Hi there, I suspect either this plugin or the WPWeb Updater plugin has a security flaw that has allowed both filesystem writes and database writes. I’ve tried emailing your pre-sales support address but have received no response. I should stress to others that I don’t have conclusive proof of this but out of the 120 odd sites we have, the only 5 that were hacked (in an identical way) were the 5 that had the latest version of Follow My Blog Post and the WPWeb Updater plugin installed. The other sites didn’t have the WPWeb Updater and had an older version of Follow My Blog Post. I’ve also confirmed that another user on Stack Overflow who suffered an identical hack also has WPWeb Updater installed. Unfortunately the attackers use POST requests to place the files and update the database and my logging didn’t include the POST body so I can’t see how they’re executing the attack. Please get in touch via email if you don’t mind.
Apologies for the inconvenience you are facing, while we have not received any email that is including such issue if you can connect with us over email or through our support ticket system our technical team will be able to help you by looking into this issue.
Unfortunately I can’t file a ticket as our support contract has expired. I’m not seeking support from you but do want to give you more information about the issue so it can be investigated. Do you have an email I can send to?
Please do share your following over here,

Thanks @charlywpweb, that’s where I sent my original emails. I’ve replied to my original email so you should have received it just now
Thank you for direct email we will get in touch with you there and carry forward our conversation and this issue for you.
Hello,
I think the plugin has a bug. When I add a post to favorites the first time, everything is OK (the counter shows 1 and the post will appear in the favorites list). I remove the same post from my favorites list and the counter shows 0. I add the same post back to my favorites. Then two of the same posts will appear in the favorites list (instead of one post) and the counter shows 2 instead of 1. A similar problem occurs with author likes.
Regards
Please do raise support ticket and connect with our technical representative so they will be able to help you with this by looking into the issue with you.

Hello to the team, I would like to purchase this plugin. Just three questions: - When reading a blog post (it’s a custom post type by the way, I guess it will work?): if they click on the “follow” button. Will they follow the post or the author? I would like them to follow the author. - If I allow guest to see the “follow” button, how does it work? A field is created where they add their email address? - It’s working with custom post type?
Thanks!
Our plugin works fine with custom post types too until they are created and registered with WordPress standard for code. for the follow buttons we do have multiple functionality which includes author follow too you will be able to choose according to your needs and make the follow button work accordingly. For Guest on click to follow button it will ask for their email address and that will be registered for the subscription.
Hi, I am using buddyboss/buddypress and I would like to give user possibility to follow not only post, but also post that are marked with specific tag. User would be able to choose, or mark tag/hashtags that the user is interested in. And once a post (usually imported with automator plugin) is created or an user write in buddypress activity with marked tag/hashtag the user will be notified. Is something like this possible? Thanks
Unfortunately, at the moment our current version of plugin doesn’t provide with this functionality. We would like you to submit your suggestion here.

