    I've found the GoDaddy server name and entered it into my wp-config.php file. When I attempt to run wp-admin it gives an error saying it cannot contact a server name different than what is listed in the GoDaddy MySQL cpanel.

    No one interested in helping me get wordpress running on a GoDaddy hosted site? I get a blank screen when I now go to my index page and no function within wordpress with load or work. sigh.

    Edit your wp-config.php file to point to the right server name (that is the one in MySQL in Cpanel).

    GoDaddy recently changed everyone's DBs. Which sucks.

    This is really bizzar now. I got mad and deleted the db in MySQL and now it is working on my site.

    Unfortunately, the blog page has replaced by homepage.

    Now do you know how I get the blog page to it's own page and get my index page back?
