    I uploaded Primepress to my ftp, and it had an error. Instead of closing the preview window, I accidentally clicked, "activate theme". Now I can't access my dashboard, and my site won't appear. Please help!

    I deleted the Primepress theme from my ftp, but my site is still not working. I am so worried!

    This is the message I get when I try to access my admin page:

    Warning: main(/mnt/local/home/mrssteviet/thefrugalgirl.com/wp-content/themes/PrimePress/library/pp-options.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /mnt/local/home/mrssteviet/thefrugalgirl.com/wp-content/themes/PrimePress/functions.php on line 2

    Clear your browser cache and try going directly to your login.

    //www.yoursite.com/wp-login.php

    That may allow you to bypass the theme long enough to set a new one.

    That worked for me once when I had a borked theme index.php file. In fact once I logged in, it reverted back to the default theme on its own.

    WP is trying to call a function from the Primepress theme file. That's what this means:

    No such file or directory in [...] wp-content/themes/PrimePress/functions.php on line 2

    What was the error with Primepress?

    She must have sorted it out ok. The site is opening fine now using the Barthelme theme.
