Thanks for the tip but it couldn’t find anything.

I did ask the provider if there were any reasons that this from their side could of happened before I started this thread. They couldn’t give me any and couldn’t find any of my new content.

I know I didn’t delete it all because I worked on 4 or 5 pages in one day and read them all at the end. I could have maybe deleted 1 by accident after this but but not all 5. Also I would have had to separately delete the images out of the media library.

How can I test if it has been hacked?

Thanks this would be helpful but I already have the content from the last backup still in the site and a little bit after that so I would lose a bit of content if I would restore it.

I just forgot to do a backup of the whole day I worked on the site 2 days after I did the last backup and that’s the only information that I’m missing. The rest is still there.

Lesson learned always backup every bit of info that’s important.

Its just not very reassuring that it can all disappear for no apparent reason.

Yes I made a backup 2 days before with the plugin UpdraftPlus.

Hi Lisa, thanks for your reply. With “word press file” I mean that the domain name has /wp on the end so the public cant see it till your ready to make it accessible. Sorry I’m a real beginner and I’m probably not using the right term for this. For example I’m still using https://www.yourdomainname.com/wp instead of https://www.yourdomainname.com

I explained this to my provider and they looked for some of the images I had uploaded and couldn’t find any.

Hi Steve thanks for your reply. I checked what you suggested and they are not there at all.
