[tonz] Good suggestion [chrisbergr]. An addition might be webmention (I at least send and receive mentions on my own posts). What I am thinking of is having a graph alongside a post that shows internal links at 2 steps, so the stuff linked to the stuff linked to the post. It is a distance where associations happen

beko https://beko.famkos.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/gnome-shell-screenshot-IPLIS0.png GWG to my rescue :D This is how a photo note looks like now with the recent updates of post-kinds resulting in bridgy not syndicating the content. The property is part of the plugin if I know this correctly.

[chrisbergr] I hope you all have good security measures in place. In the last 2 months, many of my clients' wordpress installations have had to fight off extreme attacks. Worst of all, some kind of vulnerability has resulted in code in admin-ajax.php that sends error messages to a telegram chat.

#
[chrisbergr] ACF & Defender Pro. But Defender came after problems occured on some pages...

#
[chrisbergr] This is the bad code I've got: https://gist.github.com/chrisbergr/4047128b6fd0cb81d755ddba3dcbac1d

#
[chrisbergr] also in includes/user.php.. So I guess after log in, they have all the credentials...

#
[chrisbergr] yep.

#
[chrisbergr] I hate this kind of problems. Waste of time. But yes, I can handle it. My intention was to give you guys just a friendly reminder, that there is always this threat. And plugins like Defender or Wordfence are important (imo)

#
[chrisbergr] @beko It's not just firewalling. It's also maleware scanning, comparing all files with their repositories, getting automatic reports about firewall, maleware and audit logging and a lot of other stuff.

#
[chrisbergr] But I understand not being a fan of it 🙂

#
beko I'd be happy not displaying it too. There is never anything legit in that title when uploading via micropub. Removed a title manually for testing. It doesn't show up in the microformats any more as well so this is what I want. I found a filter on wp_insert_attachment_data that would probably do the trick:

#
beko https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/211865/prevent-wordpress-from-adding-image-title-automatically - could expand to a filename matcher and ommit only when it matches the filename

[chrisbergr] This is basically a bad thing from WordPress. The title attribute is not important for images at all. Instead, they should fill the Alt attribute by default. Anyway, this channel is not the right place to complain about it.

#
[chrisbergr] I meant that in general. If you are not careful, just upload your image and embed it in the content, you will have a title attribute (this yellow tooltip) but no alt, wich means invalid HTML.

#
[chrisbergr] doing a11y stuff not only makes you a better human, but also gives you an SEO boost without extra effort.

[tw2113_Slack_] do it for future beko when you may not have the best eyesight or something tragic happens that affects your ability to function as a whole
