 * Hi there!
 * Hope you’re having a great day today!
 * This website is down: [http://merrillhanson.com/](http://merrillhanson.com/) 
   because of malware. I need to get to the Blog posts that we written.
 * I can still login into the FTP and I see all the file there. But I do not know
   where is the Blogs that were written. Do you know? I need to save them to my 
   desktop so I can add them to the new theme.
 * Where are the Blogs in the FTP? What is the name of that file?
 * Thank you so much,
    Christine

 * I am sorry that your site was damaged. Your posts, comments and pages are in 
   the database. Your images and other media are in wp-content > uploads.
 * To get to the database you login to your hosting account and use phpmyadmin. 
   You will use FTP for anything in the wp-content directory.
 * If your database was not damaged, all you should have to do is a new clean install.
   Export your old database and then import it into the new one. All the old content
   should be there.
