Malware effected files wordpress
Budget: £10 – £20 GBP
I am looking for a freelancer who can help me with my WordPress website that is functioning normally, but I suspect it has been affected by malware. Unfortunately, I do not have a backup of the website prior to the malware effect.
There's an issue with the site due to a broken plugin. I recommend checking with your developer and re-install it. Below is the error for your reference:

Outdated software makes your site vulnerable to hackers, and they can break into the site even after our cleanup. So please update this software at the earliest.
It's showing clean on VirusTotal, which scans your website against 90 different blocklists that would've flagged your website for malware if it still had any: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url/fd863b4cd8fa32aaa1e86ddad2b3d3706e091bbb379e92ebba5d6900989c2518?nocache=1
I've reviewed the Google Transparency Report/safe browsing and it is not giving any alerts at this moment: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=https:%2F%2Fmanchesterphotographystudio.com%2F&hl=en
Please follow these general steps to avoid reinfection as much as possible:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
✅ Activate your website firewall to stop the hackers proactively.
✅ Update your website CMS, plugins and themes because out-of-date software is the leading cause of infections.
✅ Choose a good and strong password. A good password is built around three core components - complex, long, and unique.
✅ Review website administrative login accounts and identify user accounts not created by you.
✅ Change your FTP, SFTP, admin as well as database passwords
✅ Run a virus scan on your personal computer. In a lot of cases we see that websites are compromised via local environments (notebooks, desktops, etc.).
✅ Run a vulnerability scan if your website has custom code since vulnerable code would let hackers in again and again.
✅ Start doing backups of your site. After the site is clean and secure, a good practice is to do regular backups.
