   I've just moved a site using WP to a new server, using the same domain.

   Somewhere along the way the Admin folder went AWOL, but I downloaded it, and reuploaded it to the new server.

   However, the page is drawing a blank here:

   http://www.learners-guide.co.uk/wp-admin/index.php

   Although I can see the contents of other folder, e.g.:

   http://www.learners-guide.co.uk/wp-admin/images/

   Any ideas what's going on?

   I'd redownload a complete new copy of WP if it was me.

   1. Back your database up.
   2. Make copies in a safe location of your Themes, Uploads and Plugins folders, and your wp-config.php file.
   3. Delete WP
   4. Replace with a complete new install of WP.
   5. Overwrite your new Themes, Uploads and Plugins folders, and the wp-config.php file with the ones you saved earlier.

   Now you have all new core files, and all of your custom files. If it still doesn't work then there is an error in your code somewehre, but we can have a look at that afterwards.

   Don't I need to log in to WP to back up the database though?

   The data seems to be intact somewhere, as everything is still listed on this page correctly:
