Blog disappeared

Blog has disappeared online. I can only see my blog by accessing the FTP files and clicking on “view”. I can see all the pages this way except the “dashboard” and “View Site”.

This occured after I tried following the directions for “Giving WordPress its Own Directory While Leaving Your Blog in the Root Directory.” I tried following this step-by-step process, making a copy the original “index.php file and noting my steps, just in case it didn’t work so I could reverse the process. It didn’t work because I never could find the .htaccess files, perhaps because I am using Yahoo Small Business FTP. So, then I reversed my steps, re-pasting the original text back into the index php file & moving this index.php file back into the “blog” subdirectory. Also, I then changed the “General Options” via my FTP files, changing my “Blog address” back to the default; so once again it reads the same as the “WordPress address.” So, everything should be as it was before I messed with it.

However, now my blog is no longer accessible online, only by viewing the files directly via my FTP files.

I do not understand all the terms but can follow simple directions.

Please help. : ) Thanks!!!! Mellilah

I’m using WordPress 2.3.3
