How Does This Happen ? Help Please
 

I am not very tech savy. I have a member that shows about 50 posts edited on different threads with the above exactly. The time limit to edit a post is set to 10 mins. It would be impossible to have edit them all during that same minute - 09:20 AM.


These approx 50 posts were all made on June 22, 2012. And why does it say lasted edited Yesterday when it should say -

Wondering if the DB could have been compromised and some query was executed ? Is there anything I can check ? I checked the control panel and moderator panels and did not find any unusual activity.

The time limit for editing a post has nothing to do with whether you can edit several posts within one minute. You could open several posts to edit into different tabs, changed them, then gone through and clicked the save button on them all and you would get the same time stamp on them all.

I did not think you could have so many tabs open to accomplish this as there were 50+ posts that were edited with the same time stamp.

Do you have access to your web server logs? Maybe you can check the logs around that time and see what was going on.

Where would the web server logs be located. ?

To be honest, I don't know. I guess it depends on your hosting situation. I'm not even sure if every hosting plan allows access to those logs. I suppose you could ask your host if you have access.
