Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: lost blog..somewhere between .org and .comYou don’t log in to anything to get the files. You download WP by clicking the big red link at the top right of this page where it says “download”, upload the files where you want them, and install. Instructions come in the package. Are you talking about installing on your computer or installing on a server you paid for?

In reply to: Having trouble launching word pressIt doesn’t appear to me that the domain is set up properly. There should be something there but it says the site doesn’t exist. How experienced are you in this stuff? I can try to lead you through some steps if you’re a little savvy.

In reply to: Is it legal?Why are you so concerned about something that has nothing to do with you? And you didn’t “accidentally” add /wp-login.php to the end of the URL *rolls eyes* Seems like you’re just looking for trouble? Why?

In reply to: lost blog..somewhere between .org and .comNo, that’s not what he meant. There are no “files” for posts and pages. Those are stored in the database. He meant the WordPress files themselves. Where did you upload them? To have uploaded a theme you’d have had to upload and install WP first. Did you install it in the root? A folder?

In reply to: Having trouble launching word pressClicking on what link? Are you trying to get into the admin area or the website? The URL would be:
http://www.yoursite.com/ for the website (assuming you installed in the root)
and
http://www.yoursite.com/wp-login.php for admin (assuming you installed in the root)

In reply to: the top of the page is blankThere’s nothing to scroll down to. There’s only one post. And the top of the page is not blank in any of the browsers I tried it in.
Could it be that the header is using a custom image with the name already preloaded?
You could have looked at the header.php to answer your own question but no, it doesn’t. This line is what displays the blog title:
<h1><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1>which is exactly as it should be. Unless you’ve modified the theme. Did you change anything?
What’s the URL to your site?

In reply to: My Web site disappeared!Gonna need a little more info. What were you doing before it disappeared? Did you upload any files? Delete any? Change anything in your settings? Is your database still there? Your main page is an index.html. It should be index.php. Do you mean you can’t log on to your site through FTP? If so, is it possible you didn’t pay your hosting bill and your host shut you down?
