    Re-upload a fresh copy of the Responsive theme using FTP. And next time, do not edit the theme’s template files. Create a child theme for your changes

    how do I keep my posts and pages and my homepage that I’ve configured, whilst doing what you suggested (i.e. re-uploading fresh copy of the theme)?

    What version of WordPress are you currently running?

    Try re-uploading all files & folders – except the wp-content folder – from a fresh download of WordPress. Make sure that you delete the old copies of files & folder before uploading the new ones.

    Thanks Esmi – will try that the next round. I reinstalled the theme actually and started from scratch since I didn’t have much on the blog before I reinstalled.
