Help, broken blog!

    I installed another wordpress blog in a subdirectory, but then afterwards, when I tried to go to my main site:

    https://www.whiskey.puffinhost.com

    it was trying to take me to the new wordpress blog.

    So I’ve deleted the new blog and removed the database I used for it, but I just get a blank screen.

    and if I type in
    https://www.whiskey.puffinhost.com/wp-admin
    then it tries to take me to the admin of the wordpress blog I’ve just deleted!

    I think I will have to reinstall my blog right?

    but how do I do that without losing my posts, comments etc. Or is there a way to recover it all?

    thanks. Chris.

    oh dear.. looks like the new wordpress wiped my old database.. not sure how that happened.. because in the config.php file I definitely set it to a different one.

    Oh well, I have most of my posts saved, just a case of reinstalling all of my old plugins etc. bit of a pain..

    Anyway, thanks for the help hotkee, very much appreciated!

    Ugh. I’m glad you figured it out though
