 * Wow. Once I cleared browser cache it came right up. Never occurred to me that
   could happen, or to try something so obvious as another browser. Thanks for everything,
   i’ll go hide now.

 * Thanks to you both for the posts. [@jevets](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jevets/),
   I tried creating a blank .htaccess file and uploading it to the root dir. But
   still no home page. Did i do that right? As for permalinks, I tried selecting
   a different (non-default) setting but that didn’t help yet either, I didn’t see
   any documentation on “reconfiguring permalinks” so that’s all i tried there so
   far.
 * [@ub](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ub/) i already have the correct url
   in the general settings (www.site.com) and i even tried putting the exact file
   path there (.com/index.php) but page is still not found. (That lead to other 
   problems accessing my WP Dashboard, so I backed out of that direct-file-path 
   approach.)
 * I dont know if this is a wordpress glitch or a database glitch with my host/server(
   1and1). Not sure what direction to go. Any other ideas?
