Website after hack

[curls]

Slightly off topic, but maybe not - I deleted cookies and emptied my cache and the whole of my internet activity (not just here) has speeded up to instantaneous!!  Impressive or what!  Is this something I should be doing periodically anyway regardless of obvious problems?  Sorry if this sound incredibly stupid, but I'm trying to learn!

Thank you Souza and Bravo!  :smiley_abuv:

Hello Souza,
I'm a little confused. I did delete the Cookies and the Cache of today. But still it is the same, both adress are redirecting me to other sites.
I can only use this Forum when I access it under "Community". Or have I to delete all Cookies and the whole Cache? Do I need a new Password
for my account than? Sorry for my Questions, but I m not such technical Fox like you. At least I wanted to thank you for your hard work, you are
really incredible.

Much Peace and Love to everyone.

You should delete all cookies and empty your complete cache. You won't need a new password, you only have to log in again.

Thank you Souza

Portal is fixed.

Souza....you're brilliant.  And really really appreciated.

Souza I have posting issues. I just now wanted to make a post (text + videos) but it doesn't work properly as my post is deleted almost completely when I hit "post". Only the first line remains. I don't know if there is something specific to do? Thank you.

That has something to do with special characters. Go to the portal, then select the language 'english utf-8' in the profile block on the left. You should be able to post again after that.

@Sou I have a question: the ones who hacked the site were able to see the private messages between members?

No, but I wouldn't send important stuff through pm on here anyway, it would be better to use email for that.

Anyway, this hacker just put virusses in the code of the site and didn't hack any of the databases.

Yes, portal works fine  :icon_razz:
But "Most recent posts" does not seem to update. Only "Recent updated topics".

Tried uploading it again and says it was successful but no dice.

Thanks for posting the help site, because it's much faster for me as well.

Andrea, I tried different things a bunch of times before my avatar took.
What worked is I put my pic choice on our forum image uploader.

I'll try that, thanks MJonmind.  Do I have to set the pixel size? Do you know the max size?

110*110 px

The recent posts are fixed as well.
