Thanks guys! I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to respond to my request. I ended up enlisting the help of another WordPress user, who worked diligently to restore my site. I learned one very important thing…don’t mess with stuff if you don’t know what you are doing!
Peace

When I log-in, this is the url of the blank page:
https://www.fbcmcdonough.com/fbcnew/wp-admin/upgrade.php?_wp_http_referer=%2Ffbcnew%2Fwp-admin%2F

Anyone out there??
Thanks in advance for helping a WordPress newbie.

Ha!

That gave me a giggle <<

At least it has a simple drag and drop navigation tree to set up my site navigation! Very easy for someone who doesn’t know HTML or CSS. ??

Thanks so much for your help, friends!. I found my wp-config.php file! It was actually in the fbcnew directory after all. ?? Following is what it contains (nothing before <? or after ?>):

<?php
// ** MySQL settings ** //
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘fbcmcd_fbcmcd’); // The name of the database
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘fbcmcd_user’); // Your MySQL username
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘++++++++’); // …and password
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value

// You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique prefix
$table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!

// Change this to localize WordPress. A corresponding MO file for the
// chosen language must be installed to wp-includes/languages.
// For example, install de.mo to wp-includes/languages and set WPLANG to ‘de’
// to enable German language support.
define (‘WPLANG’, ”);

/* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

define(‘ABSPATH’, dirname(__FILE__).’/’);
require_once(ABSPATH.’wp-settings.php’);
?>

By “root” folder, I’m guessing you mean the one (on my system) called “fbcnew”, under public_html? (Since I don’t have a folder called “root” ?? )

At any rate, I can’t find a file called “wp-config”. Can you possibly be more specific as to where to look? I apologize for asking questions that must seem extremely simple for you, but I took over the maintenance of the already-created-and-in-place website, and am still not sure how it all works. (WordPress isn’t near as easy as FrontPage!)

And where is the “wp-config” file?
