• After upgrading to 2.8.4, my Activate option went away in theme selection. Is this a bug? Has it been moved? Logged in as admin and it acts as if I haven’t got the right permission to change the theme.

    This has happened to all upgraded web pages.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Have you tried:

    – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    – switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-related problems?

    resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    Thanks for the advice. I should have thought of plug-ins being the problem. The first one I tried was the culprit. A much loved plug-in which disables the preview was the cause. The plug in name is: “Disable Theme Preview” and disabling it fixed the issue. It worked fine with 2.8.1 but not with 2.8.4.
