Hi!
unfortunately we got struck by the traffictrade malware earlier this summer. (Our own mistake due to a customzied 3 party ad system). However – we are up and running and everything is dandy. We are now on the latest Newspaper (8.1?) and all patched up. Got Wordfence premium running etc.

Then we get one critical warning from Wordfence about an “TD_008” content in wp_options. I also find this one occurence when searching in phpmyadmin. There is no findings of that in the Ad system of the Newspaper 8 theme – so I’m thinking this might be some old obsolete options setting from Newspaper 4 to 8? (yes I’m shamefull ^^)

Do I delete this line in “TD_008” or what to do?

Have a good one!

Hi,

I believe that is related to the previous newspaper 4 theme settings, in the database. You could make a backup first just to be safe and then remove it. It should not be any problem.

Thanks
