• Question: do I re-install word press or do something else under the following circumstances…

    1. Decided to follow the instructions on
    http://wpgetready.com/2010/12/what-are-you-looking-for-statpress-has-an-answer/ to include statpress. (I’m a complete newbie & someone said this was a good product)

    2. Created a theme – got it all working (had activated it) – didn’t like what I saw. Decided to scrap it.

    3. Deleted the page that had just been created via my new theme through the Word Press admin dashboard.

    4. BUT deleted the theme directory and its contents with my website’s file manager (i.e. didn’t delete through the wordpress dashboard I have no idea why I did this – I’m an idiot!!!)

    5. Went to my blog to see what things looked like – got a white screen – blank for the blog. (http://www.debtfreedomsolutions.net/blog)

    6. Read up on things – and re-created the directory structure of what I had just deleted. Same name of the folder, same 3 files (one was a style sheet, one was an index.php and the third was the code from statpress)

    7. Now the page is no longer blank – it has the text of the index page that is in the re-created theme directory. I’m thinking my word press is using this theme as the default instead of the “real” default (I am still using the twentyeleven theme)

    8. I cannot login to the admin dashboard – there’s no way to get there.

    9. I still have all my files – the info is on my own server – so I know that I could just put things back….if I knew how!

    10. I tried adding a login code found here: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/move-login-form-to-a-page-within-my-site?replies=11

    but it was to the wordpress.org site & it’s an old url – and going to the .org (regardless if it’s new/old) doesn’t help me trying to get to my blog’s login

    11. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
