# Overlapping partial frames on site refresh

 * This is a new install of WP 3.2.1 with the LaunchEffect theme from Barrel Design
   installed, but the problem occurs no matter which theme I use. When I open the
   site ([launch.flammcon.info](http://launch.flammcon.info)) it looks OK. But if
   I login to modify the site, when I view it, there will be 2 copies of the site–
   and more if I go back and forth. Basically, every time I click the Dashboard 
   link on the control bar, I get another partial instance of the site.
 * I don’t know if you will be able to recreate the problem, since I assume you 
   have to login to get it started. I’m just wondering if this is a known phenomenon
   which indicates an install or permissions problem, or if this is some new issue(
   seems unlikely, but I couldn’t find a similar description of the problem).

 * Have you tried:
 * – deactivating **all** plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works,
   re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
 * – switching to the Twenty Eleven theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.
 * – [resetting the plugins folder](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F)
   by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause
   problems.

 * esmi,
 * I deleted everything from the root folder and reinstalled WP. Once I got TwentyEleven
   working, I reinstalled the LaunchEffect theme, and now it seems to be working.
   I’m not quite sure what’s different – all I can think of is some template file
   got corrupted during the previous install.
 * Thanks for your help,
 * Eric
