Was My Blog Hacked?

Got a shock when I visited this blog in the morning and found a parse error in my wp-config.php file. As far as I can remember, the last day that I edited it was when I was upgrading to WordPress 2.5. Since then 3 days had past and nothing had happened, till today. :S

It was just weird. When I opened up the wp-config.php, the last few lines were incomplete.

define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE

Well I simply copied from the backed up files that I had and it is working file now.

define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__).'/');
require_once(ABSPATH.'wp-settings.php');
?>

What’s worrying me is the integrity of my blog. :(

Was it hacked?
Were my credentials stolen?

Anyone with similar experience before?

Upgraded To WordPress 2.5!

Well I finally upgraded my blog from the previous v2.1.3 to the latest v2.5 after procrastinating for so long. Was definitely a daunting experience, but I’m glad I went through it nonetheless. :)

For users like me, who are hosting your blog on GoDaddy, and are wondering if you can upgrade the way regular users upgrade, the answer is YES! ;) I first installed WordPress about a year ago through Go Daddy Hosting Connection, and to upgrade, you don’t have to go through the same site again.

Follow the simple instructions here, which I did, and you should be good to go! :D

At the moment though, several of my plugins are either acting weird, or have failed totally (especially the wp-table plugin, which caused a fatal error. :( ). Guess I’ll just have to make do with it for the moment.

At least my blog is reborn! haha..
