What it does
WP Sweeper is a shell script built to automate cleaning of hacked sites. It has functions to automatically replace the files for the WordPress core, plugins and themes with new versions from the WordPress.org repository.
Automate the recovery process for compromised WordPress installations. Replace infected files, scan for malware, and restore your site's security in minutes. Manual cleanup of hacked WordPress sites is time-consuming, error-prone, and often incomplete. WordPress malware removal requires specialized tools. Manually downloading and replacing WordPress core files, plugins, and themes is tedious and leaves room for human error when recovering from malware infections. Traditional WordPress cleanup methods can take hours or even days, leaving your site vulnerable and offline during the entire malware removal process. Malicious code can hide in unexpected places in your WordPress installation.…from wpsweeper.com

Talanoa▲343Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

History: Last year I had to replace the tire on my bike, and I was surprised how difficult it was to find a suitable new tire. There were a lot of numbers written on the casing, so I googled what they meant. In the end I was successful, but I didn't want to do the same work again for the next bike after I've forgotten the details. So I wrote this website. Technically, the web page is kept very simple, no frameworks, no templates, no website builder. It uses HTML5, CSS and JavaScript, and it privides a responsive layout for mobile usage. I'm happy to receive feedback. If you have tried the…
