Thanks for your help keesiemeijer. I contacted the host after your last post. It was an unrelated error, stopping the site from loading. We had in fact fixed the coding through the FTP efforts we had made earlier in the day. The reason that the site would not load was some error with the database details, which the host fixed for us.

We will try your code above for the action that we were trying to perform, when we have recovered from the shock, horror and stress of the site failure we have experienced today. Our reality check has also caused us to look into Vault Press signup. Thanks again.

Interestingly when trying to access the Wp Admin URL the following error message displays:

Error establishing a database connection
This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t contact the database server at 213.171.193.145. This could mean your host’s database server is down.

?Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
?Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
?Are you sure that the database server is running?
If you’re unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host. If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums.

Although we didn’t touch anything other than the code above.

We downloaded it using FileZilla FTP and Filemanager – through our host, in both attempts we changed the code back to original, from the copy we saved, trying to be safe. However the site does not reappear, nor does the admin?

We will try again using your code, would you have this in addition or replacing part of the orginal code? Thanks for your reply.
