== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= The Meta Name Generator is still displaying the WordPress version.  How could this be?  =

Make sure that your template does not have a hard coded reference within the header.php file.  Some older templates seem to have this reference. Please delete or comment the line.

= Is there a way to keep track when the readme.html file is deleted? =

Yes. There is a log.txt file within the plugin folder that allows you to see
each time the readme.html file was deleted.  The idea behind this is to make
sure that the WordPress version is not visible to hackers.

= When is the readme.html file deleted? =

The readme.html file is deleted only when activating the plugin.  It is recommended that you
deactivate the plugins when upgrading to a newer WordPress version.
Upgrading to a newer version of WordPress is the time where the readme.html file is created.  Therefore, this plugin removes the readme.html file if found when activating the plugin.

= I cannot see the logs.txt file within the wp-best-practices directory. Why? =

Most likely this is a permissions issue.  Check to see that the wp-best-practices directory has write permissions.

= I cannot access my wp-login.php page anymore. Why? =

Please make sure you are passing the proper password string. If you cannot remember the password string, please take a look at your .htaccess file.
