I recently heard that my wordpress instalation may have been hacked. I received a comment telling me there where problems and after a closer look found base 64 code on most php files. Since I took everything down and re-upload fresh instalations of everything, but I don't know what of the former infected files backed up can be salvaged.
Or how?
Can those file be cleaned from the base 64 code? And, it's that it? Can I re upload the database tables?
What is that I have to look for if they can be cleaned? And what about the xml file wordpress backup tool?
I looked at it and it's also full with nonsense comments that seem to come from approved messages I've obviouly never did approve.
Can some be salvaged?
What can I use from the infected backUps?
Can photos be infected?
...
Thank you.
