    After recovering from malware hack in November, I’ve been attacked again and this one is the worse. Mysql database hacked. How can we fix this? The WordPress admin and any visit to http://www.lisamattsonwine.com redirects to http://www.hostinger.co.uk, so that means I cannot access my WordPress admin. I paid someone for 8 hours of work and no luck. He has been in web design for 20 years. He has fixed many hacks but just discovered its the mysql database that has been hacked.

    – We stripped the entire server down to bare basics, reinstalled WP 4.4.1 and restored the database and uploaded the original balanced theme zip file
    – We changed every vital password
    – We ran a mysql database backup

    What should we do?

    Here’s what he has done so far:

    Copy and paste error. Please disregard the “here’s what he has done so far.” That’s listed above. And the site is lisamattsonwine.com, not lisamattsonwine.wordpress.com.
