IONOS WordPress PHP add-on.

April 15, 2023 / EDITOR / 0 Comments

IONOS WordPress PHP add-on.

I start off today receiving my monthly bulk invoice from IONOS and to my shock and horror I see 7 contracts with an add-on of £7.03 plus vat each for a PHPExtended Support add-on.

You can just imagine the anger I was feeling seeing as non of their packages if you were to buy them state there will be an add-on charge and that all the packages in fact have PHP support included (according to the screenshots).

This is against trading standards and here are the Managed Packages.

Manage WordPress

Managed WordPress Hosting UK | From £1/month | IONOS

This Screenshot below is what I believe is a misinterpretation of wording.

Wording Misinterpretation.

Enlarged Screenshot Of Above.

This last screenshot states they do not charge more than what is stated in their packages which is a contradiction in terms, yet they sneakily added the add-on. Some of my sites have been going for a few years and some do not even have WordPress 7.02 never mind the latest version WordPress 8.0. I aim to show IONOS this article and I will screenshot proof of both the managed and unmanaged options, just in case they edit their site.

Unmanaged WordPress Packages

Most of my sites are managed but for the unmanaged here are the screenshots:

WordPress Hosting | Domain Included First Year | IONOS UK

Do take note that if they change their website after I publish this article you will know if any links are broken and you can compare both my screenshots to their published site.

Phoning Customer Support

As you can imagine I sent two emails and had autoresponders, but because I suffer from cognitive impairment I sometimes miss blocks and sentences out reading or writing and did not read that their emails are no longer monitored.

I should have just made this post and started a chat, but will need to phone them again before the 30th of this month as they have deferred payment until I back up my sites.

I did not read the email properly as I also had another email for IONOS on the 2nd March 2023 notifying me of changes, again I skimmed through the email without reading it word for word.

However, after a close inspection today, the telephone support agent told me to re-read the email again. Here is the screenshot. Nowhere in the email does it say about the costs involved in the ‘PHP Extended Support’. They could just as easily charge £100 per contract because nowhere does it state actual pricing.

Email Support (No Longer Available)

Coginitive Impairment Issues

In my defense, I stated I have cognitive impairment issues, and coincidently a website that is hosted by IONOS I actively talk about my health and may in some cases not read emails properly.

PHP Extended Support

I was told if I disabled PHP Extended Support all my websites would crash. Considering I have Managed WordPress on all of them if that was the case I could take legal action. I aim to back up all the sites before this takes place and will not be happy if God forbid my sites go AWOL.

According to the IONOS website, I should not be worried about disabling the add-on, yet the customer support agent stated otherwise.

PHP Extended Support – IONOS Help

Updating PHP

I thought a managed site meant that the hosting provider updates your PHP.

Display or Change PHP Versions – IONOS Help

Update your PHP version and cancel PHP Extended Support – IONOS

My Disputed Contracts

85681128 £7.03 u*t**s***e.co.uk PHP EXTENDED SUPPORT
85690451 £7.03 r****ae*********r.com PHP EXTENDED SUPPORT
80534683 £7.03 d*******e**********r.uk PHP EXTENDED SUPPORT
85278136 £7.03 r*****a.pl PHP EXTENDED SUPPORT
86072811 £7.03 u*b*******b*****g.co.uk PHP EXTENDED SUPPORT
76728095 £7.03 c******p******s********s.co.uk PHP EXTENDED SUPPORT
78411787 £7.03 p**t******w****.co.uk PHP EXTENDED SUPPORT

Conclusion

What gets me every time is the number of agents that say “You have so many contracts“. The impression I get is they are being ungrateful and complain that I give them so much business.

Seeing as they do not have email support any longer I will start a chat next week and will forward them this article to read. No way I am going to have to repeat myself again, although I still have a couple of direct emails to people within IONOS which I may try. They certainly do want to push my buttons.

I have wanted a whole day sorting this out rather than actually doing some work. My tolerance levels are at a high because I really want to scream.

I am going to double-check that all my sites are managed and all hell will break loose if they aren’t. Why is it that some of my websites are on WordPress PHP 5 version, that is the question, yet they want to charge me for PHP Exented support for PHP 7?

I will update this article once I back up all my sites, which is a job I could have done without.

