.entry-meta { display: none; }but still the date is shown in the posts… the post is here:

In reply to: ERROR: Invalid username. Lost your password?Brilliant, Jim – very grateful. So found my wp-config.php file and found that someone (they left a calling card, I won’t credit them with their name!) had got in and changed the dbase name AND password. Once I got in, I used phpmyadmin, found the wp_users file and changed the notification email back to mine. I then went to my main “sitename”/wp-admin login page and asked for a password reset. I got email immediately and I am back in. Now I will carefully go through and change all usernames and passwords of everything I can think of to try and get control back.
Background – I already had long, randomly generated password strings on both the ISP cpanel logins (I use hostpapa – are they vulnerable?), and on wordpress. Does anyone know how these hackers do it? Is it back to the basics of regular password refreshes?
Jim – thanks again!

In reply to: ERROR: Invalid username. Lost your password?hi – this is nearly so useful (as i cannot login suddenly but site is still up and looks fine), except my ever-so-carefully stored username and password for phpmyadmin does not work! Would it be possible to be shown exactly which file I need to edit, using my ISP’s basic file manager?
Thanks – Matthew
