Deactivated all plugins and Customizer loaded.
Then activated them (one-by-one) to find which one or ones were causing the hang-up …
it was “Pik-List”.
Am now running with that plug-in deactivated and Customizer working as designed.
Thank you.

Downloaded another copy of WP (4.3.1) and chose the same theme I had been working on. From the files of the one I had been working on I one-by-one uploaded all the config. files (checking as I did) and have restored the theme basically as it was. So, I thinking that the problem must lie in a plugin conflict … I’ll begin working on those sometime after Sunday Football.
Enjoy the day Bill, and again thanks for the help and your time.
Over and out -Bob

Understood! Will do and post tomorrow [noonish] with results (need a rest from this right now).
Again, thanks for your help and patience Bill.
Have a great night!

I did download the theme folder from wp-content/themes/ just didn’t/don’t understand why re-uploading the entire theme folder would solve the problem.
I’m comfortable with creating sites with html and css but WP is new to me.

Thanks Bill.
You write: “delete and replace the entire Weaver II theme folder with the fresh one.”
Don’t understand “replace with a fresh one”.

Thank you for the help, Bill.
I located the parse error, it was in an add-on widget … the programmer had started a line of code with the closing bracket instead of the opening bracket. I corrected that.
The two wp_debug entries I believe were caused by the code I entered into the config file to show the errors:

error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set(‘display_errors’, 1);
define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, true);

I removed this from the config file so to negate those two errors.
Still white screen.
I’ve downloaded the theme file and saved it. I’m at the point where I’ll re-download the WP 4.3 and then file by file replace all the files in the new wp_config file and go from there … unless you can recommend a course of action that’ll restore just the theme folder.
Again, thanks.

I’m a “new” beginner to WP. Working with weaver II. Was setting up site (it was up-loaded, I could link to it on web) and was working on the parent-child functions.php and style.css files (following and inputting what I gleaned from WP Beginners site). I uploaded the weaver-ii-child folder and then got white screen of death (wsd). Removed the file but still wsd. On a help site I found and inserted (into the wp-config.php file an “error” reporting code and then on the wsd got this:
Notice: Constant WP_DEBUG already defined in /homepages/17/d272894331/htdocs/clickandbuilds/WordPress/MyWordPress/wp-config.php on line 76

Notice: Use of undefined constant RSHCP_DEBUG – assumed ‘RSHCP_DEBUG’ in /homepages/17/d272894331/htdocs/clickandbuilds/WordPress/MyWordPress/wp-content/plugins/rs-head-cleaner-lite/rs-head-cleaner-lite.php on line 104

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘}’ in /homepages/17/d272894331/htdocs/clickandbuilds/WordPress/MyWordPress/wp-content/themes/weaver-ii/functions.php on line 14

Please, what do I do with this information?
