# Theme Change – WP Cache Problem?

 * HELP! I went to change my theme in my dashboard and when I clicked the “Activate”
   button the whole screen went blank. I can’t even get back to my dashboard. Go
   To: [http://www.northwestgolfing.com](http://www.northwestgolfing.com) and you
   will see.
 * I had WP Cache running and I think it has something to do with this cache program.
   Completely blank page. Can anyone help? Do I need to go to my server and remove
   the cache plugin manually or will that cause more problems?
 * Thanks… Steve

 * From your site:
 * > <!– WP Super Cache is installed but broken. The path to wp-cache-phase1.php
   > in wp-content/advanced-cache.php must be fixed! –>
 * FTP into your site and rename the wp-content/plugins/wp-super-cache folder.

 * I don’t understand what you mean by renameing it? I erased the whole wp plugin
   from my ftp and the cache file… Now what do I do?

 * You’ll probably need to delete a reference to the cache plugin in your wp-config.
   php file too: `define('WP_CACHE', true);`
 * (keep a backup of your wp-config.php before you make any changes to it)
 * Bit of further reading if it still causes a problem…

 * Help… I’m still broken and show blank page.
 * I erased WP Super Cache and I erased the Theme that freaked when I activated 
   it but still blank page. I went to the advanced cache folder but I don’t know
   what to do with the couple lines of code to fix it. Any thoughts?
 * I don’t have a wp-config.php file or something that is labled as that.

 * Look inside the folder you installed WordPress into.
