XC-Host — Support Blog

Earlier today I noticed an extremely high load on mysql. I checked it out in whm and it was a client account / friend of mine who was using wordpress on his website.. To make a long story short after about 30 minutes of troubleshooting I finally figured out that it was indeed a plugin for wordpress called YARPP aka Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.

So if you are using this plugin please disable it until an update comes out. The current version is: 2.1.3. The wordpress page for this is abailable here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/yet-another-related-posts-plugin

One last thing before I go. If anyone is having problems accessing their website please send in a Support Ticket. I had to install a new firewall this weekend to stop the hack attempts (even though the root password is over 20 characters). Still sorting out the kinks with it..
