Hello all I am new to Xoops
I have just made a website which is hosted on 007ihost. I uploaded a new theme and now the site has gone blank. I can still access the admin section, but the site is gone! The link is: lockelymarkets.007ihost.com
Please help
Thanks

I had a similar problem -- had a clean install and then the first thing I tried was changing a theme and this resulted in a completely blank page. In my case, the entire site was completely blank -- I couldn't even log in -- so I cleared my cache, reloaded, and closed the browser entirely -- nada.

Here's what I did to get it back for any other completely perplexed newb like me.
1. went into mysql, there's a xoops_config table, browsed it and edited the var, theme_set -- I just entered "default" since I knew that worked.
2. this allowed me to see the login page, but then the admin page was blank.
3. I then killed my cache, and manually entered myxoopsdomain.com/admin.php and was able to see it. Why? I dunno -- maybe the cache?
4. then I again changed the theme to something else and it thankfully worked.
5. sheesh

Some themes are just broken. Or depend on you to customize something on your system in order to get them to work. ie WF_Matrix and Borg themes. Both made my XOOPS site go blank. Change back to a reliable theme and it works. Even the other WF themes were ok, just that one didnt work. Why? Dont know. Just make your own themes I guess. Wonder if there is a XOOPS Theme howto anywhere (goes off to look).
