In reply to: Help it all went wrong!!I’m glad you got that worked out!
There shouldn’t be anything special to do to install the plugin. Usually you can just use the WP admin plugins panel (Plugins > Add New) to install and activate it. You may want to try first disabling other plugins and trying again with WC, now that you know how to fix it. If it works, start activating the other plugins one at a time to see if one causes a conflict.
If you have trouble again, go to the WooCommerce support forum and explain to them what’s going on. They should be able to help with this. They’re the best ones to ask in this case. Good luck!

In reply to: Help it all went wrong!!You need to delete the WooCommerce plugin. If you can’t access your admin pages, you’ll need to use an FTP client (like FileZilla), or your host’s cPanel (or File Manager) and navigate to the plugin on the server.
In your WP installation there, find
wp-content/pluginsand delete the WooCommerce plugin folder. Hopefully that should allow you to get back into WP admin.If this isn’t something you’re comfortable doing yourself, your web-host support would probably do this for you, or at least help you set up FTP access. Most of them also have help docs to walk you through how to use both FTP (or SFTP) and their FIle Manager.

In reply to: Cannot find wp-content on ftpIf that first image is everything in that directory, that isn’t a WP installation. Look in public_html/ or www/ for the WP files, or for a wp/, wordpress/, or blog/ directory (or something similar) inside public_html. Failing that, contact your hosting provider and let them locate it for you.

In reply to: Cannot find wp-content on ftpIf you don’t see it in the root WP directory (which is the default location), it’s possible that wp-config.php has been moved to the directory directly above that.

In reply to: WordPress RolesYou’re welcome, and good luck.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Cannot find wp-content on ftpTake a look in
wp-config.phpto see if there is adefine('WP_CONTENT_DIR', 'path/to/content')directive present that would have been used to move it elsewhere. If so, you should be able to track it down with the info present in it.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: WordPress RolesIn multisite, I believe that super-admins can allow regular admins to change and customize themes if they like, but as I said, look into this in the documentation.
As far as not removing you as admin, as I said above:
use a custom-roles and capabilities plugin, and create a role that doesn’t have edit_user or delete_user capabilities
There are many to chose from.

In reply to: WordPress RolesI see. Well there’s at least a couple ways of approaching this. If I were intending to sell a site, I would go ahead a set it up as just that: a separate site, that they could really own without it being tied into my other projects or assets.
Another option might be to set up WP as a multisite network, where you have the ability to create new sites as super-admin. Super-admins have capabilities that regular single-site admins do not, such as optionally controlling themes and plugins, etc. I personally have never needed to set up a MS network so you’ll need to look into the details in the codex.

In reply to: Some glitchesI believe Twenty Ten did get an update a few weeks ago. But as a five year old theme, it predates the big push for mobile-responsive layouts and thus has need for a plugin like WP Touch.
I also liked the clean layout of that theme. It may be worth trying out Twenty Fifteen (or even Twenty Thirteen) to see how it suits you. It too is clean and readable, but with the benefit of being responsive on smaller devices. In addition, as a WP default theme, no doubt it will be kept up to date for some time to come at least in terms of security issues.
Lastly, it would be a good idea to try disabling your plugins to see if your issues from the original post above change at all. If it turns out to be one or two plugins causing the trouble, replacing them may buy you an extension with your current theme. Good luck!

In reply to: Internal links to blank pagesI hope that’s a reasonable alternative for you to work with.
I think it might be worthwhile to try re-installing your theme. When I visit the pages that show blank, the content is actually there in the browser, but is not visible. Could be a css problem in the theme because deleting some of the theme’s css then displays the content. Could also be a javascript error but I’m not finding one.
You might also do as Ruchika Karda mentioned above and try a default WP theme to see if it changes.

In reply to: Web pages not showing up in the control editing pageIs the site using a plugin to display only the logged in user’s posts to them in admin? For example, there’s one called ‘Simplify Post Edit List’ that hides posts by other authors from the list.

In reply to: Link To Existing ContentYou might consider making each city a category, marking each post with the correct category, and then using the category link to show the collected posts for that city.
