I called my hosting company. They had experienced issues/vulnerabilities with W3 Total Cache and automatically updated my site to the latest version. This apparently broke the site. As soon as I disabled the plug-in, the site started rendering properly.
Thanks for the quick replies!
RSBMemberIn case it's useful for others, here's how I resolved this:
The user who was getting blocked sent me the error message he was receiving:
Security risk blocked for your protection
This Websense category is filtered: Potentially Damaging Content. Sites in this category may pose a security threat to network resources or private information, and are blocked by your organization.I sent an email to [email protected]. One of their researchers responded in just a few minutes saying they had reviewed and reclassified my site, and that this would be reflected in the next update of their database publication.
RSBMemberI'd be very interested if anyone has thoughts and/or guidance on this approach and related questions... Thanks!
Cheers,
RSBRSBMemberThanks for the guidance. From looking at other forum threads, it appears that a critical plug-in on my home page - Featured Content Gallery - has not been updated in several years and will not work with recent versions of WP.
So I'm thinking a three phase approach would be best:
1) As a short-term/temporary fix: Minor updates to the site content only2) As soon as possible after that: Update and refresh the site (WP, plug-ins, Gemini, etc.) per your suggestions above. Use Dynamic Content Gallery to replace FCG (I believe DCG is compatible with Genesis and the Corporate Theme)
Does this sound reasonable so far?
3) I also want to rehost the site (it's currently with GoDaddy). Would you recommend: (a) making the WP/Gemini/plug-in updates on my current site (before rehosting), or (b) setting up the updated site with the new host (using a different URL, e.g. alucida-llc.net) and then switching to the new site to the current URL (alucida-llc.com)?
