Purge blackHat SEO

This plugin is designed for site administrators who need to clean up hidden, malicious SEO spam injected into their content. It systematically scans posts and pages to identify and remove these harmful elements, which are often invisible to visitors but can damage search rankings.

• Automated Content Scanning: The tool checks all published posts and pages for patterns commonly associated with black-hat SEO injections, such as hidden divs with unusual styling.
• Selective Cleanup Controls: Administrators can choose to target specific types of content (like posts or pages) during the scan and removal process for more precise control.
• Focus on Infection Removal: Its primary function is to cleanse the visible symptom—the malicious content within your posts. Note that it does not remove the underlying malware file that may be causing the repeated infections.
• Manual Signature Input: To use the plugin effectively, you must first identify and input the specific HTML or code signature of the infection you are targeting, as detailed in the provided instructions.
• Safety Recommendation: The documentation strongly advises creating a full database backup before running any cleanup operations, allowing for restoration if needed.