Juggling Life, Health, Stress & Entrepreneurship

March 31, 2023 / EDITOR

Juggling Life, Health, Stress & Entrepreneurship, It’s OK to not be OK…

For the people that do not know who I am, I would like to introduce myself, by telling my story.

About Me:

My name is Renata. I was born in Shrewsbury Shropshire to Polish immigrants. My father was a Polish soldier that came to the UK during WWII and fought with the British Army. When the war was over, Winston Churchill as a thank you granted all veterans and their families permanent residency and built barracks dotted around the UK. My father and his mother were settled in Newton Abbott Devon. Ilford Park Polish Home – GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

After the war had ended my mother came to the UK on holiday to Torquay. When her visa was about to expire the Home Office told my father to marry her and she could stay indefinitely. This hit the headlines “Home Office Proposes Marriage”. I will find the article and post it here at some point.

My parents then went on to have three children with me being the eldest followed by my two brothers.

Both my parents passed away and sadly so did my brother.

Who Am I and what Do I do:

I am a published author, editor, content writer, digital marketer, and website designer. I have many skills under my belt. I first started as a graphic designer when I left college and then set up a photography business. I still love taking photos but because of my social disconnection issues, I am now confined to my home/office.

My Journey

I have documented my journey of my health and my grief in my online health journal.

I won’t say I am 100% OK because that would be a lie, I just soldier on.

“It’s OK to not be OK”.

I find telling my story online more therapeutic than speaking to someone face-to-face or over the phone. I shy away from Zoom, Face Time or Skype calls. I would like to start a podcast or video channel but I am not 100% ok with showing myself at the moment.

I sometimes find it hard to focus and some days I would much rather bury my head in the sand and wait for the world to pass me by, but I know I have a purpose and that is to share my story.

When my autobiography gets published I will leave no stone unturned. Don’t get me wrong I have forgiven every person that has wronged me, knowing that God will forgive me and punish them, yet I want to remind every person that I have not forgotten and never will. It will give me closure and open a new chapter in my life.

After my brother passed away it was the straw that broke the camel’s back. I was devastated beyond comprehension and I wanted someone to tell me everything was going to be OK. Other than my daughter who was only a child then I had no one to whom I could turn. My youngest brother was in the USA and I felt I had no one, that is until this man entered my life.

I had met him on a few occasions before and my first impression, he was an arrogant drunk, I should have listened to my gut feeling but after a few more times of meeting him when he was sober he was charming and funny, no way could I have foreseen what was coming my way.

I should have trusted my intuition but I was desperate for companionship and I remember my late brother’s words that after ten years of being divorced, it was time to start dating and meet someone. How wrong was that advice? I was happy until my brother passed away. Don’t get me wrong both my parents dying hit me hard, but for my brother to die as well I was inconsolable. It was then I needed a shoulder to cry on, a distraction from my sorrow and despair, and for a while, I started to see a light at the end of the tunnel until one day it became dark.

I should have seen the signs but I had never met anyone like that before and was not a psychologist or psychotherapist to know better. I did not know anything about domestic violence or narcissism and had never experienced so much anger and rage in my entire life. I never expected to see it from someone I confided in and was starting to trust.

I could say I was naive, but I was so desperately trying to hang onto hope until it hit home quite literally that the devil can be disguised in sheep’s clothing.

Self Help Therapy

I have since started to rebuild my life one small step at a time but there are always reminders of him even though he is long gone.

An example of this is when I set up his Gmail account many moons ago and because he could not read English he told me to forward his inbox to mine. Most of his mail is sent to the spam folder and I have tried blocking him but it only works if he would send direct messages. I do not want to close my email account as that is where most of my important emails go or drop catch. So the day I started to write this article, I had to unblock him to send him instructions on how to un-forward and delete my email. I did not think I would ever have to interact with him again, I never wanted to speak to him again, let alone cross paths.

Intrusive Thoughts, Fear, Stress & Doubt

How can I move on with my life if I am always looking over my shoulder?

My life has got to the stage where I need to focus on love and empowerment, not only helping myself but also helping others experiencing similar issues as me or people with disabilities. I have developed a site specifically for disabled entrepreneurs.

I am at the stage of my life to learn as much as I can and teach others what I have learned.

Learning To Re-Wire My Subconscious Mind.

I will be focusing on Neuroplasticity, Psychotherapy, Art Therapy, and Writing. I aim to write a few books this year, although I have days that I simply do not want to do anything, and at the time of starting this post was one of those days.

