Tim kindly pointed out that our blog had been hacked – lots of the posts contain a whole load of hidden links to other sites at the end of the post.
Anyway, it has been running on a very old version (2.0 – ooopps!) for much to long (kept meaning to sort out another template to go with the upgrade) so this inspired a quick upgrade (not so quick, some odd problem with the config.php file seemed to be causing blank screens – spent much too much time sorting that out).
There were various issues with the old one (which continued even after I moved the install from the old host) so I did a clean install of 2.6.1 rather upgarde over the old one – hence the reversion to the default template. Think I might just dump a few ok looking ones in here and play around with them on on off.
The spam links are still in most of the posts – will ponder easiest way to remove them. Hoping that it’s recent and so I can revert to a recent backup.
Tim says do you want some help? He’s quite familiar with stripping garbage out of databases.
Might do, I’m going to check the database backups first (we have daily ones), if a recent one is clean it’s probably easiest to just use that and reinstate the most recent posts etc.
all the links buggered order
also silly links at the top and my comment being moderated
ooh my word, hope you can find the old template somewhere! I’ve got WP automatic upgrade plugin running (and so far done two upgrades seamlessly – the latest while on holiday here! so very happy with it!) if you’re interested …
Actually, the old template is a cobbled mess, from when I upgraded it ages ago and it broke I was never happy with it. i might investigate the auto upgrade plugin
Nice template
Especially now like this comment box!
I’m sure I had this one once. I like it too, anyway
you did sarat, i thought of you as soon as chris put it up. i think we need to further bean the top. i do like the simplicity of a white background [so old fashioned!]
Sarah!
actually, i was wondering if we could do something like topslice this photo – shame there is only flowers and not an actual bean in there, but i guess our girls are still at flower stage…

Wondering why it keeps on insisting on putting H’s comments into moderation though.
Don’t like the way the comments are pushed down below the sidebar though.
like the gravatar alison! one of my comments moderated away due a link no doubt
