   Hi ryanweijian,

   Use an FTP client like FileZilla to login to your site and undo whatever it is you did.

   I've tried replacing the sidebar.php, stylesheet.css and index.php with the original version unedited version via FTP upload to replace it, but the screen is still white?

   what is the next step which i should do next?

   anybody who got similar experience before who can advise?

   greatly appreciated for any help possible.

   thanks

   if you have replaced the files, try disabling all of your plugins, then reactiving them one by one.

   as a side note - that would be pretty weird code for a style sheet
   sure you shouldn't be putting it in another file?

   Hi Gary,
   with regards to disabling my plugins, how can I do that when my wp-admin and my website is a blank white screen to date? That means I cannot even access the site let alone change it.

   Hi Smaboll,
   I'm not sure myself where exactly to put it as a matter of fact, i've tried placing it in sidebar.php under the wordpress editor, it didn't come out, so i tried any other possible means and that's when the blank white screen occured and i'm still trying to figuring out different ways to edit it accordingly.

   my webmail and cpanel still works, just not the wp-admin and the website display.

   it's a problematic error which i've made..

   You can disable your plugins by logging into your site with a FTP client then temporarily renaming your plugin folders.

   Here's a link outlining a few methods of disabling plugins when you dont' have access to your site's backend.

   but than the issue isn't with the plugins, its the stylesheet which i was last at, that i edited, and the blank white screen appeared.

   that's the place which i need to correct and is thinking, trying out ways to do just that.

   btw: is there anybody who knows how to use the "cpbackup-exclude-used-by-backup.conf" as shown in the FTP account?

   how do I go about using this backup to restore to the previous settings since it was last modified only on 11/3/10 so I will not risk losing much details after the restoration if there's any possible way of using that backup.

    Hey Lenk,

    Thanks for your link, although the plugins that section didn't help, but in that same page link you gave, i found the answer to my question.

    wp-contents
    go to my theme and replace the last modified php and css to the original version and only lost 2-3 blog entries.

    that hyperlink was a life saver. thanks and deeply appreciated, now it's back and running. =)
