okay... can't seem to resolve;

1. the name in the top bar of the Explorer (does that thing have a name Smile in html you set it with <title> blah </title> where do i set that ? look -almost- everywhere..

(this almost effects the email notifications, for a pm the subject now is "New Private Message at" )

2. (most important) the "top" forum name is missing, before i was able to click on it and see all sub-forums.. now it's gone :]

thanks boys & girls...

In Templates:
...Index Page Templates
......index

here is the top part
<html>
<head>
<title> ...mytext... - {$mybb->settings['bbname']}</title>
{$headerinclude}
 ....and more stuff ...
thanks Gene... one issue resolved.!!
for the most part... at the main screen it works, when i go to a sub-forum it shows "- sub-forum name" it used to say "forum name - sub-forum name"
to make it more clear, i hope...

what's "missing" is (see example) MyBB Community Forums.

How do you know the hacker didn't leave a back door to gain access again?

i guess i don't... but a developer of MyBB looked at some settings of my forum, he did not notice anything, it was a "amateuristic" attack, and i don't believe the guy (i know who it was now) has knowledge to get in without.
Revert your Navigation templates to default and make sure your board name settings isn't blank.

The method used was just logging into an admin's account, setting all the ACP settings to nothing then leaving. Nothing difficult, and nothing really suspicious. Just looked like a case of insecure passwords.

exactly.... i know who it was (an real small "member" syndrome and jealous character) and he has little to no knowledge as you could see in the logs..

THANKS again Tomm.
c'mon Tomm, i know you know the solution.... :}
Well, is your board name settings still blank??
<!-- start: nav_bit -->
<a href="http://everythingberry.net/forum/index.php"></a>

That's the start of the navigation - and considering there is no title tag content either, Matt's suggestion to check the board name setting is probably the first port of call. Have a look in "Configuration" then "General Settings".
