Tried moving WordPress, big problems
-
Hi guys,
If any one can help me with this it would be much appreciated:
1) I designed and set up a website for someone on WordPress on my server which was finished and ready to move to his hosting server
2) Using an FTP client, I pulled all the files off from my hosting server onto my PC as a backup
3) As instructed, I logged in and changed the urls in WordPress, Settings, General. I also uploaded the WordPress folder to the guy’s server. I generally fumbled around not knowing what the hell I was doing. Got stuck, couldn’t log in to my original WordPress installation. Panicked. Decided to try and get back to where I started from.
4) In an attempt to restore the status quo, I used FTP to upload the original files back onto the original server and now all the CSS and content has disappeared. HELP!!!
5) I can’t log in to change the urls back and the guy’s website now looks like this:

Cheers
