Yesterday, I found out that a website I worked on as a writer (I have no admin access) had been injecting malicious Javascript code in all its pages, as described in this article by Luke Leal. According to that article, a fake Wordpress plugin musts have been installed on that website to inject the malicious code. I want to draw your attention to this section of the malicious code: // This code is defined inside a PHP class... function save_striplple_plugin() …

I have successfully created a simple command, wp-cli theme save which runs a script to backup the site's theme files: <?php class Save_Command extends WP_CLI_Command { /** * Create a tarball of current active theme and save it to wp_themes directory in the user's config directory. * * @synopsis */ public function __invoke($args = array(), $assoc_args = array()) { exec ( 'wpst' ); } } WP_CLI::add_command( 'theme save', 'Save_Command' ); This code …

Today I noticed that \WP_CLI\Utils\wp_clear_object_cache() has been marked as deprecated in WP-CLI 1.5.0. The release notes don't mention anything about it. What should be used, instead? Do I still need to take care of flushing the cache myself or is it handled automatically now, like mentioned here?

I need to set a couple of Theme Mods to boolean and array values using WP CLI but can't find any way to do achieve it. I have already tried the following for booleans, but they appear to be treated as string: wp theme mod set my_theme_mod true wp theme mod set my_theme_mod 1 For arrays, I don't even know where to start, so have not tried anything yet. Any pointers please?

How can I find out what pages and post on a site contain a particular reusable block? Typically, to find content on a site, I issue wp db search *itemlookingfor* (like the post ID, part of a file name, or a word) OR wp db query 'SELECT ID FROM the_posts_table WHERE post_content LIKE "%itemlookingfor%" AND post_status="publish"' In my case, I used the reusable block's ID and no results were returned for either command. I replaced the ID of the reusable …

We're migrating a site from dev to production using wp-cli to replace all occurrences in the database for the url, just like in the search-replace example. (http://example.dev to https://example.com) wp search-replace finds and replaces all occurrences that it reported finding. However, there are still many lingering in the database, especially in serialized data. But, WP-CLI says that it handles serialized data as well. If I run wp db search 'http://example.dev' --all-tables I get 20 more occurrences of the string. If …

After using WPML Media, a plugin that creates duplicates of each image for each language, we now have almost 100,000 duplicate images that we're not going to use and need to get rid of. We need to not only delete these from the filesystem itself, but also need to make sure that deleting all references in the database as would typically happen if one were to manually delete them through the media gallery. I'm looking for a WP-CLI solution, if …

I regularly need to create a batch of posts of a custom post type, with names and meta values that follow a regular pattern.

Using wp-cli, if I enter: wp post create --post_title='test' --post_status='draft' post_type='class_notes' I get an error: Unable to read content from 'post_type=class_notes'. However wp-cli is definitely able to connect to this post type, as the following returns a proper list of labels …
