 * I have been helped to set up a website by a friend using WordPress, which is 
   hosted by a 3rd Party company – [http://www.wharfedalewildlifephotography.co.uk](http://www.wharfedalewildlifephotography.co.uk)
 * I came to update it the other day & it seems that the website has disappeared.
   On any PC or mobile device we get screens asking us to install WordPress.
 * I haven’t done anything to delete the website (as far as I know) & I’m not sure
   it’s possible to do this accidently.
 * I’ve posted this under a new user ID as I can’t get my original one (rgreenwood)
   to work. It’s like my original existence has been wiped from the WordPress universe!!!
 * Thanks in advance,
 * Richard

 * Hi Richard,
 * It seems that you have no wordpress installation present on your hosting account.
 * Either the database got deleted or there is a missconfiguration in your wp setup.

 * Thanks for the speedy reply.
 * So I need to take this up with my website hosting company? I assume if it’s a
   missing database it’s recoverable? (Sorry, I’m not very good at the technical
   bits in the background!!)

 * If your hosting company includes some kind of backups, you should ask them about
   this. And yes, if there is a backup, you can recover things.
 * If you think this solves your issue, mark topic as resolved.
 * Thanks
