We problems with the site because google it is considering the add to cart form insecure and the wp admin as well.

I am pretty sure we don’t have any hacked files even that some ee core files are detected hacked by many antivirus:

/wp-content/plugins/event-espresso-core-reg/core/third_party_libs/dompdf/lib/html5lib/InputStream.php

/wp-content/plugins/event-espresso-core-reg/core/libraries/form_sections/strategies/validation/EE_Email_Validation_Strategy.strategy.php

/wp-content/plugins/event-espresso-core-reg/core/db_models/fields/EE_Email_Field.php

/wp-content/plugins/event-espresso-core-reg/core/db_classes/EE_Import.class.php

/wp-content/plugins/eea-mailchimp/includes/EE_MCI_Controller.class.php

/wp-content/plugins/eea-wp-user-integration/templates/eea-wp-users-registrations-table.template.php

/wp-content/plugins/eea-infusionsoft/xmlrpc-3.0/lib/xmlrpc.inc

The question is if it is anyway to use the form having the wp-admin folder protected.

Thanks,

You’re correct in that the admin-ajax.php file needs to be allowed access on the front end of the website. See also:
