AgH! Deleted Wordpress folder... recovery?

[Bryan V]

So... long story short: I deleted the root folder that held a Wordpress install of mine. I'm not sure how to get it back. I figure the database is ok.. and I have a backup SOMEWHERe of it if its actually needed.

After googling for a while it seems a lot of people install it with Fantastico or something else, but I just upped it manually.

I uploaded a fresh install of wordpress and changed the table prefix in the config file and not sure what else to do now to get it to work.

Anyone know what to do? Thanks!

Contact your host provider, would be the first option, I think most of the information/content is stored in the database and the rest like custimisations/settings/plugins/themes in those folders you deleted.

I'm thinking all the posts are stored in a database somewhere too. I don't really care about the themes/plugins, etc because I can rebuild that quickly. I'm still hoping I can fix it on my end.

however I did call hosting and they could roll back my entire account 24 hours, but that would undo even more things. Will continue searching.. any help would be appreciated!
