My site got hacked and cloned multiple times. Now if i post anything its get updated on all cloned sites. Can i use some code in such a way that if a user visits a cloned site, he is redirected to original one. Any modification in theme or htaccess file which could do the job. Any help would be
appreciated.
I am using WordPress on shared hosting. My site is dlsoftfree.com and mirror sites are
zoodsabt.com
Thanks
How do you know it was a hacker and not a web crawling ?
Try a Javascript code in the middle of your article.
<script>
//replace 'example.com' for your domain
if(! /^http[s]?:\/\/example.com\//.test(window.location.href)){
var url = window.location.href.replace(/^http[s]?:\/\/([^:\/\s]+)(\w+)+\//, "http://example.com/");
window.location.replace(url);
}
</script>
there is most probable a shell on the server a php file which they can go to via the browser which will give them access to any file on your server change your ftp info, your hosting login info, check all your files for different files which are not ment to be there.Your site is also linked to another when you click the posts it forwards you to another website.

I'm a new beginner to Joomla. I'm trying to build a website with a sub domain of joomla (free sub domain). After successfully setting up and installing the database plus other components according to several beginners' tutorials, where I successfully upload several templates, I try to test the link of my website but all I get is this error message:
The requested page can't be found.
An error has occurred while processing your request.
You may not be able to visit this page because of:
an out-of-date bookmark/favourite
a mistyped address
a search engine that has an out-of-date listing for this site

If difficulties persist, please contact the System Administrator of this site and report the error below.
404 Article not found
How can I really go about solving this issue because after intensive research I have found out that this error message is very common for beginners when it comes to Joomla.
Some Suggestions:
SEF URLS
Try using a non-SEF URL to access an article to see if that works.
For example, check in Content -> Articles for a valid published article ID (the article IDs are in the last column at the right hand side of the page) and access the page using a URL like this:
http://[your-domain-name].com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=xx
where xx is the article ID.
If this works, then your problem has something to do with SEF URLs or URL Rewriting.
You can temporarily disable SEF URLs and URL Rewriting in the Global Configuration.
.htaccess
A badly configured .htaccess file could cause this issue.
Assuming the .htaccess file exists in the root folder of your website (e.g. in the /public_html folder) then try copying .htaccess to .htaccess.old as a backup and reset the .htaccess file to the default settings by copying htaccess.txt to .htaccess.
htaccess.txt should also be found in the root folder of your website as part of a normal Joomla install.
Test whether this fixes the issue.
Third Party Extensions
Try disabling any SEF related third party extensions.
I'm currently trying to upload a html+css page to my hosting service (1&1 internet).
Unfortunately, I have very little experience in that; and would like to ask this question:
How is it possible to update the existing homepage on a site that already has been uploaded to the web?
I'm using WebspaceExplorer. Now, when I enter it, (Hosting section) there are a lot of folders and files with a few options like download, delete and so on.
I can't seem to find out how to make the program understand which one should be the homepage. This is because I see that the page I uploaded is online and accessible, but is not the first page the user sees! How can I change it?
It may be confusing because of the poor description so here is the url of both:
velten-berlin.org (current Homepage)
velten-berlin.org/Upload (desired homepage)
I have recently moved my joomla site to another hosting. But now the site doesn't work. Shows blank page. Though the administrator's page (/administrator) is shown and works correctly. Have any ideas for what reason it can be?
Remove the .htaccess altogether
clear the cache and tmp folders
make sure db name, login and password are correct in the configuration.php
make sure the server path (tmp and logs folders) are correct
if you still get an empty page, make sure you're looking at the right log file. Turn php error logging on or display them.
post some more details here...
This is my first post to this Forum, please forgive me if this has been answered elsewhere--I did search and was unable to find an answer to my particular problem, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am working on a WP site for a client who wants to upload images to new posts (who doesn't hey?). In setting up the site I have done the following:
1) Enabled File Upload by CHMOD default dir to 777.
2) Changed max file size.
3) Changed allowed filetypes to include necessary file types.
When I try to upload anything I get the following error:
“Bobst Expertfold 80 110 (Dec 2010).jpg” has failed to upload due to an error
The uploaded file could not be moved to /var/www/vhosts/glossopcartons.com/httpdocs/wp-content/uploads/2010/12.
The above error mentions 'glossopcartons.com', this WP site is actually sat on glossopcartons.co.uk. It's obvious that there is some kind of virtual host configuration going on and the image is trying to be uploaded to a folder on a different domain (glossopcartons.com instead of glossopcartons.co.uk).
I don't manage the hosting, I have just been assigned with the build. However, I have access to the plesk cpanel but I dont know what I need to do?
Does anyone know what is causing this problem? The site has actually been made live and this issue has been spotted after the launch(everything worked fine on the test server), and I am scratching my head trying to figure it out.
Is there something I can put in my wp-config.php or .htaccess file to tell WP to upload to a different location.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