My Business Services

My services will always be available but I need to start focusing on myself and start to love myself again. I was at a point in my life where I hated myself and the world around me. I still avoid human interaction as much as possible. Other than the delivery drivers, workmen, contractors, and couriers I do socialize. I prefer my own company, once bitten twice shy as they say.

My Frustrations

I have daily frustrations and struggles, juggling life and staying positive. I turn to my sites to release the tensions and will have a friendly chat with AI when need be. I aim to integrate my version of AI soon (www.renataai.com)

Schoolgirls were forced to line up to be inspected by a male teacher.

February 24, 2023 / EDITOR / 0 Comments

MSN Headline: Anger as schoolgirls forced to line up as male teacher inspects and measures their skirts (msn.com)

EXPRESS.co.uk Anger as schoolgirls forced to line up as male teacher inspects and measures their skirts | UK | News | Express.co.uk

Citation: Schoolgirls were left in tears after a male teacher inspected their skirts, according to reports. Rainford High School in St Helens has come under fire for enforcing its uniform policy which requires girls to wear knee-length skirts, with many parents and pupils claiming male teachers were involved in the inspection of the skirt length.

My Views: I did not bother making a comment on MSN as they censor what you write and this is what I think about the above article and the personal experience I have had as a schoolgirl and then on as a mother.

The teacher at the school provided he was not taking any photos and had the right to check the length of the skirts as long as he did not take a tape measure out and was physical. If it is the school’s policy that the girl’s uniform should have a knee-length skirt then it should be abided by. Parents are helpless if the skirt leaves home as per the letter but gets rolled up to be on par with fashion. I remember buying my daughter black shoes which had a gold trim and were told to get a new pair. The school refunded me because I could not see it in their terms and conditions.

If parents and school kids are outraged at today’s article on MSN then the next bit will shock readers more.

My own interactions with teachers

When I was in school some 45 years ago there was a PE teacher that would watch the girls have a shower and then would line up the girls against a wall in their towels to inspect their posture as she claimed. For the girls that did not wrap themselves up properly, they would end up going commando. It haunts me to this day and who was I going to complain to at the time? I could not tell my parents as it was embarrassing. I could not tell another teacher as I would be accused of being a snitch. The headteacher was no better as he was arrested for pedophilia according to some sources although researching online I have found one headteacher from that school is not the same one that was head at the time me being there. I can not get a reliable reference to what I have heard so, unfortunately for now it is simply hearsay until I find a source.

Punishment with a cane

Furthermore, I even had punishment by a cane for pulling a prank when I was about 14. I am not saying I was not to blame as the bullies in my class made me put the blotted paper soaked with quill ink on the end of my ruler and flick it which landed on a schoolboy’s arm. I ended up having three whips to my left hand as my right hand was spared for writing. Quill ink is permanent so his school shirt was ruined, no wonder his mother did not like me when I later started dating his brother some four years later.

PE Teacher

The teacher would have retired by now so all I can do is put it in the past, but still, articles such as the one today do bring back uncomfortable memories: Anger as schoolgirls forced to line up as male teacher inspects and measures their skirts | UK | News | Express.co.uk

Losing Loved Ones and Missing Your Old Life

February 21, 2023 / EDITOR

Losing Loved Ones and Missing Your Old Life

Losing a loved one is an experience that can be incredibly difficult to bear. The pain of separation can linger on for months or even years, leaving behind an unfillable void in one’s heart. The process of grieving is complicated and different for every individual, but one thing that is universal is the longing to be with the person who has passed away.

It’s not uncommon for people to experience a strong sense of missing their loved ones after they have passed away. The feeling of emptiness that comes from their absence can be overwhelming and persistent, and sometimes it can feel like nothing will ever be able to fill that void.

Grieving is a natural and necessary process that helps us come to terms with our loss, but missing someone who has passed away can feel like a never-ending process. It’s a painful reminder of what we have lost, and it can be challenging to find comfort or solace in the midst of our grief.

There are many ways to cope with missing a loved one who has passed away. One way is to embrace the memories and cherish the time that was shared. Celebrating the person’s life, passions, and accomplishments can be a way to honor their memory and keep them close to our hearts. Sharing stories, looking at old photographs, and talking about the person can help keep their spirit alive and ease the pain of missing them.

