I will forward this to Leeloo, since you have done a backup now there is no need to worry. Are you able to login normally?

Like in this screenshot.

If you go to my forum you can tell that the colors are messed up because it doesn't match the screenshot. The widgets & Javascript codes management don't show up even though it says in the Admin Panel they're activated and on.

Hello,

It has something to do with your modified templates.

Your widgets are visible when we are using a version of your forum without any modified template. So I suggest that you check them and be very careful with it because, as you can see, the slightest error can cause this kind of disorder.

Thanks !

My forum keeps getting hacked. They just keep coming back.
I keep having to ban their IP address. A hacker keeps trying to get on my account. I already IP banned him once, but he just keeps getting on my account even though he's still IP banned. Crying or Very sad

Nobody should be able to get in your account because I've changed your password. You should be the only one who know it.

The techs were in your Admin Panel through the founder account, are you sure you don't confuse ?

I don't see why the "hacker" would log in your forum without changing anything in it Wink

This same IP address keeps coming back even though it's IP banned.
82.234.132.251
It just came back right now as I'm typing this.
And yes, I'm not confused.

First, you can't ban our IP address, but any other indesirable member can be ban easily.

And then, there's no reason to be hacked. You know, it isn't so easy to hack a forum and above all, it's useless for hackers.
What is usually called "hack" here, on the Support Forum, is just a lack of security of the password or the login details. That's how malicious people can take the control of a forum.

Now, we secure your forum so there's no reason to be hacked again.
And if you have a doubt, feel free to ask for help here because we are here to help you. Wink
