    I was updating my wordpress and there was a page in the dashboard where I could choose the domain it pointed to, I typed in, http://www.emilygaston.com/index.php before I realized it was already there and before I could change it, it automatically updated it. Now my admin.php file is messed up and although I can view my blog, I can't login to anything to correct this and gain access to my login page! Yikes, I tried deleting the wp-admin/setup-config.php file to reinstall it, but that didn't work. I am a newbie and I don't know how to fix this!
    If someone could view my blog and help me out, that would be great!
    http://www.emilygaston.com/index.php and yes, you have to type the .php, because there is an index page that remains static prior to that.

    The two URI Options in the admin > Options > Genral can NOT be ended with a filename. Only a directory name.

    To fix the mess you created:
