I’m not familiar with wordpress. I build my sites other ways, this site was done before I started here. Thank you for help. I’ll login to the control panel through my host. * [lisa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/contentiskey/) * (@contentiskey) * [7 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/website-issues-6/#post-11041919) * -The terms “backend”, WordPress Dashboard and WP-Admin are often used to refer to same thing. -File manager and database area things that you can access by logging in to your webhosting account (sometimes referred to as webhosting cpanel or control panel) * [wp-muhkiainen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/toppahattu/) * (@toppahattu) * [7 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/website-issues-6/#post-11043707) * Actually your site can be ok, but someone has made a redirection via your host server dashboard, so login into your host and see if the is a redirection. * This can happen if you use autologin (remember passwords) in your browser, and someone can use that option and hack your passwords. * Thread Starter [hillsideornamentals](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hillsideornamentals/) * (@hillsideornamentals) * [7 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/website-issues-6/#post-11045306) * I figured out the problem, The previous IT person was fired because she didn’t show up to work. So she logged into the cpanel of the host the day after they hired me and changed a few files so it would redirect to the new company’s website she just got hired at. I’m now in the process of fixing it. * Thread Starter [hillsideornamentals](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hillsideornamentals/) * (@hillsideornamentals) * [7 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/website-issues-6/#post-11046192) * i do need a little more assistance, I got the website restored to a previous date but my wordpress doesn’t seem to connect to my host properly? I’m using a question because after restoring to only 5 days ago my wordpress is acting like its a new install. If I go to my hosts filemanager I can see all my photos, and other vital data but when I go into the dashboard of my wordpress all the data isn’t there.
