Searching on the forum

[brett]

I have found that the search functionality within this forum is not too good at returning all the results. It's a little bit inconsistent.

Solution: use Google! Do a site search and then include your keywords. For example to find posts with "hubpages" in them type the following into google

site:webtrafficandmarketing.com hubpages

Hope that helps

Hi,

Just installed a new WP (using Fantastico).
It's been a while since I've done an install, and I was surprised to see that the wp-config file had already been "salted".

I went to - https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt/
to replace them, and found that the new strings were shorter.
Further examination, found that the lines that were there originally all contained the domain name.

Is it necessary now for those lines to have the domain?
Are the install settings already unique?
And finally, should I leave them as is?

Thanks!

What do you mean by "salted"?

There are several lines in your wp-config file where you can add your own (meaningless) string of characters. This is for security purposes. It's called "salting". I have no idea why.

I find the issue of search for a technical issue very frustrating..I have not been able to use video traffic plugin for over 12 months..I gave up trying..and I use plugins everyday ..the issue is getting the plugin to recognize the backup files with 766 permission..it just wont do it and has not done it for past 12 months..very frustrating..I thought to give it one more try ..nope still doesnt work. Furthermore having to search forums for a vendor support takes a lot of my time.

I suggest you post a new thread detailing some of your issues in the Video Traffic Genius part of the forum.

This will attract the attention of the developer of the plugin (John R), and he will be able to assist you. I don't think he works during the weekends though.
