  • @phenomlab i think i managed to migrate the site, but when i visit a few random pages like domain.com/dasfdsfds it is supposed to show WordPress 404 instead Plesk is showing their own 500 page… not sure about this. for now, i am making changes to a few other manual scripts like updating db passwords and paths tomorrow i will keep you posted.

    thanks for the quick response 🙂

    @Hari you probably need to delete the custom 500, 404, and index HTML pages supplied by Plesk.

    @phenomlab how can whitelist list such errors? these are apache access issues it think when i disable mod security it is working as expected

    @Hari you’d have to record the ID of the specific rule that triggers the error in WordPress, then delete that specific rule.

    Mod Security is great, but will easily become the worst enemy you can imagine in a very short space of time.

    @Hari actually earlier error was DB password issue, i forgot to update the new DB password in a custom theme file.

    and in plesk we should always use localhost:port number if we just use localhost sometimes it wont connect (i am assuming this)

    @Hari depends on the format of the config file, but in most cases, you only need localhost:port if you are using a custom port.

    No, I wouldn’t recommend it. A better solution would be to use a mod security template that is designed for WordPress rather than the generic one.

    @phenomlab i am thinking to enable MEME what do you say? is it necessary? is it a CSS file library?

    @Hari you’ll also get that error if you are attempting to include a CSS file that is improperly formatted. What is it you’re trying to include ?

  • @phenomlab yes yes 😄

    @Hari i just selected WordPress and moved to de activate zone… this is how we need to choose the WordPress template for ModSecurity?

    @Panda said in Spam spam spam: ok, yes Ive seen the queue, it shows IP, but doesnt have a field for comments from registrant. It’s not designed for that. It merely serves as a gateway between posts appearing on your form or not. @Panda said in Spam spam spam: It would be better if nodebb had this plugin included in ACP list, as not only then do you know its approved and should work, but many people cant or dont want to use CLI on the server That’s a question for the NodeBB devs but in all honesty you can’t not use the CLI when installing nodebb so to be this isn’t a big deal.

    @phenomlab issue was with high traffic spikes and the website used to get crashed. API is managed by others, its built in such a way they built it in such un protected way. we would be moving to nodejs own APIs soon to address all these issues. thought of solving it with help of you and a friend of mine is helping me build a new site with APIs. thanks

    @Hari the real issue here is that I don’t think it can be used as a theme for WordPress because of the dependencies it clearly has, including its own Web server. My view here is that this is designed to be a complete development environment outside of the WordPress core.
