    I was stupid enough to delete my whole hosting folder a while back and now all that's left is my Wordpress database, but its an older version. I already put back all the Wordpress files and added the config file so it matches the database but it still doesn't work. How can you assign Wordpress to an older database? Thanks in advance. :)

    Can you find a download of the old version of Wordpress and install that...then upgrade?

    When you login to admin panel should ask you to upgrade the database.
