Does anyone still remember that I created a poll about letting WordPress (capital P) have its own category?

Well, it has been done: https://talk.lowendspirit.com/categories/wordpress
Let's create new topics instead of having one big WordPress post.
This post will be kept open, but it might get closed if needed.

@bikegremlin
Care to create new topics instead of posting in this one?

Sure you will get more attention to your posts 👍

No problem - it makes sense. Having a separate thread for each topic. That would make it easier to find the needed info later on.

I am sorry, but I don't really follow Oxygen Builder news. I think I am in one of their FB groups, but I never used/bought the product.

Yesterday I got DDoS'd on wp-cron.

178.32.148.251 - - [10/Jul/2022:05:56:10 +0000] "GET /wp-cron.php?93493684389 HTTP/1.1" 508 3976 "https://www.google.com.af/search?q=doma.in/wp-cron.php" "Mozilla/5.0 (Linux x86_64; rv:63.0) Gecko/20210627 Firefox/63.0"

I looked into wp-config.php and define('DISABLE_WP_CRON', true); was already present.

Anybody have any idea?

DISABLE_WP_CRON will disable wp-cron checks on every request, so you can set your own timing for it. It will not disable the WP Cron system entirely.

You can block wp-cron.php in your firewall or using .htaccess
