# WordPress no longer visible

 * I went to log in as usual to the wordpress site I am building and found that 
   I could no longer access it. I have installed a newly purchased premium theme
   and uploaded it by ftp but surely that shouldn’t affect my ability to login which
   would surely be at the wordpress root, no?
 * The site isn’t at the domain root but in a sub-folder imaginatively named /wordpress/
   while I develop it.
 * What should I be checking to see what might be causing the site not to load?
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Access your site by FTP and rename the current installed theme. WordPress will
   switch automatically to a Twenty theme. If your backend works again, it’s definitely
   a theme problem.

 * Please, how can I rename the installed theme? I’m already in CPanel, File Manager.
   Thanks.

 * Thanks for that. The theme was the problem. Followed your advice and all’s well
   now. Strange because I’m already using the problem theme on another site without
   any problems. Will trouble shoot the download next week but for now, the site
   is back up and running. Many thanks.
