  Hello, I got hacked and cannot do anything on the wordpress website. It says it’s forbidden. We use media temple to host this site as well as bettercountryfarms.com and some others. How can I recover my site?

  WP.com: Unknown
  Jetpack: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)

  Sorry to hear it! I recommend getting in touch with your host to ask about backups, then secure your site so it’s safe. Here’s a good how-to article:

  Jetpack

  Going forward, these forums are primarily for sites that use our free-tier hosting. We’re a little different from the WordPress software itself:

  You’ll want to create an account at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/ so you’ll have access to the correct community for your site. Or, you’d be welcome to host here; your managed hosting plan would get direct support, security, etc. Let us know if you have questions!
