Then you can start de-bugging the old theme. * Thread Starter [jwwiv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jwwiv/) * (@jwwiv) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-460/#post-2738706) * how would i go about that ? i thought i would only be able to see the files * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-460/#post-2738707) * Once you have ftp access, you just need to rename wp-content/themes/thatsdancin to wp-content/themes/thatsdancin-old and that should trigger the activation of the default Twenty Eleven theme automatically.
