I moved my wp directory. now the entire site is broken!

Help. I’ve been using WordPress for a long time now but I’ve done something really bad.

My web site url is http://www.robertfancher.com – that’s me. my personal site.
Now, when you access it, there’s a standard Godaddy image “Future home of something cool”

Last night I was messing around with Godaddy hosting tools. I decided to move the directory of wordpress to a new folder. I moved everything to /wordpress_rf/ after the main root folder.

so now, my web site resides at http://www.robertfancher.com/wordpress_rf

two problems. In the new web site url, the site’s main index page loads (albeit without most of the images) but when you click on anything , there’s an error message waiting for you.

seceond, .. I can’t use the Godaddy hosting tools to move everything back to the root directory. Godaddy tells me that the root directory already has something installed. This is what I want to do, ultimately. I need to restore my website from /wordpress_rf back to http://www.robertfancher.com/ root main directory.

The good news is that my Wp-admin login still works and I can see all of the pages and the post. All of my images are missing though. I see broken image links in place of hundreds of images that were sorted into galleries using the Photocrati plugin. This is scary. I can see the images on my FTP login – they’re still there. they are in the new directory. but they aren’t registering with my wordpress login or with the web site.

I’ve been reading about options. From the most simple, just going to Settings>General and choosing “change wordpress url” to the more complex (like editing the database) which I have never done before. but at this point I need to do something because there was so much content and this site had a lot of pages and posts that I don’t know how to replace.

Right now I am backing up 100% of the files using my FTP browser. I backed up the database using Godaddy tools and. It replaced the older database from December that had the whole site as it was in the root folder. Now, the database that is backed up is with the new url. the one that needs to be changed. I’m afraid that was the worst part.

How bad is this? Is it possible for me to change everything back to how it was before? Thanks for any tips or suggestions. I’ll be checking in here again soon.
