the Network dashboard in 1 click. I have to go up to the navigation bar/menu and get back to the Network dashboard and the themes page there.

In reply to: WordPress 3.9 Theme Search is CrapI admit that I am pretty steamed right now so yes I have missed a couple of obvious things. I am REALLY disappointed in this horrible UI design. Searching for themes should not be this hard.

In reply to: WordPress 3.9 Theme Search is Crap“It should default to Featured themes and there should never be more than about 8-10 of those.”
My mistake. It’s defaulting to displaying 8-10 “Featured Themes” and causing my computer to overheat.
It’s a pretty decent computer. It shouldn’t have to ask for more power like this.
So, basically, you don’t know of any way to change this behavior, right? I have given up on any actual useful capabilities in the search filters.

In reply to: WordPress 3.9 Theme Search is Crap“What’s the problem?”
THE PROBLEM: The dashboard defaults to loading “popular” themes, which causes my computer to overheat.
I want to disable that “functionality” by making the filter come up FIRST by default.
ON EDIT: And then I could point out that you can’t even search on a lot of the standard tags, like “Left Sidebar”. (SUBSEQUENT EDIT: Ok, I see the option…)
As I said: this is a total piece of crap.
