The So-called LIFE

While checking my site awhile ago, I noticed when clicking any links, I will be redirected to my error page since those links do not exist. Man, I’ve been hacked! And that kups added some malicious code to my permanent links. Good thing I noticed.

I checked on the themes that I created. I checked all the php pages but it’s not there. Then, I noticed the links are the only issue so I checked the settings on my Permalinks tab, and boom! It’s there! He changed my common settings to “Custom Structure” and edited the url.

Hmm.. I’m wondering how that kups was able to get those code inside my system. So to ensure my site’ security, I updated my Wordpress version and also my password (a very long password!).

I just received a comment that my page is getting antivirus alert, I wonder why. And I noticed my page load slowly. Hmm..

I’m not sure if it is the twitter script I added that’s causing this. So I made a test, I removed the twitter script to my page and it loads faster. I think it’s understandable since my page is getting the twitter content from another site (my twitter account). And the script has javascript which I’m sure the one causing my page to load slowly. But the virus alert.. I don’t think so.

Maybe, I need to do more testing. If the twitter is the problem, I might remove it from my site.

Yup, I’m a Twitter user now. I’ve been hearing this word for quite some time now but I’m not sure what it is. I heard it when watching television, NBA, etc. It’s everywhere now so might as well join them. hehe..

I have incorporated my twitter to my site. It’s at the top of my page with the talk Bubble image and twitter logo background. It shows my recent twitter. cool!

For the past two weeks, I’ve been busy in the office studying Magnolia (Java-based CMS). While the admin UI is impressive with all it’s Ajax goodies, creating a new template is cumbersome and not designer-friendly at all. But I’m still positive I can learn the templating. There’s just some issue on the installed software so I can’t fully figure it out. Next week, I’ll have all the help I can get with Kat and Carlos working at night.

At home, I’m busy also on designing a layout for some prospect clients. I’m glad, we’re able to close one deal. I’m hoping to get Marc Nelson also as my client. I’ve proposed two layouts, hope to get some feedback soon. I created Paula Taylor’s fan site so adding Marc would be really great.

I’m also updating the url of Paula’s fan club site. I thought changing the url will be easy but there are bunch of contents that need updating. The good thing here, I was able to figure out mySql. I learned to update the table using it’s UI. The only problem now is to move all the images to the new directory so the images on the site will show up. And change all the url on the content manually.

Next week, I think I’ll be more busy since I’ll start working with the new project. I’m glad I’m busy, having more project means more money. (recession ba kamo, ano yun?! hehe)
