1. could it be some script inside DB?
2. could it be host configuration? the hoster says from thier side everything is ok, but I already have no idea who to believe.

If not solution, please, give me ideas where to search for the bug or script, please.
I even reuploaded the "uploads" folder.. everything... each .php files...

Check your url format settings in admin

Try resetting the permalinks. In wordpress dashboard->settings->permalinks

you mean setting-permallinks?
Post name http://mysite.com/sample-post/
I even tried to activate another format, but the same problem..
Something adds ? to each link, to posts, to category etc

I did it... the same..

I think it could be host problem or mysql..
But could mysql had script inside?

The permalink setup is correct. It should be something with the PHP configuration or server configuration. Could you please PM me the WHM/cPanel access so I can take a look in my end?

 

[Beezy]

Check for a .htaccess file in root? (show hidden files)

Disable all plugins and try?

But I reuploaded all .php files: wp-admin, wp-content, wp-incluids and all .php
Let me check if I have host login, I just moved here less just 2 months ago and still have no idea od thier Flex panel they use, so I asked hoster to create DB and the rest...
I understand more or less in server configuration but not on THIS server, I still had no time to check it...

I tried without plugins, and without htacess... didnt work...

 

[Eyasir Arafat]

Please try checking inside .htaccess file

 

[maya-zir]

Please try checking inside .htaccess file

I deleted htacess and uploaded a standart htacess, still doesnt work..:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

Looks good. Then it must be a server side issue. Needs to get inspected.

The host support say it is my problem..
I asked them to create a sub and check there links and then use it with my db.
Instead of sub they created expressdigest.com/wordpress where all links jump to https

 

[maya-zir]

I even have no login to host, because it is a new host and I never before work with this flex panel.
I was too busy and plan later ask them repeat my login etc.
So I even cant create db and additional website..
But I have ftp, you see httpdocs folder? There are all wp files..
So, I changed the name of that folder to old_one and create a new folder and named it httpdocs.
And uploaded there all wp clean files...

all these files are clean and new. The "wordpress" folder is where lated the hoster installed a sub

I've checked the page source for suspicious javascript codes. But your site looks clean.
And the sad thing is none of the hosting supports are that much responsive to their customers. So you should make your own hands dirty to fix issues. This issue needs to get inspected deeply.

 

[maya-zir]

The worst thing is this website is the unique source for pay host..
I have to pay next month 73 euros and I already told to hoster if no income no money for host...

 

[maya-zir]

But I try to think reasonable..
There just 3 possible problems:
1. files (but I uploaded everything clena and new)
2. mysql db (could it have bad scripts inside?)
3. host (in this case it is not my problem, hoster have to solve it)

So I need to know if DB could have bad script inside or it is impossible?

 

[maya-zir]

It cant be wrong wp config, because it looks like redirect, it begins to open right way and just then redirect.
I also tried to paste the correct link inside address bar but it redirects too.
So it is redirect 100%
But what redirects it?
something on host?
Something inside db?
I think I have HSS config for download the db to check it but it has almost 2gb

Yes! the database could have malicious scripts inside. You can try (or instruct the host to do) backing up the whole site including database first so you won't lose it. Then do a virus scan to clean the database and the file system.

I have old db backup (25.10.2018), but I posted at least 20 sponsored posts since then and cant locate them now...
The website has 171k posts... it posts 200 posts per day, so I nead to check last 10k posts and mark which ones were sponsored (around 20 posts) and post them again with old backup..
I already asked the hoster to create additional db using my old mysql db...and I will namually post again all sponsored posts...
But I would like meanwhile solve it without use the old backup

Have you tried to change the theme? I'm guessing something in string line in config. If new theme is working then its maybe due to theme update bug.

File system is ok, but I will insist the hoster scan my DB.
They desactivated Wordfence when I told them the site was too slow..
This was not the first time they desactivate wordfence telling me this is a bad plugin..
I use it 3 years and have no problem with this plugin, so I told them a lot of times the site is slow because of thier host and not because of wordfence but each time I email them reporting the website problem, they just desactivate the wordfence...idiots..
So I just try to inform the script was thier fault.. I had defence but they each time desactivated it...
I have VPS+support, so they have to help I hope.. I pay them for support too
