# Blank multisite admin caused by missing default theme?

 * I’ve followed the setup and installation for multisite but the network admin 
   dashboard, users & site appear blank.
 * I’ve checked the wp-config.php & .htaccess and all seems fine.
 * I understand from previous support forum threads that it might be caused by having
   uninstalled the default theme.
 * However it seems the only way to reinstall a theme is through the network admin
   dashboard which now I can’t see.
 * Is there any way to install a default theme without having to completely reinstall
   wordpress?
 * Any and all suggestions would be most welcome.
 * Many thanks

 * Download WordPress from [http://wordpress.org/download/](http://wordpress.org/download/)
 * Get the theme folder (wp-content/themes/twentyeleven)
 * Upload that via FTP to your site.
