  • Can you still login to your dashboard?

    Yes

    Good! What is not working on your site? Can you define what you mean by site crashed?

    Currently it all works, but I can not upgrade to higher versions of wordpress 3.8.1 as my bulletin board tells me that there are higher.

    I mean that entering the comments page can not click anywhere and that the page does not scroll anymore. This problem is solved by deleting tables from phpmyadmin comments.
    Now I want to update my wordpress, this is the important part now.

    OK. There has been a one button update since version 3.7. You may be able to go to your Dashboard > Home > Updates > and see a button to update WordPress.

    If you don’t see the button, disable all your plugins and see if you have the option to update. If you can upgrade, do so.

    If you still can’t update, activate a different theme and check to see if you can update.

    If turning off the plugins and changing themes doesn’t allow you to update, follow this: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Updating_WordPress#Manual_Update to do a manual update.
