modlook Last week my website completely destroyed itself and I need help!

    Our church website was set up by a friend who has now gone to the states… sadly I asked him for help and I dont think he knew where to start!
    So I thought its about time I learnt how to make sure this website is up to date:)
    Last week I saw a seminar for how to make sure your wordpress website was safe and up to date… it was a reputable webinar!!!

    So I downloaded wordfence but Im not sure if I applied it…

    Then he spoke about updating themes, plug ins, and updates which I did…

    Then the site went into maintenance mode…

    Then I got this disturbing message

    Warning: require_once(/home/wwwclark/public_html/wp-content/plugins/divi-builder/core/init.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/wwwclark/public_html/wp-content/plugins/divi-builder/divi-builder.php on line 294

    Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required ‘/home/wwwclark/public_html/wp-content/plugins/divi-builder/core/init.php’ (include_path=’.:/opt/cpanel/ea-php56/root/usr/share/pear’) in /home/wwwclark/public_html/wp-content/plugins/divi-builder/divi-builder.php on line 294

    Now I cant even get into the back end of wordpress!!! No access no website…

    Help!!!

    Sadly at the end of the talk he emphasised the importance of backing up your website… I wish he said that first

    I’m so embarrassed about what I’ve done!

    Unfortunately we can’t help you as these forums are for sites running on the wordpress;com platform and your site uses the open source wordpress.org. Their support is at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/.
