 * Ok I did everything I can and even did a live chat with some from Hostgator. 
   And all we been able to discover is that it’s the responsive theme that has all
   the problems. I activated another theme, then uploaded my PDF file and it was
   viewable and everything was working fine, then I left it that way and then activated
   the responsive them again and it didn’t work, I got the same error message as
   before. I even deleted the responsive theme off my wordpress, then I re-uploaded
   it then activated it and nothing worked. So my only options now is to contact
   the theme’s owner or change my theme. Which I don’t wanna do because I like the
   responsive theme. Smh I thought creating a website on WordPress was suppose to
   be simple.

 * I don’t know how to re-upload the same theme, I went to Dashboard>Appearances
   >Themes and when I typed in Responsive it said already installed. Also yes I 
   always update, I thought it was a good thing, but I’ve been having a problem 
   uploading files since 2 updates ago, it only shows pictures in my media files
   when I click “View”

 * Yea probably but won’t I lose all my content? I created an entire bio, custom
   widgets, picture galleries, it took alot of time, and I don’t want to upload 
   the theme again then have to start over.
