In reply to: syntax error on default-widgets.php fileHello it’s Vik79 checking in..
I posted couple of days ago, about the problem with word press installation. I followed exactly what i wrote above and it worked!
Had to completely wipe off everything related to wordpress and plugins from my computer and the server to be 100% sure that no trace of the malicious code is left. Then re-uploaded everything back. I even figured out the ioncube loader install on 1and1.
Fingers crossed everything looks good now.
I would like to mention here that this was a new domain, so i didn’t had to backup or do any of the extra effort so what i have done may not be relevant to existing sites with content.
Thanks to Vinz/moebius77 for assistance.
Good luck to you all!
Peace to you and yours,
Vik

I would have felt really outraged if this were to happen to my established websites. I am glad that you know what you are doing ..hopefully you will be back up and running soon.
Luckily for me, I usually do direct linking and never had an established website of my own. I did registered a few domains on 1and1 to start a couple of niche sites.
Ok so I am going to take following steps to hopefully fix the damage:-
1. Delete wordpress folder from my computer
2. Delete wordpress folder from my server
3. Erase my ftp details and change my 1and1 login information.
4. Upload fresh copy of wordpress.
5. Try to get the Ioncube loader going (hopefully i will get it this time)
6. Delete all my plugins from my PC, download them fresh and upload em.If you think of anything else I should do pls lemme know. I am in Melbourne Australia and it’s getting late up here.. so i will wait for the fresh install till tomorrow.
Again, thx for your assistance.. knowing that there is not a lot of info about this problem you have really done a good service to whoever happens to visit this page!
Cheers,
Vik

In reply to: syntax error on default-widgets.php fileHi Vinz,
I have been getting the same error for the last 3 days and been searching on Google and finally found your post. Looks like this is a relatively new problem. I am still getting the same error so i need your help!
Just a little earlier (before finding your post) i delete all files from my web-server and uploaded the word press back. I was able to enter my db details and on the next step got the same error again. I followed your instruction and deleted WP-Content folder hoping this would allow me to login but I am still getting the same error?
I am with 1and1.com shared hosting and thought that i was having problems configuring ioncube loader but looks like i gotta get rid of the malicious code first.
Please reply back and help me
Vik
