Rulz & Why / Rule #1 - No Porn Sites
Last post by Big Kahuna - March 07, 2021, 01:54:10 PMWe're not Scoutmasters, but those sites get the server in hot water with search engines, use an excessive amount or resources that hurt others on the server, and an increased liability we don't want. Any account which we are able to verify a complaint of hardcore existing - will be immediately terminated without refund.

WordPress Plugins / Plugin Suggestion - Site Kit b...
Last post by Big Kahuna - March 07, 2021, 01:31:36 PMThis plug in is the easiest way to add Recaptcha to your WordPress - which deters Robots. It also sets you up with Analytics and Adsense. You can do the same manually back and forth between Google's Webmaster Tools and other plugins - but this makes it fast and easy. See the details in your add plugins section on you WordPress.

WordPress Plugins / Plugin Suggestion - Wordfence ...
Last post by Big Kahuna - March 07, 2021, 01:25:34 PMThis is the single most important plugin to install, activate and configure - if you have a WordPress site.
It does a lot of things, the most important of which are:
Limits the number of failed logins (default 20 - but you set) into you member's account and locks out (default 4-hours but you set) for that ip address. Hackers spend a lot of time trying to vandalize an account. Be sure to White list yourvIP address.
Is an anti-virus for your account. Keeps you (or a hacker) from uploading a file with a virus into your Word Press account.
Malware scanner/repair
If you have a WordPress running in your account - it's the firewall security plugin I suggest. The full details are available in your add plugins area. They push you to buy their Premium version for more features, but I've never felt the to.

Forums / XMB - Forum
Last post by Big Kahuna - March 07, 2021, 12:32:00 PMExample hosted in BKH is https://www.daveschultz.com/forum/
Of the free ones, I prefer this one to SMF, by a slight margin. Both are actually very good - but I like the fact your can add a menu item (like a like to another of your sites) in the navbar without hardcoding. The problem with hardcoding is that upgrades overwrite it if the file modified is replaced with new in the upgrade.
A new feature at BKH is the addition of Installatron in your account's Cpanel. This allows you to easily install any of over 50 applications without having to create databases, users, FTP the files to your account on the server and running the setup. It does all of that for you. Additionally, it maintains upgrades for many of those applications.
On Installatron, there are about 10 forums you can install. If you look at the dates of the last version, you will see that most aren't supported anymore. I'd avoid those and stick with either XMB or SMF.
If you want a forum, but just don't want to deal with the installation, configuration, and category/forum structure - I can quickly do any or all of that for you. Plan out your, Category names and descriptions, forums that are under each category (names and Descriptions) and submit a Support Ticket https://www.bigkahunahosting.com/support/ with that information, and I'll give you a quote. That said - give it a try first, we can always delete it if you were to give up and want a pro set it up.

BHK excels at installation and upgrading of Vbulletin, because we don't throttle resources like the discount servers do. If you've ever tried to install vbulletin on Go Daddy, you've most likely also contemplated suicide too while installing. We let our accounts utilize all available server resources to get the job done quickly.
