Logging into dashboard brings up old theme

    I haven’t been able to duplicate this problem on the boards here.

    I installed a new WordPress theme. The problem is, the new theme displays in Firefox (3.6.3) and IE 7 fine, until I log into the dashboard. When I click on “Visit site” within the WP dashboard, both browsers display my OLD theme. I have done the following to attempt to address the problem:

    1. Cleared all history and cache, disabled the WP saved password info. Closed browser, re-entered. Same result.

    2. Disabled FF cache altogether, repeated #1. Still no change.

    Again, the new theme displays fine when I simply visit the site from the URL bar. It’s when I’m logged in and click on the “Visit site” link (which simply points to the URL) that I get the old theme.

    Am I missing an obvious step here? I’ve not had much experience with this, as I’ve only used one theme since 2008.

    Thanks for any advice.

    Have to tried activating the default wordpress theme and deactivating all the plugins?

    Please try that and see if anything changes.

    A-Ha! Forgot about checking for plug-in problems. It was one of my plug-ins causing the issue.

    Thanks!
