    Default Broke my Site - Installed Zip into live public_html directory

    Morning Morning

    I am absolutely devastated.

    Broke my Site - Installed Zencart Zip into public_html directory into a folder called TESTSHOP and unzipped it.
    I was trying to create a test site so that I can rebuild my original site as Google is not listing my products.

    Now neither the frontend or backend work.

    I then deleted the folder called TESTSHOP and did a restore to the day before changes were made.
    No luck. My webhost also did a restore and still no luck.

    I am assuming by unpacking the zipped zencart file it has somehow conflicted with the previous zencart installation.

    Zen 1.5.6c

    Please help me fix up this mess I have created.
    I would like the site back up and running and then will proceed with installing the test Zen in a sub domain which I should have done in the first place.

    There's a site at the address provided... What's the issue now?

    Did you figure out how to effectively "recover" from a restore and that is why the site is functional?

    No I had to get a freelancer to help me. It had something to do with a DB issue. I didn't change anything with regards to DB so not sure how this happened. Problem is now resolved thanks for looking into it though. Much appreciated.
