 * After updating the website for where I work, I decided to update 5 of the plugins.
   Big mistake apparently because I can’t even get to the website to view it! Does
   anyone know how I can go back to the site to make adjustments? I was in the middle
   of fixing up the main page links. -_- the website is ewmlibrary.org.

 * using ftp rename this plugin events-manager and see if it clears the problem.
   
   try manually resetting your plugins, using ftp rename plugins folder to plugins_hold
   and create a blank plugins folder If that resolves the issue, delete blank plugins
   folder and rename original back to plugins and reactivate each one individually
   until you find the cause.

 * How can I do this if I can’t even go to the website itself (and the admin page)?

 * I tried logging in on the server and it said the password was incorrect. The 
   site said the passwords were reset sometime in June (even though I can log on
   as admin from the website).
    And I have little to no experience with css and 
   website lingo, so I’m still not sure what ftp is. haha, I’m sorry. If you could,
   could you type out a step by step process to get to an ftp? Or what ftp (site?)
   would work better?
