   I installed a new theme and got "If this file were writable you could edit it." So I came here and searched. I followed the directions to change permissions to 666. Now my blog is gone. I can't get it at all.

   I went into the site through Dreamweaver to see if I could save my posts and start a new blog. I don't see them. Where are the posts stored?

   the blog was at heartofwisdom.com/robinsnest

   I assumed I would find the posts under heartofwisdom.com/robinsnest/wp-content

   Any help appreciated

   posts are stored in a mysql database. they are NOT stored inside any files that are web accessible to you.

   Undo whatever you did.
