[Resolved] Strange txt at the top left corner displays username in code

  • @intristin

    Newest version of WordPress and buddypress. Strange txt at the top left corner displays username in code. No idea where it is coming from. Anyone can point me in the correct direction of where I should look to correct the problem? Check the link below, it’s hard to see, but it’s in the top left corner right under the wordpress bar. thanks

    It’s a plugin. I’m guessing by the source code it’s by a plugin called “Outwire”?

    Try disabling that or any plugin that injects meta tags.

    Source code tells also this when only highlighting the link you mention

    <link href=”data:image/png;base64 … followed by a very long encrypted code block.

    I would suggest to check for such a base64 in all theme files, just in case of you’re victim of a malicious injection or simply use some wrong code in your beta plugin.

    Your site is loading slow and with such encoded png’s the culprit is probably the images.

    strange, I disabled every single plug-in but buddypress and the txt is still there. Perhaps my install of buddypress has been corrupted in some way? If I delete the plugin and re-download and install it will I loose all the profile data?

    Oh and there is no plug-in called outwire, that is the name of the site, not sure what you were referring to there.

    Firstly a good news: your site is not infected ! 😉
    http://app.webinspector.com/

    But check for some HTML errors: 52 Errors, 6 warning(s) according to
    http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Foutwire.net%2Fmembers%2Fjadedtristin%2F

    Included the 2 errors who must absolutely be corrected to solve your issue.

    At the end of this line, which contains the encoded png
    <meta property="og:title" content="<a href=" http:="" outwire.net="" members="" jadedtristin="" "="">
    bp-wall js”>jadedtristin” /&gt ; <——- here is an error closing tag > is not correctly formed

    And another here
    <meta itemprop="name" content="<a href=" http:="" outwire.net="" members="" jadedtristin="" "="">jadedtristin" /&gt ; <——- here is an error closing tag > is not correctly formed

    Both are under <!--/ Facebook Thumb Fixer Open Graph /--> line

    What is bp-wall js ? Is this in your theme ?

    Deactivate all plugins but BP and also your theme and activate 2014 to see if the text is still there.

    Ok, I just deactivated all plugs again, this time I cleared the server cache, and I restarted them one at a time. When I turned on Facebook Thumb Fixer the txt appeared. So you are correct, it was Facebook Thumb Fixer. I will contact the makers of that and see if I can find a fix. I really like that plug in so I will figure it out.

    bd-wall is this plugin : https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-wall/ but it seems to not be related to the problem I was having. Thank you so much for all your help.
