So I designed a wordpress (v3.9.2) website for my brothers business. The other day when I am trying to show them how to edit the content of the site, neither of us could log in. I thought that I had forgotten my password so I reset my password and when the reset email that came through stated my username as being 'byb'.
This made me think that there was a bug in the version of wordpress that had messed up the usernames making them all 'byb', so I just copied the user table data from my local copy of the site to the server and we carried on.
The next day, I checked the site just to be sure, and was greeted with this screen:
My host is Axxess so I called them to report that we were hacked. They restored the site from the previous days backup and advised me to upgrade my cms. I am now running the latest wordpress (4.0.0)
Today I was notified that no one could log in to edit the site, and upon further investigation I found that all the usernames and passwords have been changed again...
The picture above shows the live site data for my username, and the bottom one shows my local dev database version.
I have emailed Axxess to ask for more assistance, but I would like to know if anyone else has this issue?
