I did something truly stupid and was wondering if anyone here could offer me a solution. Today I was playing around with one of my hosting accounts and by mistake deleted my WordPress blog. I’m using cute FTP, is there anyway to restore my files or are they long gone?
Your Wordpress files are somewhat gone, but that can be fixed by just re-uploading wordpress. As long as your wp-config.php file is pointing to the right place, then none of your blog entries should be gone, because wordpress is done through a database. Unless you deleted your database, you should be fine.
