Just an FYI, your site has been cracked – not “hacked”. 🙂
If someone cracked into your site, assuming that this is your own site (not a wordpress.com site), you should first download a dump of all of the WP tables. To do this:
1. Go to the PHPMyAdmin interface that your host has give you.
2. Go to the DB you put WP in.
3. Click “Export”.
4. Choose the tables you want (or if you aren’t sure what tables WP is using, just select all of the tables). If you aren’t seeing an interface to choose which tables you want, choose the option that says “custom”.
5. Click “Go” (or something similar), and you’ll have a backup of your DB in a file (which can be saved to your desktop).
Next, get all of your files. FTP into your site and transfer all of the WP files to your computer.

When you want to get back your themes, copy the theme’s dir from wp-content/themes/ to your new site’s wp-content/themes/.

If you have some pics that you’ve uploaded to your website, search your WP dir for the pics.

When you want to get back something else, look through the DB (hint: the one that ends in “posts” should be the most helpful, as it has both your blog posts and pages).

I tried placing that code at the end of my current require_once section, and it didn’t work for me. Could you tell me what code you used (so that I know the order of everything)?

I found the main problem with the old code – my install was corrupt. I reinstalled WP (this time, I’m sure it’s NOT corrupt.), and the new site that was created told me

Error establishing a database connection

so I re-wrote the code (new code at the bottom). Just like the script before, everything worked, until I tried to view the site (and just like before, it told me it couldn’t connect to the DB). I took a look at the DB, and noticed that all of my other sites had their own tables (in the format of (my prefix)_(site’s ID)_options, (my prefix)_(site’s ID)_posts, etc.), but the site I made with this script didn’t have it’s own tables with it’s ID. So, my problem now is that WP won’t make tables for my new site.
```
<?php
    /* I have omitted the values of $title, $newSitePath, and $email.
     * If my WP installation was at example.com/mystuff and I wanted to make example.com/mystuff/something
     * and I wanted to assign administration rights to xyz@example.com then I'd type in:
     *     $email = 'james@jamescostian.com';
     *     $newSitePath = 'something';
     * I also need to add in a definition for $title. If I wanted to give this site the title "Randomness" then I'd type in:
     *     $title = 'Randomness';
     * This was made for the sub-dir install.
     * If you have the sub-domain install, then go to:
     * wp-admin/network/site-new.php
     * and use it to figure out how to make your own script.
     */
    require_once( 'wp-config.php' );
    require_once( 'wp-includes/ms-blogs.php' );
    require_once( 'wp-includes/functions.php' );
    require_once( 'wp-admin/includes/upgrade.php' );
    require_once( 'wp-includes/ms-functions.php' );
    $domain = strtolower( $domain );
    $email = sanitize_email( $email );
    $newdomain = $current_site->domain;
    $path = $base.$newSitePath.'/';
    $password = 'N/A';
    $user_id = email_exists( $email );
    $wpdb->hide_errors();
    wpmu_create_blog( $newdomain, $path, $title, $user_id, array( 'public' => 1 ), $current_site->id );
    $wpdb->show_errors();
    if ( !is_super_admin( $user_id ) && !get_user_option( 'primary_blog', $user_id ) )
        update_user_option( $user_id, 'primary_blog', $id, true );
?>
```

This doesn’t make much sense to me. I copied ‘n pasted some PHP code (at the bottom) from /wp-admin/network/site-new.php and it worked, without any output. I looked at the network admin interface, and it looked like everything was working. So I try to visit the site, and that’s when I get a 404. Anyone know a work around? Here’s the code (minus some details):
```
<?php
    /* I have omitted the values of $domain, $sPath, $title, and $uuid.
     * For those who don't understand, $domain is the domain of the site (e.g. wordpress.org ),
     * $sPath is the new site's path, $title is for the website's title,
     * and $uuid is the user's ID from the DB. This was made for the sub-dir install. If you have the sub-domain install, then this script is not what you want.
     */
    require_once( 'wp-config.php' );
    require_once( 'wp-includes/ms-blogs.php' );
    require_once( 'wp-includes/functions.php' );
    require_once( 'wp-admin/includes/upgrade.php' );
    require_once( 'wp-includes/ms-functions.php' );
    wpmu_create_blog( $domain, $sPath, $title, intval( $uuid ), array( 'public' => 1 ) );
?>
```
