 * I re installed my wordpress and now my admin wants to connect to my old
    wordpress,
   how do I get rid of the old word press admin in my files?
 * I did this because I wanted to move everything to ssl and got locked out. I was
   able to reconnect but now the site has gone back to my old login

 * – If you know how to access phpMyAdmin on your host, then check the wp_options
   Table (Note: The table prefix of wp_ may be different if you changed it when 
   installing), and make sure **siteurl** field and **home** field are correct.

 * thank you for following me thru this Tara,
 * I managed with my host to get back into my site.
 * I reloaded WP onto my server and now just trying to get all the pages ssl.
    I
   am using ‘search and replace’ and it is helping alot. Since I have changed it
   to ssl, I have been bombarded by people trying to get into my site.
 * Now I just have to figure out all the names of the urls
