WP ignores my website

    All I publish through WP has no effect on my website. I install a theme and my site remains blank. The same if I publish pages, comments, etc.
    Only with Redline Theme I get my site’s name shown (but not published).
    I am on BlueHost. What can I do?

  • Have you tried:

    – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    – switching to the TwentyTen theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?

    You can switch to the TwentyTen theme through PHPMyAdmin if you’re having troubles with your admin dashboard: https://wordpress.shadowlantern.com/2009/11/change-wordpress-theme-in-phpmyadmin/

    Many thanks, esmi and bh WP fan, for your advice. My site is new and I have no plugins installed. I have made the procedure to chenge the theme through PHPMyAdmin, but I got no results. When I came back to dashboard, I found that in Appearence-Header TwentyTen was installed, but in Editor and Themes was still Crispp installed. So I have activated TwentyTen.
    Now Editor, Theme and Header are all switched on TwentyTen, but the problem remains. If I get the html code through Kompozer, what I get is:

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN” “https://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”&gt;
    <html
    xmlns=”https://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml”><head><meta
    content=”text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1″
    http-equiv=”content-type” /> <title>home</title></head>
    <body>
    </body></html>

    and no sign of themes and/or published pages.

    My site is https://www.artismirror.com (on BlueHost)

    I really cannot understand what happens.

    I think the problem is that you have an index file in your html directory which is preventing the index.php from being displayed by the server. Take a look using the Bluehost file manager and check if there’s a file called index.htm or index.html. Delete that file and you should be able to see your WP installation.

    Thanks a lot, whalesharkwebsites. This is magic! I have found (and deleted) index.html and everything functions perfectly. I had searched many days without any results and now you have got it! Thank you again!

    Cool, glad we sorted it out!
