Aparently someone was able to exploit the message board and modify the templates. I was able to recover everything but because how the templates worked if you didn't use the "subSilver" theme you got reset to the default theme of the site. There's unfortunately wasn't an easy way to fix this, and didn't affect a lot of users.
These types of exploits don't settle lightly with me. I couldn't find any mention of this on the board software maker's site, so reported it to them. I also reported it to my web host as well. I'm working on a live backup of this so if something like this were to happen again it would take me about a minute to copy a working copy over and have everything back up and running. I'm also going to work on getting a status page going so that if this happens again you'll be able to at least go somewhere and see what's happening.
Again, sorry for any trouble this has caused. Thank you. |
