@wpyogi, I’m finally back up. I deleted everything and reloaded WordPress and the newest version of Dandelion and made a new wp-config page and this has somehow restored my access. . . .Whatever.

Thanks for responding

in my log>php.errors.log the following text appears

this repeats over and over again. What is that about? Is this an indicator of my problem?

Yes my plug-ins folder is named plugins.hold.

Yeah dandelion is still there, I renamed it so it wouldn’t be used and my website disappeared, but I was still unable to visit my admin page, so I restored it because I was worried about customers trying to use our site and its online forms.

There are two folders: one simply called “dandelion” the other is called “dandelion v. 2.5” which is a 2 year old version of the theme. I downloaded the latest version and uploaded it, but it made no difference – still blank white /wp-admin page.

I renamed one dandelion file and then the other. My site is unaffected by “dandelion” being renamed, but disappears when “dandelion v 2.5” is renamed. When I rename either or both my /wp-admin page is still blank white.

Damn.

Damn.
1. I downloaded word press and uploaded and overwrote everything except the content folder. Result: no difference – still get a blank page at https://www.mikemcenroe.com/wp-admin/ and at https://www.mikemcenroe.com/wp-login.php.

I then went back to the hypothesis that my theme is the problem. . .So

2. I disabled dandelion (the theme I use) by adding “.hold” to the file names hoping that the page would load with a default theme. https://www.mikemcenroe.com disappeared and my /wp-admin page was remained a blank white abyss.

3. Could it be a problem with my server? (I use laughing squid). ???

Damn.

Thanks for responding Wpyogi – much appreciated.

1. Yes I do have the default themes 2011 – 2013
2. I disabled my Dandelion theme by renaming the folder hoping that my admin page would open in a default theme, but no dice.

3. I uploaded a new version of wordpress yesterday, but I’m going to down load it again now and give it another shot, being careful to follow your suggestion exactly.

thanks again I’ll post again here with the results shortly.

Other forums had suggested that too. Others who had blank admin pages were able to access that way.

When I’m logged in, my web-page doesn’t look any different: there are ordinarily dark bars at the top and bottom of the screen with editing options. This doesn’t happen when I log in now. My page looks the same whether I’m logged into WP or not – and page/wp-admin and the page/wp-login.php are both just blank.

Blank white page.

I also tried deleting the theme I was using (it had also not been updated since 2011) to see if WP-admin would open with default theme. That didn’t help matters either. It just made my site disappear, so I restored the theme, and still can’t get to my admin page.

I’m having a similar problem.

My /wp-admin page has been blank for a week or so. I have been reading through all of these forums an have exhausted all the remedies which worked for others. I rarely edit the site (https://www.mikemcenroe.com).

I made a few changes bank in August and my dashboard was accessible then. I had not updated my theme or wordpress since 2011. After getting the blank admin page last week, I downloaded the latest version of wordpress and installed it using filezilla. It made no difference.

I have renamed my plug in folder as “Plugins.hold”
I have searched through functions.php files everywhere they are found in my directory and deleted spaces at rhe top and bottom: no difference.

I looked in my wp-config.php and I have no idea if anything is amiss because I am functionally illiterate when it comes to this stuff.

So I have no idea what to do and I’m screwed. Any help? Anyone? Damn it.

Thanks Yogi, I followed your link and “started a ticket” yesterday afternoon.

Hopefully they come through with some solution. However, I think the problem is something that I am overlooking because there was not a single similar complaint in the Dandelion “knowledge base” (prior tickets). So, I doubt it is a bug with Dandelion, otherwise there would’ve been other complaints. Hopefully I’m wrong and the author will send me some insight which will get me past this nonsense.

I would be really, really, appreciative, grateful, and forever in your debt, if you or anyone else can think of anything else I should be looking for besides what I mentioned above:
1. deactivating plugins (nothing changed),
2. trying other browsers (same result),
3. using different themes (in Twenty Eleven the link button was fine button did work, but not in Dandelion when I came back).
4. uploading the latest version of word press and dandelion
5. In another thread, someone added the plugin “google libraries” when a button wouldn’t work, I did that, it made no difference (no clue why it would, but I’ll try anything).

What am I overlooking?
