Theme missing from blog (6 posts)

    I have a dormant blog that has lost its theme, leaving it just raw text and links:
    http://futuristmovies.com/blog/

    The theme used to work, and there are files under ...wp-content/themes.

    Any ideas, please? Thanks.

    Double check that your style.css is there, I couldn't find it.

    The code is looking for your stylesheet at
    http://www.futuristmovies.com/blog/index.php/wp-content/themes/blix/style.css

    That URL brings up a 404 - page not found

    Find out what happened to your stylesheet

    buddha trance, stvwlf -- Thanks. I didn't do this installation, so I'm new to this.

    Both the blix theme folders seem to have style.css files. However, they are not in the URL that stvwlf cites -- and doesn't that URL not make sense, with that intervening /index.php? Can I tell it to look for the stylesheet in the correct place?

    Check header.php of your theme. Do you have something like this?

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>" type="text/css" media="screen" />

    FYI: I got
    http://www.futuristmovies.com/blog/index.php/wp-content/themes/blix/style.css

    from doing a View Source on your home page. If that is an invalid URL (which it of course is) then you must find out how WP is constructing that URL - from what buddha trance suggested - you need to see what bloginfo('stylesheet_url') equates to
