I think what you need to do now is put the forum in maitenance mode and clean it up.

You need to change your password to something like this. T2Mh89hts so that it's not easy to crack. Also make sure you change your email password as well.

Changed passwords.
How do I do the maintenance mode thing? Is there any way to recover all the boards/posts the hacker deleted?

[MeltingButter]

Go to admin panel general settings and put forum in Maintenance Mode.

sorry there is no way to recover the posts.

[bluebutterfly05]

Nvm, I figured out the maintenance mode thing myself, lol.

Is changing passwords the only thing I can do to make sure this doesn't happen again?

[MeltingButter]

No you can't recover the posts. Sorry.
