Your Blog Was Hacked: What To Do?

Your blog was hacked: what to do?

If you see weird pics of ladies with dubious links posted on your blog out of the blue, here’s a step by step way of stopping this and preventing it from happening again that I think might work.

Important : this only works if you can still access your blog!

Changing your password is important, but it won’t do you any good if your hacker still has an opened session on your blog and can still access it. So the first thing you wanna do is close your hacker’s session.

For that you need to go in your blog’s settings:

On the new page opened, scroll all the way down. There, you can see something called “Active Sessions“. The first and oldest one (”current session” in green) should be yours, the new one should be the hacker’s session. To close your hacker’s session, click the gray X next to it.

Now that their session is closed, they can’t access your blog anymore unless they enter the password again.

So don’t lose time, go all the way back up and change your password immediately. Make also sure your hacker didn’t change your email address.

Now you should be safe from your hacker. But it won’t prevent you from getting hacked again.

If you really want to be safe from hackers, you should turn on the “Two-factor authentification” option (on the same page).

It requires you to enter your phone number, which is a bummer. But if it’s turned on, everytime you wanna log on (so not if your session is already opened, but only if you log off and try to log on again), it will send a code on your phone that you’ll have to enter (in addition to having a password).

That way if someone tries to hack you again, even if they get your password right, they won’t be able to enter your blog without having that code.

There it is. I hope it will help some of you, since I see more and more people noticing blogs being hacked

Please Help me Escape my Homophobic Parents

Hi everyone, so things haven’t been going well in my personal life. My parents found out that I’m attracted to the same gender and all they’ve been doing since is yelling at me about how wrong it is and all that kinda bullshit. It’s been going on for a couple months now and it’s getting worse. I don’t want to go into details, but my mom is starting to get forceful. I get so anxious about being around my parents now that it’s starting to harm my health. I want to move in with my gf, but I can’t get my parents’ help to pay for some of the cost, and it’s going to cost me around $1,600-$2,000 usd for the move and for my flight bc she lives outside my state. I’ve been trying to earn money through commissions and they have helped, but I’m not making enough. I don’t have a job, so I’ve only been able to earn money through commissions. I don’t even own half the amount of money that I need to move. I hate to ask for money like this but please, I really need help. I would appreciate if anyone could commission me, or donate money to my Ko-Fi or to my PayPal. If you can’t afford to spare any money, then please share this. I would greatly appreciate any support!

Thank you for reading!!