First thing is 777 permisions are too loose and will get you hacked; they should be no more than 755. Hardening WordPress « WordPress Codex
For the difference in URLs: that sounds like a DNS or virtual host config, but try adding the full URL path in Settings>>Media Settings. Might not work.
Why are there sites at both domains? Why not domain forward glossopcartons.com to glossopcartons.co.uk?
Make sure PHP lets you upload files larger than what you are trying to upload.
Experienced the same problem on several old sites. This problem occurs sporadically and is not commonly occuring on other websites on the same server
Try going to your "Media Settings" page... do you see a "Store uploads in this folder" option with a long path to your uploads folder? If so... this is your problem... WordPress 3.5+ does not seem to require this long path, but more of a site relative path (which is great!)
Change your "Store uploads in this folder" to "wp-content/uploads"... when you "save settings" you should see that field disapear entirely, never to bother us again ;-)
This occured for me when my hosting provider changed the folder structure on the server making this long URL incorrect. Therefore WordPress could not find the "uploads" directory at all.
Hope that helps...
Here's some things you might want to check in case your still having problems...
Update to WordPress 3.5 +
Update all plugins
Check file permissions 755 on the uploads dir/
Check PHP version
I have installed drupal on my localmachine(ubuntu, Xampp), at localhost.
Path and Pathauto modules are active (a module to produce friendly URLs).
Migrating/Pushing my local install to the www.mysite.com
Exported SQL from phpMyadmin(localhost).
Made a new DB at live site (I think a different name from the localhost-DB does not create any problem).
Imported SQL into phpMyadmin, (mysite).
Changed the username-password-DBname in the sites/default/settings.php in drupal folder.
Now, uploaded the drupal folder and all its content into the /www of the "mysite.com".
Visited the URL www.mysite.com, site looks same as on my localhost, good.
But --
I made a tryPage on my
localhost/drupal, for which
pathauto(cleanURL) recommended the
URL "content/trypage" which i
explicitly changed to "trypage", so
that absolute link to the page is
"localhost/drupal/trypage" and not
"localhost/drupal/content/trypage".
Now When i click the trypage link on the mysite,
it open's it in-reference to my
localhost, my local-pages are
opened. That is, when I click
newpage on the mysite.com, the URL
requested is
"localhost/drupal/newpage" and not
"www.mysite.com/newpage".
Do you think it is coz of the SEO
friendly URL generation issue, the
Pathauto module.
Anyways how do i solve this
If I make my "localhost/drupal" to open from same URL (mysite.com), i dont know how
to do that exactly, i think by configuring
vhosts. But if i do that, then the URL
www.mysite.com where will it take
me, local or online.
Now If i add new modules, new content, new pages, and new books on my localhost site, and wish to update mysite.com, do i have to redo SQL export/import everytime, and use a software like rsync/sitecopy(), to upload the folders on the live site. How do i solve this.
This is an old question, but here are some thoughts.
Links generated by Drupal (e.g. menu links, links within the admin area, breadcrumbs, etc.) should always use the domain of the currently requested site. URLs within Drupal are handled by the "router", which stores all paths within the database in a relative format.
That said, unless you're specifying the site URL in settings.php (the $base_url variable) or are linking to pages using fully qualified URLs, this shouldn't be a problem. Linking to different nodes from other nodes can be handled with a variety of modules. Pathologic is a good choice, or Path Filter.
Moving Drupal sites from development to staging to production is still a common problem for which there is no definitive solution. This question was asked previously here.
