Default [RESOLVED] Template Changing

How does someone else get into my forum and change my Template?
I am the only one with admin rights, Where is the back door?

Could you please also tell me how to give permission to my guest forum. I thought I ticked all the box's to allow guests to use this part of the forum.

Any Help appreciated.

What do you mean? Has some one changed your templates? Or are you asking how you can change them?

Hi,

Guest posting has been disabled overall; also are you sure no one has access to your admin account?

Sorry for the double, seconds in it

Thanks Edwin, I understand the Guest question.

But Yes, My template has been changed, I think I know who! But no one else has any admin access to my site.
I was told there is a back door by the person who I'm pretty sure changed it.
He might even have a fprum on here somewhere.
So it seems it is possible if you know how!

The only possibility is that he had your log in details and used your account...

Have a look in the AdminCP => Board Logs => View Admin Logs

to see who has been changing things and I think it would be also a good idea to change your pass word...

I'm afraid unless he hacked in somehow, I don't know how it was done, there is nothing in the logs indicating this change! The plot thickens.

Just change your password and you should be fine. Template changes don't go into the ACP log anyway
