    Hello,

    I have recreated your public_html and www folders and you can now upload your site into one of those (they are mirrors of each others and thus basically the same)

    how would i recreate the actual website. ive tryed to get onto the website but it keeps saying invalid address. i have put all the files that i curently know could make it restart, would the ftp folder have anything to do with this because that was also deleted

    How did you configure your domain at the domain registrar?

    FTP folder would not matter in the case of getting the site to work.

    Your current main domain is a .com domain. Those are not free, you would have to buy it from a domain registrar in order to use such a domain. If you have not bought the domain, it won't work, and I would then suggest you change back to using a subdomain that we offers freely.

    mil-spec-h-43577 dot elementfx dot com is what I see for your main domain now.

    It loads for me, no redirect. No index page, so it is showing the contents of public_html .

    Clear your browser cache and history before checking the domain again. If you still are redirected, add ?foooo to the end of the URL to bypass your ISP's caching.
    Nothing is always absolutely so.
