Blank Theme

    I’ll start by stating that I’ve read TONS of entries similar, but not exact, to my problem.

    I have WordPress 2.9.2 installed on my server (www.antisteez.com). I have a “developer” directory (www.antisteez.com/dev) with WordPress 2.9.2 also installed in it, just because I work on future themes in it and then just drag the theme to the main directory.

    Just today, after a few months of working on a few themes, I upload a theme from the developer section to my main directory, just to preview it with my database, and it shows up blank. It works great on the developer site, though.

    I’ve dealt with themes that show up blank on the preview for some reason, but are fine when you activate, so I activated. Of course it’s also blank when I activate it. My admin section is also blank. No errors, just a white page.

    I FTPed the theme out and returned to my old theme. I did some research and made sure the directories were chmoded 777 and the files were 644. The preview screenshot works. I looked through function.php. I renamed the theme folder to make sure there are no “-” or “_”. And I’m pretty much stumped.

    Any suggestions would help me out. Thanks in advance.

    You’re welcome!

    P.S. There’s really no reason to use any Gravatar plugin since it’s built into WordPress now. Check out Settings/Discussion in your admin panel. If you need to implement Gravatars into your theme (without a plugin), follow this guide.

    Even more of a reason to boycott is, I guess.

    Thanks again, macmanx.

    I am having the exact same problem, but with a theme I just purchased. Apparently it works for anyone else using it, and the author has suggested everything he can think of. I’ve updated to the latest stable versions of wordpress, php, apache, perl… all with no luck.

    Since I’m not the author, or otherwise php savvy, what would you suggest I try to fix this? I have no idea where I’d find plugins to deactivate/reactivate as you did.
