For some time, I'm getting the error Public and Private keys incorrect for wp-user when I try to update a plug-in. I've a CentOS 7 VPS setup with a LAMP stack. I've installed and configured my Wordpress installation which works fine except that I can't update plug-ins or make image uploads via the Wordpress control panel. I let Wordpress access to my server using SSH. I've followed this tutorial to do so. Basically there is a specific user in my …

I have a wordpress website hosted on AWS Lightsail. On that website, I would like to use a shortcode to retrieve data from a database using mysqli. However, everytime the script that connects to the database is executed, I receive a connection error. The database is on the same AWS Lightsail instance. I was wondering if I need to establish an SSH-tunnel because this is also needed if I connect to phpmyadmin. But since the script is executed on the …

I'm at a point in my git education where I've refined my .gitignore file such that when I push from my local development machine to a remote repository (which happens to be on Azure, but it could just as easily be on github), the folders and files in the repo are precisely how I want them to be. That is: wp-content/plugins/my-custom-plugins wp-content/themes/my-custom-theme ...and that's basically it. I don't want the wp-config in the mix, or any of the stock WP …

I am working with a WordPress site on AWS wherein the site was mapped to a specific domain. That domain has long since been sold and canceled, so I want to change the domain to something else to access the site content. The issue is, when attempting to navigate to the admin portal through /wp-admin or /wp-login.php or similar, the site redirects me to the naked domain which obviously fails since the DNS is no longer configured there. Can you …

To modify files via SSH I need to have the files owned by ubuntu:www-data. But for wordpress to be able to install or update plugins I need to have the files owned by www-data:www-data. Any way around changing ownership all the time aside from manually adding the plugins? I have tried setting file/folder permissions to 664 and 775, 2664 and 2775, but it doesn't help. Not sure what the difference is between 644 and 664 or 775 and 755 if …

I of course have ConnectBot, but I'm looking for something I can script. Edit: To clarify here, I'm not interested in running scripts from a terminal. What I want to do is run an SSH command in an automated/scheduled manner. Tasker and Locale Execute are the equivalent of cron, all I need is the 'ssh' command to run from the script.

I have a WordPress site that needs to move into a WordPress Multisite. I tried to find the site file to upload in wp-content/uploads/sites but I couldn't locate the file. I also tried to upload the MySQL databases but I could not change the Multisite site database prefix. Does anyone have any idea on how I can import a site into Multisite? The fully way instead of just the pages and posts using WordPress import.

Migrated from Stackoverflow & Unix & Linux: Recently I tried to setup a Wordpress server on Fedora28 based droplet on Digital Ocean. A followed some tutorials and the result was the same: After a "successful" Wordpress installation I couldn't add new plugins etc. Followed some resolving methods(debug, tutorials etc.), I found that it could be something about the unsuccessful SSH connection between Wordpress app and Wordpress.org. Then in a tutorial a read the following, which is for Ubuntu and for …

I read near the end of this guide regarding utilizing SSHguard to protect WordPress from Brute force attacks that after configuring SSHguard the relevant way, one must: disable XML-RPC by blocking all remote access to /xmlrpc.php in your web server configuration. I don't use XML-RPC in any of my websites. I use Nginx as my web server. I'm not sure what is the best way to totally block XML-RPC. Nginx conf for each site? WP-CLI operation per site? What is …

I have a wp-cli.yml file that defines an alias for a remote host: @origin: ssh: myserver.example.com path: /path/to/htdocs This would normally allow me to use wp @origin command to run remote commands on the other host. In one case, however, the remote host is only visible through an SSH proxy, so my system has an SSH config entry in ~/.ssh/config: Host myserver.example.com ProxyCommand ssh -q -W %h:22 proxyserver.example.com ForwardAgent yes This instructs it to first connect to the proxy server, …

I moved my site from http to https, but I wish to preserve my facebook likes. From what I read, I should use the og:url metatag so that facebook will know how to fix the likes on that page. I tried the following code, but it fails to change my urls from https to http in jetpack.

I upgraded my Ubuntu server to php 7 and setup ssh2. Afterwards, my WordPress plugins/themes will not update. I am receiving the Unable to locate WordPress Content directory (wp-content). This feature worked fine prior using php 5. My permissions were not changed and remain 755 (folders) 644 (files). I am using the same ssh user as before, which is my primary user on the server. I unzipped the php7.zip file to create the pecl-networking-ssh2-php7 directory in my user's home directory. …

I updated my server from Ubuntu 15.10 to Ubuntu 16.04, and one of the things that updated was PHP. After the upgrade, doing plugin updates over ssh don't work any more. At first it was prompting for FTP login credentials until I installed php-ssh2 (which cautions that it's based on a git snapshot). Now when I try to upgrade a plugin, it says An error occurred while updating WP to Twitter: Unable to locate WordPress Content directory (wp-content). And in …
