Hacked website dangerous?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello, last week i add wopoforo Forum for my website. I Have open rigistration and one day from 2 members show 199 members. I Find that all the members are fake and maybe hacked my website. After that, i received many comments for approval. Of course i backup all my website, delete it, installed again the wordpress and now all good. I have add also protected directories with password, and also anti spam and firewall. But when i search my website in Google i found those members with my website name in other wopo forums. Of course when someone clicked in the url said no page found. But i want to ask is it dangerous? And why my url showed in another wopo forums? Thank you for your time

  • Hi there!

    Are you talking about wearecarmaniacs.com? If so, I’m afraid that your site is not hosted with WordPress.com. It is a site using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted elsewhere.

    Because WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two entirely separate entities, we cannot access files or data for sites that are hosted elsewhere, we can only assist with sites that are hosted on our servers. You can read more about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com here:
    https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/.

    I’d suggest reaching out directly to the plugin developers for more information but you can also look for help at the community forums here: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/.

    http://wordpress.org/support/ is a great resource for sites using the open-source WordPress.org software.
