Dashboard not displaying properly

    The dashboard on my wp-admin has suddenly stopped functioning correctly. The menu sidebar displays, but the rest of the screen is blank. When I click on some of the sidebar menu items the content is displayed, but nothing appears on the opening dashboard page. I have put a screenshot here: http://users.on.net/~jtnoble/Dashboard/dashboard.jpg
    I’m only guessing about the version I’m using because I can’t get into the dashboard to find which version. On the menu items I can see, it is telling me to update to 3.8 but when I click to update it goes back to a blank page again.
    Any suggestions and help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Did you figure this out? Having exactly the same problem, v3.3.1

    Yea, I got it figured out. Apparently, there are a few different reasons for this happening. In my case, it was a pretty easy fix. My host (bluehost) had changed their PHP config from 5.2 to 5.4. I’m not really versed on this, but that was the only thing that had changed. So, I just reverted it back to 5.2, updated everything on WP, then went back to 5.4. After that, it was fine. From what I’ve read though, its usually the add-ons on you wp-admin. They say to disable those first, then one by one go through them to see what the problem is. Hopefully that helps. good luck
