 * Thank you, but in order for me to check any of these I need to access the WP-
   ADMIN page, but its not letting me. Any advice on how to get back onto it?

 * You may access your server or files via FTP/ SFTP , or a file manager in your
   hosting account’s control panel (consult your hosting provider’s documentation
   for specifics on these)
