To minimize the brutal attacks of WP sites is to change the default wp-admin
folder to something else. 
The safest way to do this is via the WP plugin:

autoupdates are VERY regular, and they have seemed to have solved the

2 years ago. Most of the plugs one had to install are now included.
Multi-media works great, much html5, some themes are Bootstrap based.
the editor rocks a lot better now. Even the default theme (2017) looks
decent if you're in a hurry. And you know how depressing the old default
themes were.

Have you checked out the all - livecode web framework?

I can tell you #1 way to protect your site, is to change the wp-admin to
something else. it cut our attacks by 99%.

I plan on going over WP for the second webinar on WP REST API. Richard is
correct, WP is only as good as your setup.

But WP with the LiveCode WP REST API is a great solution. Take a look.

This is sooo true with Wordpress. So many hackbots out there going at every wp 
site they can find to punch at all known security holes (hosting companies and 
individuals don't always keep up wp security patches). Folks think hackers 
won't care about my puny site, but usually they are looking to get onto 
servers... A couple friends have been wp designers/developers for a long time 
and spend a lot of time and money on client's wp security issues.

Cheers,

I would toss in another vote for Rapidweaver. 

It is frequently included in bundles on sites like StackSocial and
Bundlehunt, and goes on sale occasionally... so unless you need it
immediately, you can get it cheap if you give it some time.

To get the most out of Rapidweaver, I highly recommend you get Stacks which
is a third party plugin that costs extra, and of course the stacks can cost
money as well.

The extra costs for stacks can add up, but there are so many great options.
Again, if you've got patience, you can find great bundle deals. Doobox has a
great selection, and they frequently offer very cheap bundles.

Any sufficiently popular system will be *targeted* by hackers.  The 
question is: how many result in a successful exploit?


Aiming for a target and actually hitting it are usually very different 
metrics.


I subscribe to a few security newsletters (I've found O'Reilly's 
particularly worthwhile), and CVEs against WP seem reasonably rare the 
days, with quickly deployed updates to counter them.  I see CVEs against 
every OS far more regularly.  While there was a spate of PHP issues just 
after the turn of the century, in recent years we don't even see much 
there, probably far fewer than for JavaScript which affects many more 
people (every web browser).


Popularity may guide hacks, but with WP it's also a very strong plus: 
the ecosystem of plugins and themes is vast.  And even on the security 
side, its popularity is useful by providing more eyeballs reviewing and 
fixing code.


Overall, I'd say WP is no less safe than just about any alternative, 
provided you do the basic stuff any system requires:  automate security 
updates, use only the latest release version, use strong and unique 
passwords, always use HTTPS (Let's Encypt now makes that both free and 
automatable), etc.


Ass we've seen with most exploits, those involving WP sites were usually 
running outdated versions, or had weak passwords, or some other 
easily-avoidable weakness unrelated to the system itself.

Re: [OT] Website Design Apps-Mac

2016-10-17 Thread Keith Clarke
Wordpress started as a blogging platform but support for regular pages is very 
good, as is it’s forums, should you get stuck. There are a fair few sites in 
the Wordpress showcase that illustrate its breadth and depth 
https://wordpress.org/showcase/ 

It does need a database, but a lot of hosting providers use automated tools to 
enable Wordpress to be installed & configured with a few clicks. Indeed, if you 
have an on-rev account, you can add Wordpress to your primary on-rev domain or 
any addon domains using softaculous from C-Panel.

BTW if you want to take a more DIY approach, I use Coda when hand-made pages 
are required https://panic.com/coda/ 
Good luck with your quest.
Best,
Keith..

Coffeecup Software also has some excellent tools.

Freeway is oriented more to graphic designers and can be a little

Hi,

i can recommend RapidWeaver from Realmac Software 
(https://www.realmacsoftware.com/rapidweaver/ 
)
There´s even a trial version available for download.

There are a lot of free and paid 3rd party extensions, themes and stacks* 
available for RW.

*to use stacks you will need to purchase the Stacks plugin from YourHead 
(http://yourhead.com ).
There´s also a trial version available.

I´ve created quite a lot of sites with it. I can send you the url of some sites 
i´ve created. So you can see what can be done with it.
Send me a private mail if you are interested. I do not want to post them to the