Hi, Is it possible to display the count and follow separately using the shortcode, not hiding the counter. For example in my design i would like to display the counter on top and the follow button below the counter.
Yes, it can be possible by custom work. Drop us an email on support@wpwebelite.com if you are interested for custom work.
Before I buy, is there any possibility to allow notification to be done through Android, IOS and WebBrowser instead of email?
Apologies, current version do not have this feature. it can be possible by custom work. You can contact us on support@wpwebelite.com if you are interested for the custom work.
Hi, I would like to inquire if it is possible to include in the Edit Post Subscription Email Template the tag {post_description}. I assume this tag should render the ‘post_excerpt’. According to plugin’s documentation this tag is available in other templates but not in this one. Thank you!
Yes, we can do it by custom code. Please drop us an email on support@wpwebelite.com
Hi – we’ve just installed the plugin but require quite a few CSS changes. Can you advise how we can: - Change the font of the button and follower # text - Change the background color of the follower # text - Change the button styling (flat) and colors - Change the pop up box background and text colors Also – when an action is taken on a button, a pretty ugly looking ‘Processing’ gif displays. Can this be removed? Thank you!
We did reply to your support ticket. Thanks.
Hello, I have pre-sale question. In the past, I gave up using the plug-in due to the lack of the following options.
It’s a great plugin, but it doesn’t have one interesting feature. This plugin can also be used successfully as a rating plugin. Follow & Like button. However, there is no ranking function.
Is it possible to add a ranking function?
1. Most liked / followed entries: today | week | month | year | all the time – (shortcodes)
2. Top 5 most followed entries of the week or month sent by e-mail.
Regards, Cezary
Apologies, this is not included in the plugin but we can help you to develop this feature only for you. You can drop an email on support@wpwebelite.com if you are interested for custom work.
Hello! I have presale question.
I want let visitors subscribe to product category for receiving email when new product added to category. I read all your docs to understand how it works, and I think this is what I need. But I didn’t find how can I add subscription button to category pages in theme template.
I see that plugin have shortcode generator. I have more than 100 categories and I see that I need to specify a term in the shortcode generator for taxonomy subscription button. Is it possible to not specify term and use the current product category id?
I see you already purchased the plugin. Please submit a support ticket and we will help you out to configure the plugin.
Hello,
Is it possible to only sent the mail of a particular field has been edited?
We use an import to update posts but we only want to mail updates if one taxonomy has been updated.
How can we accomplish that?
Thanks
Apologies, plugin do not have this feature. However, it can be possible by custom work. You can drop us an email on support@wpwebelite.com if you are interested for the custom work.
Hi there, I was wondering if we can use Elementor Page builder to customize the Follow buttons colour and listing author following, and displaying the counter number of author or users have been followed?.
Thank you.
Plugin already have custom css option where you can add extra CSS for design changes instead of using Elementor.
PRE-SALE QUESTION:
Can I put a “follows” button to a tag, one button that will run with all the tags… At the moment I understand I need to create a button for each tag, and I have 1000+ tags …
The plugin do not have this feature but It can be possible by custom work. You can contact us on support@wpwebelite.com if you are interested.
Hi! Is it possible for users to follow “keywords” too, or just categories/tags?
Also, where is all the plugin data stored? In the wp_posts table, or a totally separate table?
One more question, any chance these notifications can also be served as web browser notifications?
Thank you!
1. Just a categories/tags only.
2. Data will get stored in wp_posts and wp_postmeta table
3. Apologies, the plugin do not have this feature.
Hi. I have a presale question.
I purchased Bimber theme in Themeforest. This theme allow all registered users to submit content through a form. In this form, users link a post to a category and several tags.
My question is if this plugin allow to web visitors to follow wordpress categories, tags categories and autors who submit posts.
keep in mind that Bimber is not a topic to develop a blog but rather for users to share content through the frontend.
If yes, what requirements should be met? can they be managed through wordpress? When installing the pluging, how are “follow” buttons generated in the authors’ cards, where in categories or tags? I have not been able to see a practical example in the plugin preview.
Can you check this theme to know what i mean, please?
Best regards.
https://themeforest.net/item/bimber-viral-buzz-wordpress-theme/14493994Yes, the plugin allows to follow WordPress categories, tags and authors but we never checked the same with Bimber theme. So, just to confirm with you how you want it to work.. when user submit a content from form, they will link that post to some categories and tags and you want to make follow button visible to that categories and tags. Now, if someone if following that category or tag, they will receive an update regarding the new content. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
Hi. I think so.
If a loged user push “follow” category or tag button, then the user who subscribed to that category or tag will receive an email or a push notification every time someone publishes an article or uploads content that is linked to that category or tag.
The buttons on the categories page would look similar to the following image:
https://ibb.co/k4qVNfmA not loged user only be able to see the number of category or tags subscribers.
https://ibb.co/zRNx4KRThis is how it works on another theme i am looking at, but i would like to have this feature in bimber.
Best regards.
Apologies, the screenshots you shared are not opening. Can you please drop us an email on support@wpwebelite.com with screenshots and I will help you out to check the compatibility.
I have managed to open the screenshots. I will need to check the compatibility with your theme so, please drop us an email on support@wpwebelite.com and we can discuss further.
Done.
Great! Thanks.
Hi, I’m interested in your plugin and would like to know if it’s compatible with Mylisting theme… I read in your previous comment that it is but you wrote: “customer post types should have publically access” What does that mean exactly? thanks
It means the custom post type should have public access so, it supports to our plugin and display the listing theme post types in our plugin settings.
Its so sad that I use to love this plugin, but now it no longer works as it supposed to and anytime you mail the author, he will take centuries to respond shabbily. For example, when an author updates his or her directory page, the Followers are supposed to get a notification, but in this case it is only when the website author does the update at backend, that Followers will receive Notifications. Very bad.
Apologies, can you please mention which version of the plugin are you using?
Does your plugin supports bulk editors? I always update my products using a bulk editor, buy I have not found any plugin that allows to send email updates to my clients when i update my products. I am using WooCommerce Advanced Bulk Edit
Which plugin are you using to perform bulk edit action?
I am using this plugin: WooCommerce Advanced Bulk Edit
codecanyon.net/item/woocommerce-advanced-bulk-edit/8011417
Even though I using that plugin as a bulk editor if you have compatibility with a different plugin I will change. For my business it is very important that I can notify my clients for updates
Apologies, our plugin is not compatible with bulk editor plugin. We can add a compatibility with the plugin. Please drop us an email on support@wpwebelite.com
