Site Hacked? I can’t Login. Now What?

  • I fear that my site has been hacked, and now I can’t get into it, my name and password are denied, and the “reset password” option does not seem to work correctly.

    Here is another post with the same problem, and the problem is that we loop and loop, never being able to login.

    Specifically here is what they describe, and I’ve got the same problem:

    I requested a new password, when i click on the link in the email to reset my password it takes me back to the new password request screen.

    I’m in a loop.

    If I re-enter my user name and email address in the screen for a second time i do not get a second email.

    can anyone give me some pointers?

    Here is the Latest:

    When I login to my site:
    https://www.awakeandarise.org/blog/wp-login.php

    The site redirects to the same login page without any error. The URL address bar redirects to this URL instead:
    https://www.awakeandarise.org/blog/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.awakeandarise.org%2Fblog%2Fwp-admin%2F

    No error information is being shown on any of the shared server’s logs in regards to this. Recently we had to reset the password to my administrator account using PhpMyAdmin + MD5 Encryption because the password reset keys would not validate. I don’t believe that resetting the password was the root cause of my Word Press issues.

    Please let me know if anyone has any suggestions how to bring the site back to a functional state. My database appears to be intact and working as it should.
