Add the code below to your Theme’s Functions file,

its path in most themes is

[php]

//Custom CSS Widget
add_action(‘admin_menu’, ‘custom_css_hooks’);
add_action(‘save_post’, ‘save_custom_css’);
add_action(‘wp_head’,'insert_custom_css’);
function custom_css_hooks() {
add_meta_box(‘custom_css’, ‘Custom CSS’, ‘custom_css_input’, ‘post’, ‘normal’, ‘high’);
add_meta_box(‘custom_css’, ‘Custom CSS’, ‘custom_css_input’, ‘page’, ‘normal’, ‘high’);
}
function custom_css_input() {
global $post;
echo ‘<input type=”hidden” name=”custom_css_noncename” id=”custom_css_noncename” value=”‘.wp_create_nonce(‘custom-css’).’” />’;
echo ‘<textarea name=”custom_css” id=”custom_css” rows=”5″ cols=”30″ style=”width:100%;”>’.get_post_meta($post->ID,’_custom_css’,true).’</textarea>’;
}
function save_custom_css($post_id) {
if (!wp_verify_nonce($_POST['custom_css_noncename'], ‘custom-css’)) return $post_id;
if (defined(‘DOING_AUTOSAVE’) && DOING_AUTOSAVE) return $post_id;
$custom_css = $_POST['custom_css'];
update_post_meta($post_id, ‘_custom_css’, $custom_css);
}
function insert_custom_css() {
if (is_page() || is_single()) {
if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();
echo ‘<style type=”text/css”>’.get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), ‘_custom_css’, true).’</style>’;
endwhile; endif;
rewind_posts();
}
}

[/php]

when it’s done, a Custom CSS box will appear so you can add your CSS rules inside.

If the box didn’t appear after you’ve added the code to your Functions.php file, check it from Screen Options.

Some WordPress themes doesn’t natively support Menus which has been added in WordPress 3.

to solve this problem you have to add this code to your Theme functions.php file first

[code]add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menus' );
function register_my_menus() {
register_nav_menus(
array(
'header' => __( 'Header Menu' ),
'footer' => __( 'Footer Menu )
)
);
}[/code]

the next step is to call the menu ,

place this code in your header.php file where you want the menu to appear

[code]<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'header' ) ); ?>[/code]

and the same goes for the footer menu, place this code in your footer.php file where you want the menu to appear

keep your WordPress and the plugins up to date

you must keep your WordPress and the plug-ins up to date, because mostly it will prevent the bad guys from using known vulnerabilities to hack your site

there is a great plugin that automatically upgrade the WordPress installation to the latest one provided by WordPress.org u can find it here

• Always check WordPress Development Blog for the latest security issues.

Use a strong password

check this meter out

Use a different prefix

for your WordPress Database tables to mitigate zero-day SQL Injection attacks.

Disable directory browsing

attackers will know what u have on your site [plugins, etc] , so just write this to your .htaccess file

Always backup your files before modifying or editing them!

[php] Options All -Indexes [/php]

Prevent Search Engines from indexing your sub-folders

Also write this code to your robots.txt file to prevent bots from indexing your sub-folders contents

[php]User-agent: *
Disallow: /cgi-bin
Disallow: /wp-*
[/php]

Protect your wp-config.php file

wp-config.php file contains all your database login information, it should be protected well, this code will prevent anyone from looking at it, write it to your .htaccess file

[php]# protect wpconfig.php
<files wp-config.php>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</files>
[/php]

or u can just move it, the wordpress has the ability to check for wp-config.php in your root directory,
which will make it harder to find or access your wp-config.php file
So you can change the location of your wp-config.php file from

To

Limit login attempts

Sometimes the hacker might think they know your password, or they might develop a script to guess your password. In that case what you need to do is limit the login attempts. You can easily do so by using a plugin called Login Lockdown

which will lock a user out if they entered the wrong password more than the specified time. They will be locked out for a specified time. You can control the settings via your wp-admin panel.

Limit the access to the admin panel

if you have a static IP address this will be helpful, with this code you will be the only one who can access the admin area , write this to the .htaccess in your wp-admin folder,

[php]Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

[/php]

replace the xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with your IP address

Use secret-key

security keys, AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_KEY, and LOGGED_IN_KEY, were added to insure better encryption of information stored in the user’s cookies. A secret key is a hashing salt which makes your site harder to hack and access harder to crack by adding random elements to the password, In simple terms, a secret key is a password with elements that make it harder to generate enough options to break through your security barriers. A password like “password” or “test” is simple and easily broken. A random, unpredictable password such as “88a7da62429ba6ad3cb3c76a09641fc” takes years to come up with the right combination.To add security keys, open your wp-config.php
Visit this URL to get Security Keys: click here [random keys <-]
Find these lines in wp-config.php
[php]
define(‘AUTH_KEY’, ‘put your unique phrase here’);
define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘put your unique phrase here’);
define(‘LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ‘put your unique phrase here’);
define(‘NONCE_KEY’, ‘put your unique phrase here’);
[/php]

And insert the keys you from the generator, ex:

[php]
define(‘AUTH_KEY’, ‘GJ–Vxy|sNmv8J4XS-o]={]O90_kK%ns,hsZ*hMpq+)y?aZc$,[s`I{Qh-?P22kd');
define('SECURE_AUTH_KEY', '&#+Rlm?xb?1]#w-v|W||H[!_ev@KMrP');
[/php]

WordPress Anti-virus Protection

Protect your blog from malicious URL Requests

with this simple plugin just Paste the following code into a text file, and save it as blockbadqueries.php. Once done, upload it to your wp-content/plugins directory and activate it like any other plugins. That’s all!

global $user_ID; if($user_ID) {
if(!current_user_can(‘level_10′)) {
if (strlen($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']) > 255 ||
stripos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], “eval(“) ||
stripos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], “CONCAT”) ||
stripos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], “UNION+SELECT”) ||
stripos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], “base64″)) {
@header(“HTTP/1.1 414 Request-URI Too Long”);
@header(“Status: 414 Request-URI Too Long”);
@header(“Connection: Close”);
@exit;
}
}
} ?>[/php]

Remove or Disable non used plugins

You would have tried lot of them for checking the functionality, but you would not have disabled or removed them. Remove all the non used plugins. Hackers can find a way exploit to them, even if you are not using them.

Backup

Always keep back up of your blog’s files and database, backup the blog contents to your system regularly. Taking manual backups are tedious tasks. So I recommend using WP Database Backup. Even if your database is compromised, you can restore it with the help of this plugin.
