If you have access to log files, you may be able to find out how they hacked it. I once had a phpNuke site that was hacked. I looked through the log files and saw to odd queries. One got user names and encrypted passwords back and then used these credentials to do an update query including a meta refresh that redirected the site to some Turkish site. I ended up blocking IP blocks in Turkey and did some other things to make it harder for a bot to find a typical hole in phpNuke. Do you have WordPress and other software updated on your site? Do you have a strong password?
Yes. Wordpress sites are getting hacked. I faced this problem 3 times in the last 4 months. But didn't found the solution. I am always changing the hostings after the wordpress sites are hacked. If any solution is there for this, please let me know.
Wordpress is a secure platform and the updates are frequent. Poorly written plugins and hacked themes are usually the ones allowing hackers to gain access to your blog.
I have just written a few points for OP here: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=2119684#post15923045 Hope it helps
uploading plugins that aren't in the wordpress.org directory is something to avoid. do the fresh install.. but before it you must have the wp-content folder and the wp-config file backed up. always keep these files in your computer.
before 10 days agao, my wordpress site was hacked. I completely check it and found that my theme index was hacked instead of wp index file. I replace theme and now my site is working well. You also check theme index file and try to fix it.
What do you mean by hacked? Are you running a multisite installation or single? Are you talking about spam registrations? Comments? What exactly is happening?
Most likely the plugins / themes have a backdoor in them. I doubt wordpress can be hacked that easy if it was it would be a 0day exploit but then it would be patched quickly to
Wordpress is not hacked easily. Most times it is an exploit that is hidden in a free theme or bootleg plug in. I have had many people tell me that their site was hacked and that they didn't do anything to cause it, only to find out that they are using a premium theme that they downloaded from a file sharing site that is full of malicious code. I have over 30 Wordpres sites and have built hundreds and none of them have ever been hacked. If you could provide a link and tell us what they problem is, maybe we can help.

Well, some free themes are even more secure than commercial ones, but it can be hard knowing which ones. Also, plugins can often be to blame for unwanted intrusions. Overall, wordpress is pretty good considering how may people are using it.
