Restores hacked wordpress

Sometimes hackers just inject mySQL code into the Wordpress database by running some scripts. Here is the quick restore method for hacked wordpress (mySQL injected).

Login to your cPanel, and then goto PHPmyAdmin. Choose the wordpress database and then find the table named "wp-options" Inside the table, find following two fields/columns:
  1. blogname
    • Empty it or edit it with your own text.
  1. widget_text
    • Just Empty it and save the changes.
That is all.

Important: Update your wordpress to latest version.
