 * Hi all –
 * I have two sets of information for the same username and I think its causing 
   me some issues. I’m trying to set up the wordpress blog for thisisabby.com. I
   think I did a double set up and now they’re both pointing to the same thing? 
   I was having issues getting the theme to update and a test post to appear and
   now I can’t login! Any ideas?

 * Access your server via SFTP, FTP, or a file manager in your hosting provider’s
   control panel. Do you actually have a complete second WordPress installation 
   in the `/wpadmin/` directory (which is not the same as `/wp-admin/`)?

 * Hi James –
 * Yes! I have a duplicate installation in /wpadmin/. Should I delete /wpadmin/ 
   altogether? Literally just getting started so no posts or anything I’m worried
   about losing.

 * Yes, just delete that directory, it won’t affect the database. 🙂

 * Actually, download the directory to your computer before deleting it, just in
   case. 🙂

 * Whoops – I didn’t download it and now I can’t get to a login page…looks like 
   my skeleton blog is coming up on thisisabby.com but can’t login and the default
   post from WordPress ‘can’t be found’.
