  • Hi,

    I wrote a custom site, entirely using WordPress API. Mostly using GravityForm, CPT and a few styling function.

    No fanciful stuff.

    However the site got it’s wp-config.php deleted and when restored, I saw the index.php was defaced.

    I backtracked and of course had a copy to go back to.

    However, what I want to know is what is the likely reason I got hacked? My host claims my FTP access logs look clean

    Can a WordPress admin user account with a weak password be used to both edit wp-config.php and the templates’ index.php?
