 * I’ve just installed WP.org and uploaded all the files to my hosting site via 
   FTP (i did this via the Zacky Tools Installer so all the WP files were installed
   automatically). I followed SiteGround on how to do this, but when I go to my 
   site and put /WP-Admin on the end nothing happens. How can I access my Admin 
   Dashboard? I skipped the bit where I had to put in the database details in the
   wp-config.php file as I’d already done this, so I never got to the bit where 
   I provided WP with my database connection details so I never got to the bit where
   you press the ‘run install’ button. Using the installer above, the files were
   not put into the public_html folder, could this be the problem?
