    First – I’m sorry if I am asking a question on a resolved issue. I have tried to search questions and forums, but have not been able to find a solution to my problem.
    I am a novice in WordPress and homepages, but have been able to create one, none the less. However, new computer had me going at my homepage again. The theme I have made my homepage on is sugar&spice, which I knew would no longer be supported or updated, so I have been in process of deciding on a new theme. Here the problem arises. I have updated WP and all plugins. but when I try to change the theme, all i get is a blanck preview screen with a 0 in top left corner, and no change to my homepage.
    I have no clue what to do, and I am not, unfortunately, understanding all the code language in the other posts.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated, so I can continue with updating my homepage.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Maybe you have a error from code, first enable debug mode and change WP_DEBUG to true value, in wp-config.php from root wordpress directory and send me the message when you try to change de theme

    example define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, true );

    Hi jjvasques
    thank you for replying so quickly.
    I wish I understood – sorry, I am a total novice at this WP – I will try to find out how to do what you suggest, and let you know what happens. I will probably not be able to do this until later today at home. 🙂

    I finally found the wp-config.php file, and changed to true in define debug, as you worte.
    I now get a page full of messages when looking at my website through WP controlpanel:
    Unfortunately half of it is in danish :), but I hope it still makes sense to you.
    I can’t upload or insert the picture of the page as it looks, so if you can’t see it, please let me know how to display the errormessages for you.
    🙂

    Part of the problem is that it looks like you are using a theme that is not supported in these forums.

    Try these steps.

    1. Backup all your wp-content/themes/chef directory to somewhere off of your web server.
    2. Once that is done and you are sure the theme is safe and backed up, then delete the chef directory in wp-content/themes. Just that one chef directory and nothing else.
    3. Now visit this link and select a different theme. http://kagedillen.fam-freltofte.dk/wp-admin/themes.php You will get an error message but that is fine for now.

    After you do that does the theme change to the one you have selected? Can you get into the backend of your installation after that?
