    after deactivating a SEO plugin and activating the Yoost SEO. I lost access to the administrative panel. How can I get it back? My backup and restore is part of WP_admin.

    Try manually resetting your plugins (no Dashboard access required). If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.

    If that does not resolve the issue, access your server via FTP or SFTP, navigate to /wp-content/themes/ and rename the directory of your currently active theme. This will force the default theme to activate and hopefully rule-out a theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

    I have tried everything above with no success. I can’t seem to be able to go to my sites /wp-admin page. It looks like it loads but is a blank screen.
    I have a dropbox-backup directory in my servers root directory, but not sure I can initiate a Restore from there.

    Try downloading WordPress again and delete then replace your copies of everything except the wp-config.php file and the /wp-content/ directory with fresh copies from the download. This will effectively replace all of your core files without damaging your content and settings. Some uploaders tend to be unreliable when overwriting files, so don’t forget to delete the original files before replacing them.
