Scan: Free WP Themes for Malicious Code..!
WordPress is so popular because of the available free Themes & Plugins out there. Right? Yes, it’s true. But how many of you think about the security in download that free stuff? Nobody I guess. We have millions of free themes out there for download. We just click download and upload, but think twice before hitting upload.
Don’t trust the developer; there is always a possibility to inject some malicious code in those themes. That’s where this plugin helps you to scan those themes easily. Plugin called TAC will Do that for you.TAC stands for Theme Authenticity Checker.
TAC searches the source files of every installed theme for signs of malicious code. If such code is found, TAC displays the path to the theme File, the line number, and a small snippet of the suspect code.
Installation:
- Download TAC Plugin
- Upload tac.php to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
- Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
- Go to Design -> TAC in the WordPress Admin
- The results of the scan will be displayed for each theme with the filename and line number of any threats.
Found any suspicious code in your theme? We recommend contacting the theme author with the code that the script finds, as well as where you downloaded the theme. The real value of this Plugin is that you can quickly determine what and where code needs to be cleaned up.
Hope you found it useful. Share with us! Happy Blogging!!
