 * Hi there everyone, recently I have got an issue and wanted to check one of my
   themes on my server (from the file manager, at my hosting website) to delete 
   it, but i realized something strange,, my server contents are not the same as
   my website contents (themes) for example!! how is it even possible ?? should 
   I reset my database or wordpress manually or do I need to contact my Hosting 
   provider company? it’s Siteground btw!! please HELP!!

 * If I’m right do you have two different file locations there? One that’s local(
   probably) that you have the website files stored in, and another one on your 
   hosting server?
 * If that’s the case, the server will have what’s used on your live site. You might
   need to update yur local copy from what’s on the server because the servers files(
   core, themes and plugins) will be updated as needed so should be the latest and
   most relevant copy.

 * [@catacaustic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/catacaustic/) Thank you very
   much for responding, what I don’t understand is that how could something like
   this happen with me when i haven’t even change anything..!!
    but to be sure we’re
   on the same page, i say it once again to be sure we don’t misunderstand,
 * so the files on my website and what i can see from my server (by Filezilla or
   my hosting website) are not the same!!
 * what happens if i reset my website?? if i use WP reset plugin to reset my website,
   would that help??
 * i just want to start my website from the day 1 i dont mind if i lose my pages
   as well!!

 * Before anything else…
 * _What_ is different? What is “corect” and what is not? What do you expect to 
   see that’s not there now, and is that local or on the server? There’s no way 
   that anyone else can see what you ar working with, so we need all of the information
   that you can give us. 🙂
 * As far as resetting your site, you can do that, but why would you need to? What
   is wrong with your stie as it stands now that warrants starting fresh?

 * i cannot see the themes that i have installed on my website, on my database (
   or server) too, no matter i upload themes by filezilla or from my hosting website,
   it doesnt come to my website!!

 * I really need a way to contact someone and explain it, it’s super time consuming
   to always write over here and get messages slowly, however i really appreciate
   you for spending your precious time to help me out!!
 * this is the reason i try to reset my website/database and start everything from
   beginning! it worth trying it and at least i’m sure it would be ok again!!
