Good afternoon,
My website “hacking.com” is being a hacker. Whenever you activate your theme which is what you have been using already a year, it opens fraudulent pages.
Activate the theme -> clear cookies and cache -> F5 in the site and opens fraudulent page.
Whenever active wordpress themes Twenty Seventeen nothing happens.
Already download the new theme (still had the Newspaper6) Newspaper 8 but the same happens.
Can you help me?
Thank you.

P.S. My website “hacking.com” is being a hacker.
The situation is somewhat curious, isn’t it?

Sorry, I do not know what happened. My site is “correiodoporto.pt”

Thnks
But this only happens when you activate your theme. It’s annoying to buy a theme, and that’s only happening with yours.
I already deleted the Newspaper6 and inserted the new version Newspaper 8. I deleted plugins and everything.
I installed Wordfence. I deleted all files from the server and reinstalled wordpress, install themes etc.
It only happens when you activate yours. I’m getting frustrated with this because I have the website out of the air for two days
So, did you do the things mentioned in my post?
Did you clean up your dbase already — this is mandatory if you got hacked, including changing passwords, etc.
If you don’t clean the infection from your dbase, then whenever you turn on the theme, this enables the data already in your dbase from getting hacked, it looks like.
This infection can happen with a wide variety of themes using a certain ‘hook’ in the data, as outlined in the articles linked to in my security post.
Simply reinstalling WP, all plugins, theme, etc., won’t be enough —
YOU MUST
a) clean your dbase
b) reinstall wordpress
c) reinstall plugins
d) check htaccess and wp-config.php
e) CHANGE ALL YOUR PASSWORDS
f) check dbase again
This is only way to be safe.
Make sure you are only installing latest version of theme from TF, not a pirate version, old version, friend version, etc.
I ran the site on Sucuri Site Check did not detect a virus. In Total Virus also did not detect anything.
I ran that script in Sql. Says that 0 rows have been affected.
I do not know if I’m doing this correctly.
Hi,
The theme is fully tested and works properly. It does not contain any malware or redirects to other websites. Only use the theme downloaded from themeforest not from other sources, like Chris mentioned. If you checked the database with the security solutions provided by Chris, install the theme again and see if the problem is still happening

Remove all other plugins except the ones that come with the theme, in the theme package. Do not use any custom code in the theme panel or directly in the theme files. Do not activate any child theme you might have.
Thanks
I was able to solve the problem I came back to the site a month ago. I could not do it any other way. Probably little of my knowledge, but no problem.
Now the site already worked I passed the new update of the theme I activated the license everything ok. But now it says that you need to activate the visual composer. Not included yet?
thank you

Hi,
The Visual composer plugin is included in the theme package. You do not have to activate this plugin. Please disregard any activation messages, Visual composer can be used without any problems
