Ah found my answer! My old site uses PHP4.0 but my new one uses PHP 5.0.

With PHP 5.0 you need to assign the memory usage for your php pages. I’m not a techie so I called my host and asked them to increase my PHP memory and ta da! no more blank pages… so not WordPress problem at all but a PHP 5.0 and website host problem! ??

Ah Hah! Found the problem!

This is so common on the forum “Blank Pages” to do with admin but there is only one post I could find that answers it. I’m not a techie so forgive me if my asnwer isn’t exact….

WordPress databases use php pages…
Most people using PHP 4.0 will have no problems.

BUT

If you are using PHP 5 you need to manually assign memory to your PHP usage. I couldn’t do it personally (again not a techie!) so I called my host and asked them to increase my PHP memory! Problem solved no more blank pages!!

Hi,
I moved my blog from one url to another… exact same host same web set up . I reinstalled wordpress 2.7.1 which I was using on my old site.

The plugins which work on my other site when installed on the new one cause the plugins page to stop working (all I see is the original intro page even though several plugins were installed) and the dashboard to disappear(white page no error message).

Sometimes when I install plugins and re-login the whole admin sections is a blank white page… I don’t know what’s wrong as it is ‘theoretically’ exactly the same as the old site. Is this a common error? Can anyone suggest a fix?

The only way I can fix it at the moment is to have no plugins at all (not even akismet) and that seems a bit pointless…

Thank you that is wonderful! I was tearing my hair out over this!

… I have a dumb question though… My sidebar shows up now but the bookmarks and login are missing… I’m using the default theme with the latest version of wordpress… does anyone have an idea of why this is missing??

thank you so much if you can help!

Problem Solved…
