Wordpress theme installation problem

[BistosAmerica]

Hi,

I was trying to install different theme from wordpress - appearance - install theme

As soon as I did that, I saw error message and can't even access to my wp-admin

Can anyone help me with this problem?

• I tried rename old theme - didn't help

• delete old theme - didn' help either

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

You need to rename your current theme, not the old theme. Once you rename your current theme that will uninstall that theme and revert to the default theme so you can access WordPress again.

Hi Casey,

Think it's  a dumb question but how do I know which theme I am in?

As I said, I was installing a different theme (studio press) from Seneca (graph paper) and whole thing got messed up.  - Just a click -

Then I tried to rename Seneca theme (which was originally installed & activated), and finally deleted it.

You are using studio press now? if so you installed did Genesis framework 1st? What are you hosting on? if you want I will come in and fixed your problem for free given it's what you say it is. You can call me at 603-978-1964 I will change this number in approximately an hour.

this is what you need to do laid out right here fixes problem by the way give the thumbs-up to Casey as he did tell you what was right http://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-got-a-warning-and-now-cant-access-wordpress

it seems to me because I do a lot of Genesis/studio press WordPress work. That this gentleman tried to do a simple change that would've worked if he was using the same themes that are out there for 90% of what is offered to WordPress users. However if you are using studio press you must 1st install the Genesis framework is the framework is separate from the theme. If you are actually trying to change the name of the theme itself I don't understand why you would want to do that if you're talking about something that wouldn't be seen by anyone however if you are simply talking about naming it whatever your website is this make sense. Also one thing I strongly advised everyone is use a managed WordPress host when using WordPress you could very simply sign up for WP engine, Zippy kid, pagely or web synthesis and they would fix your problem for you. Give you a hint Zippy kid is the best value and least expensive and extremely high-quality.  If you move to any of the hosts I just named you will get these types of problems fixed for free by the host.

It looks like your current theme is called "Focus", rename that to something different and it will uninstall the theme for you and you will be able to access WP again.

You mentioned you deleted the old theme also, so make sure you have either twenty ten or twenty eleven installed as a fallback theme.

I did not install Genesis first.  Think this caused some problems.
