WordPress fixes for slow, hacked or broken sites | Custom themes
If your WordPress site is slow, hacked, or breaks every time someone edits it, that's the work I do most. I find the actual cause, fix it on a copy of your site first, and leave you a written note of every change. A few recent jobs: A relocation company's server had been running at 56% CPU for over 35 hours. Two earlier consultant reports had blamed the wrong thing. It was a translation plugin job stuck in a loop on one oversized database row. Once fixed, the job finished in 2 min 21 s, and I added a small plugin so it can't happen again. Two hacked sites on one hosting account. I removed 4 web shells, 4 attacker admin accounts and 1,491 injected database rows, found how they got in (an old file manager plugin) and closed it. The attacker came back three times during the 72-hour watch afterwards and failed every time. A contact form that had quietly stopped delivering enquiries, with no bounce and no error. The site was sending as a Gmail address it had no right to use, so Gmail dropped every message. I fixed the DNS and the sender, and added a log so an enquiry can never vanish without a trace again. A builder's site moved off Elementor onto a custom block theme with ACF, custom post types and a locked-down editor role, so the owner can add projects without breaking the design. Technical SEO across four sites for one photographer: Rank Math, redirects, sitemaps, Search Console, with every item checked against the live site afterwards rather than assumed. How I work Every job starts with a local copy of your site, then staging, then live. Nothing gets tested on your real site. Deploys come with a backup and a rollback ready. You get a short written report of what changed and how to undo it, so you (or the next developer) never have to guess. What I do Site speed and Core Web Vitals Malware cleanup and security hardening Contact form and email deliverability (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) Custom block themes, ACF, custom post types Custom plugins and forms, including API integrations WooCommerce fixes Ongoing maintenance and updates Send me your URL and what's going wrong. I'll reply with what I think the cause is and a fixed price.
