 * Reading through [this page on propagation](http://support.hostgator.com/articles/when-will-my-domain-start-working-propagation),
   I think the issue is the nameserver just hasn’t caught up yet.
 * I’m welcome to try any other recommendations but I’m starting to think it’s just
   a “wait and see” situation.

 * I enabled debugging, but nothing happened.
 * Also, I wasn’t able to find debug_log or debug_display. Where would these be 
   located?
 * EDIT: Never mind, I found it. But it still didn’t do anything. It didn’t create
   a log or anything.

 * Manually updated to WordPress 4.7.1.
 * It shows as the latest version in my HostGator cPanel, but didn’t change anything.
 * The Login Trouble page didn’t offer anything that appears to be able to fix it
   either.

 * The HostGator File Manager isn’t allowing me to delete entire wp-includes or 
   wp-admin folders, so do I just delete the individual files inside and then upload
   the new ones?
 * The Manual Update doc says to delete the entire directory, but it’s not an option
   for me. I’m assuming that just leaving the folder and deleting the files inside
   will do the same thing.

 * Success!
 * Wow. That took less work than I expected, but I never would have known to do 
   that.
 * Thanks so much James, you’re a lifesaver.
 * Lesson of the day:
 * STOP pushing buttons!
