WA provides the best security for your websites than you could ever imagine or find anywhere else on the entire internet. Plus we have the most awesome technical support team who can fix just about anything that goes wrong with a site.

MAKING LIFE EASIER

However, a lot of us make life difficult for ourselves by adding plugins and widgets on that come from outside WA. We are, therefore, guilty of compromising our sites through our actions.

COME ON GET TO THE POINT!

Ok. What I have learned, and been reminded of, by a good friend here at WA, 777getgoing (Evelyn) is that these types of problems can help others to avoid these pitfalls. It does not matter how bad, upsetting and a pain in the you know what. Problems that are solved are a learning curve and worth sharing with others. :).

The message here is to just be careful what you add on your sites.

I learned this lesson the hard way and what follows are the methods for correcting these problems.

Hey Lis, I agree that you shouldn't panic, there is a solution to this awful experience. You handled it like a champ. I'm very proud of you. That was so sweet that you mentioned me. Great training! :)

Hi Evelyn,

Thank you so much. You were my inspiration for writing this training. You reminded me that others may be going through the same problem and may quit if they do not find an instant solution.

So I thank you for saying the right thing at the right time.

So as you see you needed a mention :)

I would have been heartbroken if you quit. You are so smart and a inspiration to us all. You know the man above works in mysterious ways. This is your home and he don't want to see you leaving. :) Working through it and helping others is a much better alternative. Thanks to you, just like you said, we can pass on the good info you provided Lis.

That is so sweet of you :). I am determined not to let hackers get the better of me. Plus I have something they don't have... A very stubborn streak, thanks to my mum and of course friends like you and the whole of WA. What more could a girl ask for in her arsenal :))

Don't worry, I am here to stay :D

Thank you, Stephanie. There was just so much information to go through and I know this is a little bit sparse. Lol.

This link really helps :)

PS: Congratulations on becoming an Ambassador.

Hi Robert,

Thank you. If this helps just one person solve the same problem quicker than I did then I will be very happy.

Best wishes.

Thanks for sharing this information. So is everything back to normal now on your site?

Hi Tanja,

Yes, it is now. It took some time and a lot of learning, but everything is now good. I can now continue with the tutorials and work on creating posts again which this problem has prevented me from doing.

Thank you for asking.

Good for you for sticking with it. I bet many people would have just thrown in the towel. I know that thought would have crossed my mind if I were in the same situation.

I must admit that I felt like that at times but I have put so much work into my site and I believe in my niche so that is what kept me going. It is a great relief to have sorted out the problem and to be able to get back to building up my business again.

I may have lost a bit of revenue and customers, but I am confident that I will soon be back up to speed.

Also, WA provides such great inspiration that it is difficult to give up. Lol :)
