For Security Purposes, I am Shutting Down the Wild Hemlock Facebook and Instagram Accounts

Meta knows every website you visit that has the Meta Pixel installed.

And who you are.

Don't worry - I'm staying here on Tumblr! But stop by and take a look at the New and Improved WildHemlock.Com!

As explained by The Register, Hacker News, and elsewhere, all of the apps created by Meta (formerly Facebook) are exploiting a permission in the Android operating system to track everything you do on mobile web browsing apps such as Chrome, Firefox, and even partially DuckDuckGo. According to LifeHacker, the mobile web browser Brave successfully blocked the tracking. I could not find any information about other web browsers such as Vivaldi or the many additional Firefox flavors.

So how is Meta doing this exactly? First, let’s talk about apps. The Instagram app only allows you to post via mobile app which is additionally nefarious. When Meta’s apps are installed on your phone, it will continually run in the background as a service. This grants the app additional privileges. For a popular example, YouTube didn’t always use to be able to make a video play while you were using another app. It was rewritten some time ago as a service, as opposed to a normal app, and now it can play both audio or picture-in-picture while you use your phone and other apps because it has more permissions. This is the type of app that Facebook and Instagram are.

Android services have access to what is referred to as localhost. Think of it like the local device hosting the app – it is an address which loops back to your phone. The address is 127.0.0.1 in web browsing – it points back to your own computer. If you were hosting a service on your computer, it would open service when you type “127.0.0.1” into the address bar of your web browser. This is very useful for developers, both on a mobile phone or computer, especially for testing network programming.

Wild Hemlock Will NEVER Install a Meta Pixel Script!

How to Move Your WordPress Site from Localhost to a Live Server

Developing a WordPress site on localhost is a great way to build and test your website in a controlled environment. However, the real challenge arises when it's time to move the site from your local server to a live hosting environment. If not done correctly, you could encounter broken links, missing images, or even database errors.

In this blog, we'll guide you through a step-by-step process to successfully move your WordPress site from localhost to a live server.

Step 1: Choose the Right Hosting Provider

Your first step is to select a reliable web hosting provider that meets your website’s needs. Look for:

Server Speed: Fast servers for better performance.

Uptime Guarantee: At least 99.9% uptime to ensure availability.

Ease of Use: User-friendly dashboards and tools.

WordPress Support: Hosting optimized for WordPress websites.

Popular options include Bluehost, SiteGround, and WP Engine.

Step 2: Export Your Local WordPress Database

The database is the backbone of your WordPress site. To export it:

Open phpMyAdmin on your local server (e.g., XAMPP or WAMP).

Select your WordPress database.

Click on the Export tab and choose the Quick Export method.

Save the .sql file to your computer.

Step 3: Upload Your WordPress Files to the Live Server

To move your files:

Compress Your WordPress Folder: Zip your local WordPress installation folder.

Access Your Hosting Account: Use a file manager or an FTP client like FileZilla.

Upload the Files: Transfer the zipped folder to your hosting server's root directory (usually public_html).

Unzip the Folder: Extract the files once uploaded.

Step 4: Create a Database on the Live Server

Now, set up a new database on your live hosting server:

Log in to your hosting control panel (e.g., cPanel).

Navigate to the MySQL Databases section.

Create a new database, database user, and password.

Assign the user to the database with full privileges.

Step 5: Import the Database to the Live Server

Open phpMyAdmin in your hosting control panel.

Select the new database you created.

Click the Import tab.

Choose the .sql file you exported from your localhost.

Click Go to import the database.

Step 6: Update the wp-config.php File

To connect your site to the live database:

Locate the wp-config.php file in your WordPress installation.

Open the file in a text editor.

Update the following lines: define('DB_NAME', 'your_live_database_name'); define('DB_USER', 'your_live_database_user'); define('DB_PASSWORD', 'your_live_database_password'); define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); // Keep this unless your host specifies otherwise.

Save the file and upload it to your server via FTP.

Step 7: Update URLs in the Database

Your localhost URLs need to be replaced with your live site URLs.

Use a tool like Search Replace DB or run SQL queries in phpMyAdmin.

In phpMyAdmin, run the following query: UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = 'http://your-live-site.com' WHERE option_name = 'siteurl'; UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = 'http://your-live-site.com' WHERE option_name = 'home';

Step 8: Test Your Live Website

Once everything is uploaded and configured, check your website by entering its URL in a browser. Test for:

Broken Links: Fix them using plugins like Broken Link Checker.

Missing Images: Ensure media files were uploaded correctly.

Functionality: Verify forms, buttons, and features work as expected.

Step 9: Set Up Permalinks

To ensure proper URL structure:

Log in to your WordPress admin dashboard on the live site.

Go to Settings > Permalinks.

Choose your preferred permalink structure and click Save Changes.

Step 10: Secure Your Live Website

After migrating, secure your site to prevent vulnerabilities:

Install an SSL Certificate: Most hosting providers offer free SSL certificates.

Update Plugins and Themes: Ensure everything is up to date.

Set Up Backups: Use plugins like UpdraftPlus for regular backups.

Conclusion

Moving your WordPress site from localhost to a live server may seem daunting, but by following these steps, you can ensure a smooth and error-free migration. A successful move allows you to showcase your site to the world, engage your audience, and achieve your goals.

Backing Up Your Localhost WordPress Site: Methods and Tools

Creating backups of your localhost WordPress site is an essential practice for safeguarding your work and ensuring you can recover from unexpected errors or data loss. Whether you are testing themes, developing plugins, or building a new website, a reliable backup process can save you time and stress. This blog outlines effective methods and tools to back up your localhost WordPress site.

Why Backup Your Localhost WordPress Site?

Prevent Data Loss

Unintentional file deletions, database errors, or hardware failures can result in losing hours of work.

Keep backups in at least two locations, such as an external drive and cloud storage.

Test Your Backups

Regularly restore backups to verify their integrity and functionality.

Document Your Process

Maintain a clear record of your backup and restoration steps for future reference.

Secure Your Backups

Encrypt sensitive backups and limit access to authorized users.
