Again, most of my clients websites running Newspaper have been hacked. I was able to get rid of some of the injected and infected code. Some sites I just can’t, although running Sucuri AND Wordfence!!!!
You have offered to check those websites yourself and help with the cleaning, please let me know, how I can send you the credentials on a secure channel…
Same is happening to us, MalCare Vulnerabilities Scanner detected tagDiv Composer plugin as an issue.
I’m afraid I have to confirm the hack on my site too… (Newspaper ver. 8.5.2) – what versions do you use?
What version of Newspaper do you use?
Old version of Newspaper have vulnerabilities. I got hacked and had to restore from backup and update to the latest 12.x
I’m using 12.6.1. and STILL can’t get rid off the hacks!!
You could give more details, as in what was hacked? what are the signs of being hacked? you know for us noobies.
There are many different files that can be infected! Try installing the plugins Sucuri and Wordfence, both will tell you if and what is hacked!!
