My whole site disappeared. I clicked on update the theme functions then it went to nothing but a white screen. I had been working on a widget that didn't work properly. The widget had some things to try. Before i tried them i copied the original code & saved it in word pad. I decided not to use the widget any more & I copied & pasted the original code back in & then clicked update & it went to white screen.Is there any hope?

I'm having the same issue: http://coloredgirlspeak.com
I activated a theme, can't remember which one I activated now (in shock at getting a white screen. No admin panel, dashboard nothing. wth happened??
@ Kimc333
why not just upload a fresh file over the one you were working on?
@ coloredgirlspeak
ftp to your site and rename themes except default theme
this should bring up default theme and let you figure it out
rename themes back to test

@sambell...thank u for the quick reply! question...what do you ftp to my site? go to Godaddy and access my Control Panel and rename the themes? I'm sorry :( I have basic knowledge of this ish lol
access my Control Panel and rename the themes
you can do it that way - it's just slower

Sam, I went into cPanel...renamed the theme (added'1' to each theme name) except the default theme...still a white page.

yikes - then we need to get serious
delete the .htaccess in wordpress root
does it work now? If so, generate permalinks
admin - settings - permalinks
if that doesn't work, add this line to `wp-config.php anywhere after opening php statement
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');

[Root] (no subfolders),and another folder labeled 'access_db' (no subfolders)...shall I delete 'access_db'?
Thanks, Sam :)

I just had this happen to me. After my initial panic, I went into Dreamweaver and deleted the files for the new theme that I had just uploaded, remotely and locally, and then sent the wp-admin files back up to the site and that fixed the problem. Makes me nervous about trying out any new themes, however.
