Hello Billmh,

Sorry for the problems with the images. The permalinks needed to be reset in order to help get your posts/pages to re-appear. This was done for you, so your links to the pages and posts are working at this point. However, the pages and posts are not showing a lot of the images. The problem seems to be related to a plugin. You will need to revisit the pages and either replace the content or re-install the missing plugin that will allow the existing code in the posts and pages to be recognized. Restoring the site from a hack may unfortunately involve these steps in order to recover possible lost content or links within the database. If you check your Media Library, you should see all of the images that were saved in the contents folder of your WordPress installation.

I hope this helps to answer your question, please let us know if you require any further assistance.

Regards,
Arnel C.
