I was working with .htaccess and whenever i change some apache headers in .htaccess so in a few moments some script was adding the following snippet again on EOF. It was a surprise for me that what type of ghost is there inside WordPress which has to check the “# END WordPress” and appends after it again and again.
\nAddHandler x-mapp-php5.5 .php
\n# BEGIN WordPress
\n
\nRewriteEngine On
\nRewriteBase \/
\nRewriteRule ^index\\.php$ - [L]
\nRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
\nRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
\nRewriteRule . \/index.php [L]
\n<\/IfModule>
\n<\/code>
\nFinally i tried to search in the plugins area that which script is doing this trick to .htaccess file. Although i found w3c plugin files in wp-content area but the plugin was not installed at that time. After the quest of 30 minutes i reached to a plugin named “BackUpWordPress Backup Plugin” which was supposed to backup the files but he was taking care of .htaccess files too. I simply deactivated it but still something was doing the same with the file so i was wrong about that plugin :(. I continued my search for the next plugin. Finally after testing every single plugin, i found that ghost plugin. It was “Ultimate Members”. So i reported<\/a> to the plugin author immediately.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
