Title: Doesn't load. Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Doesn't load. * Resolved [Annwfyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/annwfyn/) * (@annwfyn) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-1/) * Good day, * I have installed my WP using 1click installs (names.co.uk hosting). After waiting 4 hours (as seen on internet tutorial) I went ahead and logged in (works like a bee). I can navigate and change things in the admin panel, but the default template won’t appear if I go to my website, and “preview changes” show the same thing: default index.html put there by names.co.uk. * Any ideas what could be wrong? Should i try to re-install (if so, do I need to do anything prior to running a new install, like delete databases and files)? * I am new to WP, I have had my hands on different WP sites before, however never had to install and get it up and running. * Any help is appreciated. * Regards Viewing 3 replies - 1 through 3 (of 3 total) * [2ninerniner2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/2ninerniner2/) * (@2ninerniner2) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-1/#post-3844636) * Log into your hosting control panel’s file manager or using an FTP program, delete or rename that index.html. It is preventing the WP index.php from “working”. * Thread Starter [Annwfyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/annwfyn/) * (@annwfyn) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-load-1/#post-3844660) * thanks a lot, that was as stupid as i thought it must be.
