I was trying to figure out how to install my SSL and installed another theme instead. I uninstalled the theme and now all I see is your splash page. Under customize, my settings are the same, I just don't know how to get my site to publish again...I know, I'm learning. My bad. Can you help get me back on track as well as how to install my SSL? Thank you.

Hello BIGJAKE, Thank you for your question. Our default landing page loads when there is no index file (index.htm, index.html, index.php, etc.) in the public_html folder. I looked in your public_html folder and noticed you were running Wordpress and the index.php file was missing.

Solution

I fixed this by identifying your version of Wordpress (it was listed in your softver.txt file), and downloading a new copy from Wordpress.org. I then uploaded the included index.php file to the public_html folder. Then your Wordpress site was able to load. I tested your SSL using sslshopper.com, and confirmed it is installed correctly. To use an SSL on your Wordpress site, I recommmend using the WordPress HTTPS (SSL) plugin. If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below. Thank you, -John-Paul
