    You needed to change the wordpress urls in your dashboard to reflect the new directory name before you changed the directory name. Hop back into your ftp client and rename the directory back to “wp”. Assuming nothing else has changed, that should let you back in.

    Go back to your site and log in. Change the urls to the new path, save the changes, then change the directory name again and see what happens. Update your permalinks after you log back in. I hope I didn’t forget anything. 🙂
