# 'Customize' page not working

 * I had to do a manual update of wordpress the other day because Make seems to 
   give me issues with updating WordPress and a couple of plugins (e.g. WP SlimStat).
   I noticed afterwards that the background colour on the site (www.rosewoods.co.
   uk) had changed from black to grey. I went to the ‘Customize’ page under ‘Appearance’
   but the page just loads to a blank grey page (screenshot here: [http://imgur.com/IKnbmfG](http://imgur.com/IKnbmfG)).
   In the tab title it says it’s loading but I get nothing. Any ideas how I can 
   get the customizer back to I can put the site back the way it was?
 * Thanks.

 * Hi there,
 * Sorry you’re experiencing this issue. Sounds like a plugin incompatibility. I
   would start by deactivating all your plugins to see if the issue persists, and
   then adding them back one at a time to find the culprit.
 * Good luck!

 * Just tried that but still didn’t work even with all of the plugins deactivated.

 * Hey eckh20, sorry I didn’t realize I was responding to another user!!
 * There has been a new version of Make released. If you update your theme does 
   the issue persist?

 * Hi Melissa
 * I’m not using a fresh install of WordPress and Make (not plus). They are both
   up to date (no plug-ins installed). I’m having the same issue. I get a white 
   screen on the Customise and Background pages.

   I was so ready to upgrade to Make Plus yesterday…now having doubts.

 * Hi folks,
 * I haven’t been able to replicate this issue thus far. If you can give me more
   info about your setup, that would be helpful. Specifically:
 * * Version of WordPress you’re using
    * Version of Make you’re using * Which browser
   you’re using * Version of PHP your web server has
 * One easy way to gather all this info and send it to us is to use the [Send System Info](https://wordpress.org/plugins/send-system-info/)
   plugin and send via email to **info [at] thethemefoundry.com**

 * My wordpress and Theme were up to date…but not the PHP. Updating the PHP seemed
   to do the trick. Thanks.

 * [@chris276](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chris276/) thanks for the update,
   and I’m glad that fixed the problem for you! Which version of PHP did you have
   before you updated it?

 * To be honest I never looked, just updated to 5.1.
