how could it even do that?
ftp to the plugins folder and delete that particular plugin
check site
The folders are all gone. There are no folders anymore. I don’t really know. I did not create the two files the plugin asked for so I’m wondering if it has something to do with “reading” and “writing” over top of everything somehow? I don’t know. I hit the “create sitemap” button and it just sat and sat for a while. Finally I stopped it. Then I went and tried to create those files it asked for (By the way, do you just create those in WordPad or some text editor??) and tried again. It didn’t work and everything was gone.
I still don’t think the plugin could do that.
Those files are created when you click on the configuration settings in the plugin admin – you don’t have to manually create them.
Ok – as for the folders gone. You still have your site – you’re ok.
If you are double sure the files and folders are gone, simply install a fresh wordpress to your site. Also, upload the theme you were using and also the plugins.
Now in your wp-config.php, input your database details (the db you are currently using). Do not run the installer.
Connect to site now with browser. Should be back in business.
Thanks for your help. I had to reinstall the whole thing and set it all up again. Fortunately it didn’t take too, too long. I don’t know what happened. But thank you!
