    Default Lost Categories

    hello all

    were are my cats/sub cats/products kept?

    I have had been hacked, all my own fault dint change the CMD!!!!

    I keep back ups and have tried to reinstall i can get into the admin section but not the main site (but that's another problem)

    When I'm in the admin i cannot see any cats etc,

    were are they stored (in the files) as i want to check my back up files to be sure they are there before i restart 4 months work.

    I have checked my phpAdmin and there not there but that's no surprise as they messed it up beyond any fix so i had to reset it to the default setting from my Host so i am hoping i have them here in my backed up files.

    You help is needed and will be very appreciated

    Andrew

    Alll of your products and settings are stored in the MYSQL database not in flat files.
    Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

    Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

    Thanks Kim.

    I thought so much.

    Just a little advice to other Zenners always change your CMD's back to 644 or 444 on all your top files to stop these Muppet's destroying all your hard work.

    Gutted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
