 * I can access admin, view pages, posts, etc but the web page is blank.
    It’s as
   if WP cannot see the content folder, so no themes, plug-ins.
 * Can anyone help.
 * Thanks.

 * Have you tried:
 * – deactivating **all** plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works,
   re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
 * – switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?
 * – [resetting the plugins folder](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F)
   by FTP or phpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause
   problems.
 * – re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a **fresh** download
   of WordPress?
 * – increasing the available memory?

 * Hi – I upgraded to 3.0 and it now appears as if my view site/visit site button(
   I can’t remember exactly what it was called) is missing from my dashboard. Is
   there a way to get it back?
 * Thanks!

 * wendymck, that was removed in 3.0. The blog’s title (upper-left corner of the
   dashboard) is now a hyperlink with the same functionality.
 * If for some reason that doesn’t work for you, please start your own topic.

 * azuko,
 * did you have the same problem before your 3.0 upgrade? I had a similar problem(
   but only with IE and can’t remember whether it was before or after 3.0) which
   was called by an error caused by the way I called my style sheets.

 * Azuko, take a look at wp-config.php and ensure that there are no blank lines (
   carriage returns) after the final
 * `?>`
 * Sounds daft, I know, but I had the same problem earlier (blank admin pages) and
   the solution was to delete any blank lines after **?> ** in wp-confg.php

 * Far better to completely delete the final closing `?>` tag in wp-config.php
