 * Hi,
 * I just reinstalled Word Press on my Go Daddy hosting account after something 
   I did in the coding for the new multisite function caused my site to virtually
   disappear. I couldn’t access /wp-admin, /index.php or the site root. So, following
   Go Daddy’s advice, I backed up my database and then uninstalled and reinstalled
   Word Press. After it was set up, I imported the old database in and again saw
   nothing. Again calling Go Daddy, I changed the settings of my wp-config back 
   to the wp-configsample and then edited the lines with the db access information.
   Like before, I could access the wp-admin, but the site did not show up.
 * Again, listening to Go Daddy, I renamed my plugins folder to see if that might
   be the problem and it was! At this point, the site has all the content, comments,
   etc and I can access everything but now don’t have any plugins. I think it must
   have something to with WP-config or .htaccess, but I’ve tried almost everything
   and no go.
 * Any help now would be a God Send.
 * Thanks in Advance!!

 * Thanks Rich,
 * Yeah, it was the active plugins that were doing it. I finally ended up just deleting
   all the plugins and reinstalling and then it worked fine!
