 * My host recently upgrade our server and now I am getting the following message
   on [http://www.footzone.com](http://www.footzone.com). Whatever they did is effecting
   all of our websites with wordpress. Any ideas on how to resolve this. Thank you.
   I am using wordpress 2.8.4
 * P.S. this is causing the content in the blog not to show up on the website!

 * My first guess would be a problem with the Event Calendar Plugin you’re using.
   Deactivating the plugin should do the trick.
    Maybe you want to ask the plugin
   author what the problem might be..

 * When I deactivate that plugin, no content shows up on the site!!! So all of the
   posts are just not there.

 * well….your site is only half loading if you look at the source. Something is 
   blocking it from loading
 * sooo…..best bet is to do the standard stuff
 * deactivate all plugins, see if your site works. reactivate one by one til you
   isolate the problem
 * if that doesn’t work, try switching to default theme to see if your theme is 
   culprit

   more infos

 * All plugins are de-activated at this time. I will try switching to default template
   and see if that works.

 * Ok, so it looks like it was my template. How do I go about troubleshooting this?
   I have experience with .php but obviously don’t know everything. What would be
   the best way to try and get this back to my custom layout? Thanks for the tip
   by the way.

 * it can be kind of hard to troubleshoot….
 * I’d look through the template to make sure all divs that open also close
 * Inspect the loop for any errors
 * is it a theme you downloaded, or a custom? You could DL it again, or if its heavily
   customized, DL the original theme and at least use it to compare

 * Its custom, to where i made it. So I was just trying to figure out where in all
   of the wordpress files I’d start looking to try and fix! Thanks.
