    Hello Hennie,

    I am sorry to hear ur site was hacked, the first thing to try and find out is how it was hacked. If you were running very old version of WordPress or some plugins that might be the cause or it could be something like you have a malware on your computer that is stealing your passwords. It’s important to find out how they got in if you can.

    We don’t use or recommend any security plugins and never have, you are free to try any you want but we feel if you follow guidelines then they are not needed.

    Let us know how you get one.

    Thanks,

    Stiofan
