One thing that happened in the incident…all my pages were converted into posts. Yes, it sounds weird, but that is what happened. FYI in case someone else gets hit by this.
Happened to me twice this last weekend. Both blogs were hosted on the same account. Separate wp_options tables.
I had one person register as a new admin user. He is a regular, legit, honest, trusted blog reader. As far as I can tell, he went to my blog (AFTER it was down/damaged), saw the log in box, got confused (probably not reading the text) and created his own account. After I fixed the blog, I deleted him as a user/Admin. Thus…I’m 99.9% sure that the new Admin I could see on my blog wasn’t a “hacker” that destroyed my wp_options table.
If there was a hacker…it must have been someone else. 😉
