HELP ME PLEASE!!!

My forum http://www.latinosvet.com/forum was hacked 5 days ago.
The hacker deleted all the threads and posts, chief administrator password was changed. After, one girl is learned a new code of the main admin, and she wanted to do back-up, but the code of back up was changed too. Help me, we are so sad about that! We want our forum back! Sad

Hi,

I don't believe there is any way to solve this problem as obviously your threads and topics have been deleted and that's part of database and I don't think it can be retrieved.

FM forums can't be hacked (or at least so far), so I'm assuming an administrator's account password was found out.

uh, there should be back ups of the whole forum. there for she can restore it. its in the admin settings.

Back up is only for restoration of themes, I believe. But I have never used it so perhaps it is possible

Topics, forums, and posts are database. Here's a link explaining more on database:

https://help.forumotion.com/t6668-forumotion-s-forum-databases

A search in the searchbox brings up many issues such as yours. None (or at least from those I have looked at) are solved. Here's an example, though it's probably not the best, but you can easily find more.

I'm not sure if a "Full Backup" means restoring topics/forums though, so best of luck thumleft

Backs ups do in fact restore everything. You are just limited to amount of backs you can have though. But if requested a pro admin can restore the forum to a later date to their choice.

Yes.. password. Can you tell me?

Password is what you made when you created the site. If you don't remember or forgot it please click the forgot password link in my signature and follow the steps there.
