Start by sorting out the validation errors on the site.

Wow….how do I even DO that? It says 115 errors? How did that happen all of a sudden. It was running fine until the upgrade.

So where Do I go to find and fix these validation errors. There is no document location given just a line number and a column. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
This happened because of the upgrade.
No – it wasn’t the upgrade. These errors will have pre-existed in your theme/content. You now have to backtrack through your theme’s template files and your site’s content to find and correct them.

so these are all theme based errors?
possibly. A good thing to do when getting your site valid is to turn off plugins. Then see how your errors look. Some plugins introduce crappy markup. So turn them off, get your theme valid….. then worry about plugins

Ok, I deactivated the 4 plugin’s went from 116 errors down to 104. Still extremely overwhelming. I just don’t understand how this happened. It was all fine a few days ago.
So, any suggestions as to where to start?
Also if you notice the main page of the site http://jdmorgan.info/
is totally messed up, however any individual content page is fine….

does that offer any clues?
Thanks for the help…I’m a total novice
You’ve got a couple of problems in header.php but most appear to be in index,.php.

ok so I should be looking in the themes folder for the specific theme…then the index.php file
jdmorgan.info/wp-content/themes/sliding-door.1.5/sliding-door/index.php
Does that seem right? Thing is….I pulled this into a html editor (dreamweaver) and ran a validation check…no errors. So I’m thinking this isn’t the right file?
