Blank Screen after modification to post-template.php

    Hello everyone,

    Today I encountered a few blank screen issues and I had resolved some of them with the help of FTP. The last issue I just cannot seem to resolve on my own. I would appreciate it if you could help me. My website is http://www.alelumum.com . I cannot access my wp-admin as well.

    After I read on some page that I had to change 1 code in the post-template.php (wp-includes) file, I did this and my website has been blank since. I undid the changes by replacing the new code with its authentic form, but it doesn’t seem to work. What should I do?

    The code I replaced was the following:

    
),
			__( ‘(more…)’ )
		);

I had changed it with
),
			__( ‘(Daha fazlasini oku...)’ )
		);

    for language purposes.

    replace that file with a clean version you obtain by downloading a fresh copy of WordPress. Do not modify core files.

    If you need to change the “more” prompt, use the proper filters via functions in your theme’s functions.php file.

    Thank you so much Steve Stern! I learned a lot from this. My problem is solved.

    I think I will not touch anything anymore, especially not the function.php, as I got several blank screens because of messing with it. 😀 Thanks again!

    Always make a copy of files you modify so you can upload the original if (when) you fudge it up. 🙂 That’s a rule for everyone, from novices through the most advanced users.
