I have stumbled in to a silly situation. I had a domain on bluehost, but decided to get a new one. I bought the new one, instaled wordpress on it and ... suddenly, my first domain looks exacly as blank as the new one, when i change something in the new one, it changes in the old one as well. What the hell have i done? Please help.. Plus, i think i have added my new web page on the same label as the old one in cute ftp. Is this a problem?
Ps. Damn, I bet its a funny thing for you to read. I feel like an idiot.. >.>

Check your wp-config.php file on the new install. Sounds like you're re-using the old database to populate the new blog.

Posted 2 years ago #You may have installed the new installation right over top of the old installation, in which case, your old database should still be there (Which really holds all your most important content.)
If you don't know what your old database settings are, you can create a new database user for your database and update your wp-config.php file to match the correct database, username, and password or, if you don't have a backup, Bluehost might have one that they can restore your wp-config.php from or, depending on the backup date(if there is one), you can restore the whole thing and redo the new installation in the correct location this time.
