   Hi all,

   I can access the main admin backend for a WP-MU install OK.

   However one of the blogs backend has dissapeared - I suspect a theme/plugins issue. Is there a way I can disable the theme and plugins for this blog from the main admin panel? Or am I going to have to manually edit the db?

   Thanks.

   Usual approach is to use FTP to rename any suspect plugin(s) out the way, then visit the blog. If that's the cause, you'll get in, and the plugins will be deactivated automatically.

   Thanks for the reply - in this instance FTP-ing to the box is quite a pain - it's all controlled by CVS & update scripts.

   I decided to turn off the plugins for the blog by editing the db manually. For those who find themselves in a similar situation, it's in the wp_options table....

   UPDATE wp_X_options SET option_value='a:0:{}' WHERE option_name='active_plugins'

   ....where X is your blog id.

   I was then able to get into the backed and re-anable the plugins one by one until I found the issue.
