Wordpress site went down after deleting a plugin via ftp - wordpress

I wanted to update the Revolution Slider plugin so I just went in via FTP, deleted the folder and added the new plugin folder. When I went to the site I got a very basic 500 error with not much info (in Chrome).
I tried removing the plugin, replacing it with the original, removing the htaccess file, putting in a blank htaccess file but nothing seems to bring the site back up.
I now have the original revolution slider plugin installed and the htaccess file with the rewrite rules (basically as it was when the site was working last).
I am at a loss for what to do next. Any suggestions? Here is the site location:
http://innerwestadv.com/damonte/

I actually had to go into the database and deactivate all of the plugins.

Wordpress website hacked and .htaccess file is creating automatically with strange code

In my wordpress website .htaccess has some strange redirection script, i removed the file but once the site is browsed the .htaccess file is automatically created with the strange script. in addition to that a folder named generall is also automatically creating even though we delete the folder. The folder has one php file and html file with strange scripts. Please help to resolve the hacking issue
You need to completely remove the infection from your site. Here's the easiest WordPress guide to follow: https://malcure.com/blog/security/the-easiest-guide-to-wordpress-malware-removal/
Your website still contains malware. You need to do a complete virus scan. You can use WordFence plugin to scan.
With these also try
1. Update all theme & plugins.
2. Do a manual update of your WordPress.

Wordpress always redirects to /wp-login.php

i have a problem with one of my wordpress websites. Every time i want to open to home url it automatically redirects me to the /wp-login.php with this strange url:
https://example.at/wp-login.php?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.at%2F&reauth=1
Also i can't use the "Back to example.at" Link under the login window.
Site & Home URL are set correctly, also there is no redirection set in any plugin or in the .htacces. Also all safety plugins are disabled.
Does anyone already had this strange problem?
Make sure that your website plugins works good.
For first disable all plugins or rename /wp-content/plugins folder then check your website. If problem solves rename back the plugins folder and try to rename plugins directories step by step and find problematic plugin.
Try change the main theme and recheck problem, look at your main theme function.php file content, if you see the obfuscated codes, delete this codes and recheck website.
Delete wp-include, wp-admin folders and reupload from offical wordpress.org last version archive,
Install Wordfence av plugin and scan your website files. maybe you have injected codes.
check your .htaccess file, try to reset it.
Check your server and wordpress requirements. Change the php version to 7.2.
Disable your cahce plugins (if you have).
Try to debug your website with this steps.

Manual website migration is very difficult to do. So you can transfer your website in few minutes without any issues using duplicator plugin. you just need to installed the plugin and followed the installation wizard.
you can read or watch step by step video tutorial HOW TO CLONE WEBSITE TO NEW HOST USING WORDPRESS DUPLICATOR
Go to your dashboard, log in, go to settings.
Change the following:
Site Address
Wordpress Address
Save. That should work.
did you try save permalinks some times the problem happen because permalinks need update
other point if you can go to old site and use this plugin to move your site agin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/
It turns out there were some issues with the httpd.conf file and httpaccess files. The permalinks and database details were correct. I got this outsourced in the end so not 100% sure what the issue was but I shall update this post with more info when I get it :)

WordPress website doesn't load after installing theme

I have installed: http://themeforest.net/item/123ecology-corporate-ecommerce-wordpress-theme/4561597 on my domain. It stops working as I activated it. Now an empty page is loading, either I try to load dashboard or front-end. I faced this problem earlier on another site. But on that it occurs for a few time.
My Current website is: http://primeimports.ca/
This usually happens when their is a PHP error in the theme's code. If you have access to the files via FTP perhaps, just delete the theme folder and your Wordpress installation will work again.

Moving Wordpress site subdirectory errors

I have just moved my testing development subdirectory worpdress installation to my root folder using the WP-Clone plugin.
The problem now is my main site (previously mysite.com ) shows (mysite.com/site) now. and the subdirectory is shwoing in all my links
I have tried going to settings and removed the /site from wordpress URL and Site address URL.
But it broke my site and disabled me from accessing my wp-login.php .
I fixed it by editing my wp-config.php and adding :
define('WP_HOME','https://mysite.com/site');
define('WP_SITEURL','https://mysite.com/site');
and now my website works perfectly. But it still shows mysite.com/site and i am unable to edit my URL and Siteaddress from my wp dashboard anymore.
How do I Remove my website subdirectory (/site) and still have it work and not break my site's themes and all? How do I go about this? Really really appreciate any help! Thanks!
By adding those constants to wp-config.php you're overruling any setting in the database. That's why you can't edit them in the admin panel.
So the first step is to change those constants to:
define('WP_HOME','https://domain.com');
define('WP_SITEURL','https://domain.com');
Then delete your htaccess file. (.htaccess in your root folder).
Once you've done this navigate to http://domain.com/wp-login.php
Login to your site and go to Settings -> Permalinks. Hit save which will regenerate your htaccess file.
Finally you'll need to update existing links. I'd suggest installing a plugin called 'Velvet Blues Update URLs'.
