FTP unable to connect

    Hi! I was looking around the CSS file on my site (legalprocess.in) and managed to somehow mess it up. The installed theme (Twenty Fourteen) is shown as no longer installed and I cannot change the theme from the control panel. I have understood that if I upload the theme files using FTP, things should largely be normal.

    Now, the problem is that I cannot seem to log in using Filezilla. This is the log:
    Status: Resolving address of legalprocess.in
    Status: Connecting to 184.168.47.225:21…
    Error: Connection timed out
    Error: Could not connect to server
    Status: Waiting to retry…

    I haven’t enabled FTP access (not sure if this or any thing else needs to be done to enable FTP access). I’m trying to log on using the login and password that I use to log in to the WordPress admin panel. Are these the correct credentials? Please help!

    Would truly appreciate a solution to be able to access the website over FTP using FileZilla.

    Happy to provide more information if required.

    Thanks a ton!

    No. Ask your webhost for the correct FTP credentials. WordPress has nothing to do with FTP at your host.
