I accidentally deleted that file in my ftp manager. Do you know how I can recover it? Is there a way I can download it from somewhere. If I re-install wordpress would I lose the articles?

Thanks

Don't use your Wordpress login for Filezilla, use your hosting login.

Who is your host? Go to their site and find the files. That's where you upload that. You should easily be able to access it w/ wp login info.

Log into your host > Cpanel > filemanager >Your domain, public html> wp root folder.

upload new wp-login.php

Edit wp-login.php as follows:


Go to the case retrievepassword section, found under this comment:

Code:

// redefining user_login ensures we return the right case in the email

Replace:

Code:

$user_login = $user_data["user_login"];

With:

Code:

$user_login = $user_data->user_login;

Job's a goodun!
