    I can view the website, but when I login as admin, the screens are not displaying well. The plug I installed has a warning that if it went bad, do this:

    Notice: It is very important to be extremely attentive when making changes to .htaccess file.

    I think this security plugin manages the file and what is in public_html may not be the right one to change as below:

    If after making changes your site stops functioning, do the following:

    Step #1: Open .htaccess file in the root directory of the WordPress install and delete everything between the following two lines

    # BEGIN HTTPS Redirection Plugin
    # END HTTPS Redirection Plugin

    Step #2: Save the htaccess file (this will erase any change this plugin made to that file).

    Step #3: Deactivate the plugin or rename this plugin’s folder (which will deactivate the plugin).

    The changes will be applied immediately after saving the changes, if you are not sure – do not click the “Save changes” button.

    I don’t think reinstalling WP is going to make any difference. So yep just try and restore your database.

    Did you get this fixed? If not, post a new support topic in the Easy HTTPS Redirection plugin support forum and see they can tell how to recover your website from that plugin.
