Hey everyone, I need to hack into a website with the intention of shutting it down. I work for a start up and the person that set up the website (wordpress) put some crazy shit on it and went rouge and they were the only admin set up for the site. I need to gain access and then shut it down. Please help.

Install gentoo.

Change the password hash in the database. Google it. If you don't have access to the server or database then you don't work at the company and can gtfo Tyrone.
Install linux,
sudo su
mkdir <nameofwebsite>
cd <newfolder>
sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root /
should dump all the passwords for the site. Suprised wordpress haven't fixed this yet
Some standard makeup wipes should be able to deal with rouge pretty easily desu.

Yeah. This will work even with newer Wordpress versions.

Thank you for being so helpful, but im going to need you to break it down for me a little more. Should I install Kali linux? Or some other one? In order for me to be able to enter the admin site i need username (or email) and password. I dont have access to the email of the person who set this up.

Op they're trolling you. You need access to the server running the site. You then can change the admin password in the database. If you don't have access to the server then contact the hosting provider for help. They can probably help you reset the admin password in the database if it's a good hosting company.

Gentoo is the best option for that, but you can really use any distro. (With gentoo you have higher chances of success) But really it doesnt mazzer what you use, as long as it is a linux distro.
