How to Fix the WP API Returning Invalid User Id Issue

We recently got a client support request for a fix regarding an issue they were constantly experiencing while trying to edit or publish a post on their WordPress news site.

The free.xjs.lol Spam Injection WordPress Malware Cleanup

A few days ago, we received a hack removal request for a WordPress website using both Malcare and WordFence; it kept getting hacked and injected with Japanese spam malware repeatedly.

Why changing your SEO plugin from Yoast SEO to The SEO Framework? The SEO Framework plugin has started to gain popularity. This is a plugin that “delivers results” as they boldly state and they also pride themselves in being the fastest SEO plugin.
