    Hello,

    Just now, one of my admins just deleted all of my forum and hacked the site. He then change the forum address to wrwrestlingnet.3forum.biz which had no backup files. The original one that had the backup was wrwrestling.net . How can I switch to original one and back up my website to previous day. Please I have over 50,000 members and alot of them are active. Its' urgent please thank you. one of the top website in forumotion.

    When you change your old domain to a custom domain, all that essentially changes is the URL. That`s why you can still access the forums through both links. Now, I have reasons to believe that the forum backup is still there.

    Go to your Admin Panel, go to General. Now, click on "Security". You should see the "Automatic daily forum backup" thingy. Click on the Link "Click here to manage your backup". Enter your Founder Profile info and you have your forums back. If this is not the case and this does not work for you, I apologize then. Would you mind giving me the link to the forums?

    Also, I would suggest for you, in the future, not to give administration access to anyone.

    I am curious. I might be mistaken but as far as I know, only the founder can change the forum custom domain back to the old one. From the way you talk, I have deducted that YOU are the forum founder. So, say, how come this person done this? Are you implying that he/she hacked your founder profile in order to gain access to this "Founder Restricted" option? Of course, I might be wrong. If so, feel free to correct me.

    Website name: http://wrwrestling.net
    Original Username: http://wrwrestlingnet.3forum.biz

    He didn't log in with my username and I am the Founder.

    I don`t think he messed the domain. I can still access the forums via both links. Try to do the Backup thing I mentioned in my previous post. If that does not work, you might want to ask some help from one of the mods.
