SECURING YOU WORDPRESS Use strong passwords: Your password should contain at least a combination of one capital letter, number, and special character, eg. R0ad*#pAssw0rd7*? Prevent directory browsing on your server: All you have to do is open the ‘.htaccess’ file in the directory you installed WordPress and add ‘Options -Indexes‘ (without the quotes). Prevent admin username enumeration: Username enumeration is a process of determining the usernames on your website. To prevent hackers from knowing this, add the following again to your .htaccess file : RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} author=d RewriteRule ^/? [L,R=301] Disable file editing inside WordPress: Open your wp-config.php file and add this – define(‘DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT’, true); line above the //comment that says don’t edit beyond this point. Set the right file/folder permissions: When you log in to your web host via ftp or cPanel, make sure the file permission for the following are set accordingly Folders : 755 Files : 644 Wp-config.php file : 444 Hide your WordPress version: Add the following line to your functions.php file in your theme remove_action (‘wp_head’, ‘wp_generator’); YOU CAN ALSO USE ANY OF THIS PLUGINS if above is too hard iThemes Security (formerly Better WP security) www.wordpress.org/plugins/better-wp-security/ Wordfence (I use this personally, also prevents brute force attacks) www.wordpress.org/plugins/wordfence/ Rublon (for two factor authentication) www.wordpress.org/plugins/rublon/ Source: @obidisocial 1 Like |

How to install it. bbPress is available as a WordPress plugin. You can install it like you would install any other WordPress plugin.

Creating a Forum with bbPress in WordPress Once installed, bbPress adds Forums, Topics and Replies menu items in your WordPress admin. Click on Forum » New Forum. This will take you to a screen similar to WordPress post edit area. Provide a title for your forum and enter a little description of it. Then press the publish button. |

Displaying bbPress Forum in the Front End of WordPress Now that you have created a few forums, it is time to display those forums on the front end of your WordPress website. Create a new WordPress page. Give this page a title, like Forum, Community, Support Forums, etc. Paste the following shortcode in your page: [bbp-forum-index] Turn off comments and trackbacks on this page and then publish it. Go to Appearance » Menus and add this page to your navigation menu. Now when a user clicks on this page, it will show your main forum index. Integrating bbPress with your WordPress Theme In most cases, you would probably want to open your forum for new registrations. To do that you need to open your website for registrations. Go to Settings » General, check the box next to “Any one can register” to allow registrations on your website. Now that your website is open for registration, the first thing that your forum participants would look for is a registration page. To create this simply create a WordPress page, and give it a title, e.g. Register. Add shortcode [bbp-register] and publish the page. Another page your users would need is the lost password recovery page. Create another WordPress page, give it a title e.g. Lost Password. Add this shortcode to the page [bbp-lost-pass] and publish the page. bbPress comes with a handful of widgets. Go to Appearance » Widgets to check those widgets. The most important widget that you would need is the (bbPress) Login Widget. Drag and drop Login Widget to your sidebar or any other widget area. Enter the URI(s) for the registration and lost password pages and save the widget. |

Managing bbPress Forum Settings Unlike other popular forum software, bbPress has a very simplified configuration page. To manage settings for your bbPress forums, go to Settings » Forums. This is the bbPress settings page from where you can control several aspects of your forum The first option you would see on Forums Settings page is “Disallow editing after”. Default option for this setting is 5 minutes. This setting allows Forum participants to edit their posts after publishing. After this time they will no longer be able to edit their posts. However, a forum Keymaster or Moderator can over ride this setting. The second option “Throttle posting every” 10 seconds is basically a forum flood protection measure. It allows you to control after how much time a new post should appear on the forum. On the settings page you can configure forum and topic slug as well as the number of topics and posts to appear per page. You can also allow users to subscribe to topics or add topics as favorites. |
Re: How To Be A Successful Web-developer by Nobody: 11:09am On Apr 27, 2015 |
User Roles in bbPress bbPress comes with five pre-defined roles, each with different capabilities. 1. Keymaster – The website owner or the WordPress administrator is automatically assigned the Keymaster role when they install bbPress. A Keymaster can delete and create forums, can create, edit, delete all posts, topics, forums. 2. Moderators – Users with moderator user role have access to moderation tools, which they can use to moderate forums, topics, and posts. 3. Participants – This is the default user role, participants can create and edit their own topics and posts, they can favorite and subscribe to topics. 4. Spectators – Spectators have a read only access to public forums, topics and posts. 5. Blocked – When a user is blocked all their capabilities are blocked. They can still read publicly viewable topics and posts, but can not participate in the forums. |
