It’s been a while! Had some technical difficulties the past few months, but my blog is back online. I went the path of least resistance and decided on a brand new install after backing up the old database and site files.
My old site was previously installed in a /blog folder and I was unable to install WordPress into it or upload files using FileZilla.
Command: RMD blog
Response: 550 blog: Directory not empty
I couldn’t delete it or see the files within it, so easiest thing to do was install into a new folder.
