Good to know! I’ll update first next time ??
Thx!

Thanks for the quick reply!

I cant see what version of WP it was, but I updated probably about 9 months ago, and I needed to update again today when I logged in.

Unfortunately I’m hosting with Yahoo Small Biz, and I dont know thst I can access my WordPress files from there. But I’m in the process of moving everything over to new hosting (for that exact reason), so maybe I should just wait until that goes through, and then I’ll follow your instructions for restoring the old theme (and then update my WP).

Is there a specific process for updating to a new theme that you can point us to, where we might avoid the same blank screen problem when trying again?

FWIW, the one I updated to was Codium Extend:

Thanks again!

I followed the steps 1-5 at that link, and then went back to the Yahoo interface and clicked on View Your Blog which took me to the install page, where I entered a blog name and email address and hit Install WordPress. I still get a page full of errors.

In my phpMyAdmin screen I have 3 databases:
blog (23)
mysql (6)
wordpress(0)
