ok i managed to restore it how it was before. but while we are on the subject of restoring back up, can i restore just the contents of a back up from a previous

i had used a plugin to back it up. i had restored the plug in and then must have restored the back ups that i made with the plugin for the old site. and now it wont let me log in.

i can get to the log in page and enter my credentials but then it fails and points me to the old website, also when i enter the new website its just coming up blanks.

the website i backed it up too is brand new so there wasn’t anything on this just the original wordpress site ready for me to use.

could i just drop all the files from my SQL as they are showing all the new files which i had put on by mistake and upload a blank wordpress file?

OK sorry i just re read the comments ill try that thanks.

ok i upload wordpress in the new directory but then i have to download the old files from the other directory onto my hard drive then upload them in the new directory also? is that correct?

how do i move my core wordpress files to the new database

ok i clicked save after editing my url but now ive been redirected to the my other domain without anything on it. but what my question would be is how do i move the core wordpress files to the new directory?

but i also do not have access to mySQL, so from what i can make out is that i only have one option that is FTP which i have tried but i am unclear as to how to do it without using myphpadmin/ mySQL.

any more input would be welcomed, basically is there a way that i can do it strictly off my 1and1 dashboard?

thanks

that is the problem though i cannot get access to my php files
