Edited to Add: Things appear to be back up and running with my blog. It has been a scary and stressful 24 hours but it appears I was able to get all my data and posts back.
Let’s talk about more fun things, like Baking Rules, my last post that occurred moments before the fiasco.
Or the Manna Bread Giveaway I started
———————————————————————
My blog was hacked about an hour ago. I have emails out to a few different people to try to get it restored, asap.
1000+ blog posts spanning a few years are all missing. Every single recipe I have ever written, gone.
Every single picture of Skylar that I do not have backed up any other way and is solely in the form of blog posts, gone.
The posts in drafts that I had pre-written, i.e. recipes, thoughts, photography, notes from my life, are also missing.
The stress that I am feeling right now is beyond overwhelming. Years of work has just gone missing.
In other matters, my credit card was also hacked today.
It has not been a good day.
Your patience is appreciated while I try to repair my blog. I am at the mercy of others to get back to me because I have absolutely no idea how to proceed on my own.
The one good thing is that I have been doing monthly blog backups and so maybe, just maybe, all is not lost. I don’t know yet…
So glad to see (and hear) that your blog is back up and everything is restored. Now, take some time to go outside and relax :) You deserve it!
Oh my goodness I am SO sorry to read this terrible news :( I sincerely hope you are able to get everyt is am still able to pull up all of your old posts, recipes, etc. It is all still showing up for me. (((BIG HUG)))
HUGS to you today, Averie. I am so sorry to hear this, I cannot imagine the stress you feel. Just remember to take some time for you to relax and remember all the good in your life…so hard to do when you’re stress is maxed out!
I guess this also explains why I tried to post a comment to your Baking post early this morning and couldn’t get to your site from Google Reader. I’m just so sorry!
Oh no! I am happy that things are getting back in order, but it is so awful that people do such things! I hope that everything will be in place again soon!
I’m so sorry to hear this Averie!! I know this will be a lot of work, but hopefully all can be restored. **Hugs!**
So sorry you’re having to deal with this Averie. It seems to be working now, but hopefully it’s all working on your end too!
Oh no! I hope your site gets fixed soon, along with your credit card issues. I’m so sorry to hear about your troubles =/
Good luck!!
I had this happen a few months ago and used a great company to restore everything from backups that I had, they cleaned my entire site of malicious code. Let me know if you need their name, they were a lifesaver!
What a shitty day for you Averie, sorry to hear about the blog and hope you get the credit card sorted out. So annoying, hope you get it all sorted it out. Hugs to you.
Oh my gosh! I hope it gets fixed, quickly. I can still see your posts and recipes, fingers crossed and sending good vibes your way
Oh Averie…I am SO sorry…my heart dropped as I read this :-(
I can’t even imagine how your feeling right now, I’m SO sorry to hear this!
OH NO I’m SO sorry this happened to you! :( I can’t imagine what that feels like. I don’t know if it means anything but I can still see your past posts and your recipes and everything. Hope all is well and back to normal soon!
Wow, Averie I am so sorry! That is so unfortunate and I hope you can find a way to get those things back somehow. You take your time getting back to normal. We’ll be here waiting.
Best of luck <3
OMG, I’m so sorry to hear this!
