 * Followed your suggestion. It worked. Once I reactivated my theme, I reactivated
   all my plugins one by one and checking in between each time. I found which plugin
   is causing the problem with the new version of WordPress.
    Thanks for your help!
   🙂

 * Okay, we are making progress … thanks for all your help!
 * I figured out that the problem resides in my shopping cart plugin. I have been
   using wp-e-commerce but now with the new version of WordPress it is not working.
   I went to look if they have an upgrade available, but I can’t even find it on
   the shopping cart list.
    I basically use paypal so I need a new shopping cart
   system that will work with Paypal, preferably a free one, of course. Is there
   one you can recommend? Thanks again, Ghislaine

 * Here is what I did:
    – rename “plugins” folder to “plugins-hold” – create new
   folder “plugins” When I did that,, the site reappeared and I was able to go to
   my admin.
 * – transferred all my plugins folders from “plugins-hold” folder to new “plugins”
   folder.
    When I did that, the site disappeared again.
 * – I did rename my “Thesis-16” folder to “Thesis-16-old” and that did not seem
   to accomplish anything either before or after I moved the plugins from one folder
   to the other.
 * So I still have not resolved my problem. I wonder if I need to upgrade my Thesis-
   16 as well? Could that be part of the solution?
    Are you familiar with Thesis
   themes?

 * These are the steps I took to reset the plugins folder:
 * Create an empty plugins folder
 *  * Via FTP or your host’s control panel, navigate to the wp-contents folder (
   directory)
    * Via FTP or your host’s control panel, rename the folder “plugins”
   to “plugins.hold” * Via FTP or your host’s control panel, create new folder called“
   plugins” * Login to your WordPress administration menus * Via FTP or your host’s
   control panel, delete the empty “plugins” you previous created * Via FTP or your
   host’s control panel, rename “plugins.hold” back to “plugins”

 * Interesting … when I reset the plugins folder, I could see the site again (without
   the plugins of course). Once I deleted the “new” plugins folder and renamed plugins-
   hold to plugins, the site disapeared again.
 * Does that mean I need to reinstall all my plugins in the “new” plugins folder?

 * Thanks Esmi … I just need some clarification before I do anything:
 * My theme is Thesis-16 so what do I name my current Thesis-16 folder? and what
   will happen once I do that?
 * I am not a pro so I need just a bit more help, thank you!
