When we create an ecommerce store based on WordPress and WooCommerce, we have option to add product variation like size, color and price etc. Using these variations, we can create different pricing for different parameters we have set.
This let to a small change in how the product price is displayed on front end. For example if we set a price variation based on size where price is $10 for medium and $15 for large, the price displayed on front page is not $10 or $15 but $10-$15 by default.
If you would like to stop displaying the range and only lowest amount for the product, it can be done by adding the following code to functions.php file of your theme or child theme. It will stop displaying price as $10-$15 but will show $10. (more…)

Disable File Editing
The WordPress Dashboard by default allows administrators to edit PHP files, such as plugin and theme files. This is often the first tool an attacker will use if able to login, since it allows code execution. WordPress has a constant to disable editing from Dashboard. Placing this line in wp-config.php is equivalent to removing the ‘edit_themes’, ‘edit_plugins’ and ‘edit_files’ capabilities of all users:
define(‘DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT’, true);
This will not prevent an attacker from uploading malicious files to your site, but might stop some attacks.
