[SOLVED] Installed theme, now website is gone
Posted: Fri May 29, 2015 11:36 pm
Hi everyone,
I am using v 1.5.6. I installed a new theme yesterday, and now my website is gone. I cannot figure out what the problem is. The admin is still accessible and everything is there when I look through the directories through FTP, but the actual webpage is just gone and the page source is completely blank. I logged into mysql and it appears to be blank from there as well.
Coincidentally, right after this happened - I opened my flash drive to restore everything from the backup that I made the day before.. and the flash drive became corrupted somehow - Everything is gone and replaced with a bunch of random letters and symbols. I didn't make a back up of my back up because, even though I am very prone to bad luck, losing my backup and my website at the same time didn't seem possible. but alas, I stand corrected and that's exactly what happened. I contacted the theme's author, and he got back with me after a couple of days saying he'll help me today, but I don't know when or if we will be able to figure it out. So, here I am.. Please help
PS: This is only my second time posting in here, so I may be leaving out a lot of important information, but I don't even know what anyone would need to know in order to troubleshoot.. so I'll be here to respond to questions if any.. but that's pretty much all that happened.
