Great, now keep those in mind.

  1. Download a fresh copy of WordPress from wordpress.org and extract it locally.
  2. Copy wp-config-sample.php into wp-config.php and change the following lines:
// ** Database settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define( 'DB_NAME', 'DB Name' );

/** Database username */
define( 'DB_USER', 'Hosting account name' );

/** Database password */
define( 'DB_PASSWORD', 'Hosting account password' );

/** Database hostname */
define( 'DB_HOST', 'MySQL host' );

and this

$table_prefix = "wpsd_";
  1. Download FileZilla (Client) from filezilla-project.org. See this guide on how to use the app:
  1. Upload your copy of WordPress to your account.
  2. You may now login to your site at https://rabeetkhan-portfolio.infinityfreeapp.com/wp-admin/
  3. You should see something like “Plugins xxx deactivated”, “theme not found”, and that’s ok.
  4. Go to the “Themes” page and install & activate the “Blocksy” theme.
  5. Go to the “Plugins” page and install & activate the following:
    1. All-in-one WP Migration
    2. Blocksy Companion
    3. Classic Editor
    4. W3 Total Cache
    5. WP Mail SMTP
    6. WPForms

Now your site should load up normally. Some data is lost, but the configs, posts, and some other things should be present.
