What In The World Is This!? Automatic Wordpress?

8 replies
I stumbled across something called "Automatic Wordpress Site Creation".

Nervous about inputting private info to check it out, I Googled it and found
several similar sites:

Automatic Wordpress Site Creation
Automatic Wordpress Site Creation
Automatic Wordpress Site Creation

Seems like a neat idea, but who would want to put their FTP info into a site that doesn't even explain what it is?

    I sure wouldn't do it. Seems like a great idea for hackers to get access to hosting accounts.

    There goes the answer...

    Or put it in this way: who would need such a "service" when having cPanel you can install WP with a few clicks?

    There was a new software put out recently that allows automatic installs of WP and that will set up theme and plugins. I am wondering if this is what the admin panel looks like and these people installed it on their home page instead of a hidden back folder on their site.

    I haven't installed or looked at my copy of the software yet, but it could be it. I definitely wouldn't enter my details on someone elses site though. That part we do know.

      I haven't looked at it in detail yet, but hopefully this weekend will free up some time for me.
