I was using the latest WETA rom without any issues and decided to try to get Magisk working. I kept getting Error 1 when I tried installing Magisk so I tried to flash a boot img to make it work. I flashed the boot img then magisk without error but when I tried to boot I've been stuck on the LG logo.

What do I do?! I really don't want to lose my data on my internal storage.

Latest and weta rom is a contradiction, weta has been abandoned for a long long time. anyhow reflash the weta rom zip in twrp.

What boot.img did you flash anyway? That might help further. In the meantime try flashing a different kernel, like mk2000.
i flashed the one here

I have a nandroid recovery with the data and system partitions but it wont boot and stays stuck on logo.

can you get into download mode or twrp?

If using twrp recovery using a full rom and make sure the zip for both system and boot match, make a full backup of your data using twrp.

If using download mode, you can flash a full kdz for your phone phone most likely losing root and twrp recovery. And this method will most likely wipe your data partition.

and whatever you do do not touch or modify the aboot partition.
