  Hi my site was hacked so that it redirected to somewhere.
  I was able to update through Installatron and my site is operational, but wp-admin still re-directs to this spam-site.

  How could I gain access to the wp-admin?

  My WP version is 5.1.1
  The Installatron update could not update the WP version for some reason.
  It “updates” to 5.1.1 even when I’ve selected to update to 5.1.8

  Hi there,

  Can you please confirm the site address?

  I think, your site is using the WordPress.org platform.

  This forum is not the right place to get help related to Org sites. The main role of this forum is the help the users with the issues related to the .com sites.

  You can also post your question in the WordPress.org forum to get help on your issue. Here is the link for the same:

  WordPress.org and WordPress.com are two different platforms. For more information on both the platform please refer to the link below: https://wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Hope this help

  Thank you for your reply.

  My site is at ksjt.fi
  So the ksjt.fi/wp-admin/ wont work it redirects to somewhere.

  The whole site did it before I updated through Installatron.
  Now just the wp-admin