Another way to cope with missing a loved one is to find ways to connect with them in spirit. Some people find comfort in writing letters or talking out loud to their loved ones as if they were still present. Others find solace in practicing mindfulness or meditation, which can help to quiet the mind and focus on the present moment.

For some people, seeking support from a professional can be helpful. A therapist or grief counselor can provide a safe space to process emotions, work through feelings of loss, and offer guidance on coping mechanisms.

In addition to these methods, it’s important to remember that grief is a process and there is no “right” way to deal with missing a loved one who has passed away. It’s okay to feel sad, angry, or even numb at times, and it’s okay to take the time needed to process these emotions. Remember to be kind to yourself and to seek support when needed.

In conclusion, missing a loved one who has passed away is a natural and difficult part of the grieving process. However, losing a loved one through a breakup or divorce can also be traumatic. It’s important to remember that the pain of separation may never fully go away, but there are ways to cope with the pain and honor the memory of the person who has passed. Whether it’s through embracing memories, finding ways to connect in spirit, or seeking support from professionals, there are ways to find comfort and peace amidst the pain.

Inspiration

I watched a film the other day Emilia 2.0 and it made me wonder why we cannot already upload our subconscious minds to AI.

Imagine logging in and being able to connect with the people that have passed away. Imagine having a conversation with someone even if they may not be in the physical form,

Currently, it is not possible to upload the subconscious mind to AI, and it is not clear if this will ever be possible, although the likes of Elon Musk and Neurolink tells me they are already working on it.

I have often wondered if I was to phone my parent’s number would they answer, even though in reality that number was sold the moment it was cut off?

If we can communicate with people all over the world using a small device called a smartphone, imagine if we could communicate with people that have passed on.

The subconscious mind refers to the part of the mind that is not in the conscious awareness of the individual but still influences their thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It is a complex and poorly understood aspect of human psychology, and while there has been much research on the topic, it remains a subject of ongoing study.

On the other hand, AI (Artificial Intelligence) refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines. While AI has made significant strides in recent years, including in areas like image and speech recognition, natural language processing, and decision-making, the technology is still far from being able to fully replicate the workings of the human mind.

At present, it is not clear how the subconscious mind could be uploaded to AI, or even if it is a desirable or ethical pursuit. While some scientists and futurists have speculated about the possibility of creating conscious or sentient machines, these ideas are still largely hypothetical and subject to debate.

In conclusion, while the possibility of uploading the subconscious mind to AI is an interesting idea, it remains in the realm of science fiction at this time, and it is not clear if or when it may become a reality.

Missing My Old Life

I miss my parents and my brother.
I miss the house we all grew up in.
I miss the food my parents made.
I miss the people that I loved and cared about that no longer are in my life, like my mum, dad, my brother, and my ex-husband that passed away.
I miss the feeling of security and stability.
I miss my younger self.
I miss the body that I once had.
I miss being happy.

My Journey

I have this urge to recall and back up every memory I have. This will be a reference for my loved ones once I am no longer an earthly being.

Imagine if there was something out there that could help us record our thoughts. If we cannot record our thoughts and memories we should at least write them down online so that when the time comes we could activate our voices to sync with the information we wish to share.

Imagine writing a biography of your life and converting it to audio and then having AI talk in your voice and answer questions with data from the subconscious mind.

If this was already invented I would gladly log in and chat with my loved ones that have passed away. Even if it was not real it would give me comfort just hearing their voice.

Imagine

Imagine being a spiritual being and being able to go where you wanted to go without boundaries or limitations. If this was possible I would want to meet all my loved ones in the house we once had. I would want to also communicate with the people I left behind.

My Goals

My goals are to find a way to upload all my memories and my subconscious mind and turn myself into iRenata 2.0 For now I will just have to stick to writing my biography and turning it into audio. I aim to do a series of podcasts on different subjects in the near future.

Rebuilding My Life

I am trying to rebuild my life after making some grave mistakes. I am on a path to prosperity and am trying to put all my bad memories aside, although I will share them in the book I am in the through of writing. I will leave no stone unturned and the people that have harmed me in one way or another will have their five minutes of fame. My words cannot be undone once they are published.

I am paving the way to a new life where I will finally find happiness and security, I am a ‘Phoenix Rising’.
