Hello Ciaran,

For two days, after migrating to php 7.2 from 5.6 I've had nothing but conflicting plug in issues with my Privilege site. I haven't been able to log in due to code errors, etc. Are you aware of any of these issues. One being my favicon which I don;'t think is yours.. not sure..

So I found out that someone compromised my site .. not sure how since its not published. But, I think it was through a plugin. I had my host revert my site back to php 5.6 so I was able to log back in and review some issues.

I checked back links and found that someone entered more than 200 entries for more than 5 websites, diverting traffic from my website to these others. I have plans to ask these companies if they are using a certain company to increase their website traffic. All entries began in May 2018 - Oct 2018. I deleted them all.

Ciaran what caused me to dig deeper is because when I click on my menu items, I receive a 404 errors. I'm checking my HTACCESS and Configuration php files. Can you offer more suggestions please so I can get my site back up and running properly. I had plans to finish this site and publish.

I'm attaching a sample

Thank you.

Ok, I'm not sure if no one else has had this problem but apparently it is a big issue .. I found this article on Joomla discussing what happens when redirect is enabled .. hope this helps someone else.. I have now disabled it and added recommended additional code to my .htaccess file as well
