Title: Possible bug issue??? Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # Possible bug issue??? * Resolved [mwelch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mwelch/) * (@mwelch) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/possible-bug-issue/) * Hi All, * Installed WP in a subdirectory for a client recently and have ran into a problem I can’t figure out. Here’s the issue: * BTW: WP in yahoo was basically a quick install- not a manual one. The wp version available through Yahoo business was an older version- so I did an automatic upgrade after the install- not sure if this may be the root of the issue. * Installed pre-purchased theme with no issues. Proceeded to add pages and widgets and noticed that although displaying on the backend, changes were not displaying live. It was only **AFTER** I switched to the WP default theme and switched back again did the changes take place. * FYI: I deactivated ALL but the following plugins that were preinstalled already when I installed WP on Yahoo Small Bus cpanel to rule out conflicts with plugins: - Askimet -Customizable Permalinks -WP db backup -Contact Form 7 (installed after theme install) * The author of the template believes it’s a yahoo issue and not a template issue, yet I don’t have this problem when I switch to other other templates???? * Unfortunately Yahoo does not offer WP tech support, so really hoping someone has heard about this issue before and can give me some feedback on how to fix it. * Here is the link for the website [http://micromilestones.com/wordpress/](http://micromilestones.com/wordpress/) * Thanks for your help!!

If so, perhaps it’s a caching issue. Try making a change and then clear the browsers cache and refresh. * Moderator [James Huff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) * (@macmanx) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/possible-bug-issue/#post-1482477) * If it’s not a browser cache issue, see [this article](http://codex.wordpress.org/I_Make_Changes_and_Nothing_Happens) for other helpful suggestions. * Thread Starter [mwelch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mwelch/) * (@mwelch) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/possible-bug-issue/#post-1482484) * I tried the clearing my cache and it didn’t help. Will check out that article now…thanks! * Thread Starter [mwelch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mwelch/) * (@mwelch) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/possible-bug-issue/#post-1482522) * ok think I found the culprit although now I don’t know how to fix it! * The article suggested it may be the wp cache plugin. This plugin was actually already installed when I did the WP install. Anyway, I deactivated it. * Now after reading the article thought that may be the culprit, I decide to delete the plugin to see if it would correct the problem and my site and admin are completely blank now. * I’m assuming at this point I’m going to have to uninstall WP folders/files and then reinstall. BTW is there a proper protocol for this, or is it basically just deleting the files via ftp? * It’s in a subdirectory, so I’m hoping deleting the files and reinstalling won’t cause issues. that is it’s under mysite.com/wordpress * Moderator [James Huff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) * (@macmanx) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/possible-bug-issue/#post-1482541) * Yes, I’d start with deleting and re-uploading all of the files from a fresh WordPress download. If that doesn’t work, and you don’t mind losing all of your data, you could do a full re-instal of WordPress, which involves deleting and recreating the MySQL databases and deleting and re-uploading all of the files. * Thread Starter [mwelch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mwelch/) * (@mwelch) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/possible-bug-issue/#post-1482542) * will give that a shot…thanks!! * Moderator [James Huff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) * (@macmanx) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/possible-bug-issue/#post-1482543) * Good luck! * Thread Starter [mwelch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mwelch/) * (@mwelch) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/possible-bug-issue/#post-1482581) * Hi Again, * So step 1 did resolve the issue so working on step 2. I ran into something interesting and wondering if someone has heard of this before?? * I in the process of trying to create a new db for the new install and I noticed in my phpMyAdmin the database that was corrected with the original wp install contains a table named **falbum_cache** * Looked it up and it said it was a wp plugin yet couldn’t find this plugin in the plugin directory???? * Could this be the source of the issue??? it was not showing in the wp admin when the site was still running. * Thinking of dropping the table and seeing if that corrects the issue but want to make sure it’s not something important. * Thanks again!! * Thread Starter [mwelch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mwelch/) * (@mwelch) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/possible-bug-issue/#post-1482590) * forget…just successful created a new db and did a fresh install of wp and site is back up again. * thanks again for your help!!
