They are as follows: - flagallery - gallery - plugins - themes - uploads - In doing this, the dashboard is not broken. I am not able to see anything on the right side of the menu when I click on the different items. - What would cause this? - Thanks for your help in advance.

The theme that is being used on the original is not on the new. * The media is not there as well. * I know I will have to copy some of the folders over using the FTP, but I am not sure of all of them that I need. * Thanks again for all of your help in advance.
