    Hello there, I am a beginner at using wordpress and I’d like some help in recovering my website. I’ve been working on a few php files on wp-admin which caused a fatal crash on the entire site. I’ve been trying to connect to the file server via Filezilla, but I have had no luck in being able to connect.

    If anyone could help me, it would be much appreciated. I apologize if this is in the incorrect forum.

    Your host should have instructions on how to access your site via FTP.

    You should NEVER edit files within wp-admin. There is almost never a need to do so. You should only edit plugin and theme files within the wp-content folder to apply customizations.

    As @sterndata already suggested, contact your host and tell them you would like help accessing your site via FTP.
