Warning: GenericWordPressThemes

[SwampFae]

On May 4th someone left a comment to hannacam.net’s inStone wordpress theme and a link to genericwpthemes.com. Also known as Generic Wordpress Themes.

I would like to warn everyone that genericwpthemes.com steals wordpress themes from other peoples websites including our own inStone wordpress theme, then they post it on their own website for people to download.

Read more

(Note: The "Read more" link is safe, folks. I can guarantee that as I work there)

So, what is this about?


Also do you think it would be possible to, you know, break those links, though it is unclear which site you are refering too in the brackets.

So we should blackist genericwpthemes and never visit there, right, right?

"Reverse engineering of this file is strictly prohibited." lol. specials. Doesn't personally look base64 encoded to me though.


btw: its always*, not allways.

This is about someone implementing some viscious code into WordPress themes.
As for the links. Tried removing the auto-linking there twice. Didn't want to. So just removed the http prefix.
And yes. We should avoid the genereicwpthemes site

Thank you for noticing this. The typo will be taken care of as soon as possible.

Sorry, where did you see "allways"?

The website you 'work' at

ALLWAYS download wordpress themes from its original website and ALLWAYS check footer.php and functions.php for BASE64 encrypted code.

We've taken care of it (Note that the post on HC&Co was not written by me)
Also: Trax. The work I do is reviews and some news. (Suzumi, The Demanding Gamer)

It seems that I've been somewhat consistent when writing “Allways”. Of course it should be always and I've corrected it now.

I've edited the text now Draco Malfoy. Ops! I mean Traxata

It wasnt clear if you were randomly reporting slandering of the site you worked at "genereicwpthemes" or not. Glad its clear now, though im still mystified what this is about.
