    RE: version... I THOUGHT I had 2.3, but it says I have 2.1.2, ??

    Here's my problem, & I can't find ANYthing about this when I google it OR search for it here...

    When I make a post, everything looks fine when I immediately view site. If I log out & check, the post content is gone. It's as if I created a title, but didn't add anything to the "body" of the post. Even clicking "read more" doesn't show anything.

    When I log back in and look, there will be this <u style=display:none> code with a TON of links that I've never heard of.... I can delete these and everything would be fine... until now.

    Now, even after deleting these junk links, they will be there later. This currently appears for my very top post and quite a few of the ones at the bottom of the page, only those "posts" don't even show titles, just the theme's post 'footer' bar.

    Can someone PLEASE help me w/this? I am NOT tech-savvy enough to figure out what to do!

    Thanks VERY much!!

    addendum... I've had WP for a few years now, this last version for close to two years (I know, I'm terrified of change (or rather, messing stuff up) so I don't update WP unless someone guides me thru & the techie friends who used to help me are no longer online. :(

    Just fyi, in case anyone thinks this has always been a problem. It hasn't. However it HAS been going on for several months already.

    PUH-LEEEEZE help me???

    Bump after 30 minutes?

    Deactive all plugins, switch to the default theme, and see if this still happens. If not you can begin reactivating 1 by 1 to isolate the problem.

    Otherwise, I think you might be hacked.

    ...which is to be expected on older versions that have documented exploits.

    If you're worried, try it locally first.
