Delete the symbiostock folder from the themes and then resinstall the latest version.

You can back it up first if you want, its only around 4mb.

done that many times. There’s another issue.

Waiting for Leo

I have been having problems as well today Steve – just had your white screen problem as well.

Go to either cPanel or your ftp and Delete symbiostock (not childtheme just the parent) = it will probably be in
public-html/wp_content/themes

Then log into your site again and reinstall. You are probably best trying with 2.8 again as I imagine there will come a time when we have little choice

Thats what I said. You and I have a serious communication problem. LOL 🙂

[stevephotoParticipant]

Again I’ve done that…
I’ve done that again…
I’ve done it another time…
For good measure I’ve done it several more times

I always get an error no matter which version I attempt to install.

Thanks – Still waiting for Leo

I’m BACK! I’d ask if you missed me, but why wouldn’t you in a case like this?

[LeoParticipant]

BTW, I’d really love to know whats crashing your site. Before I get you up and running I want to see whats causing it.

[stevephotoParticipant]

thanks

Need anything from my end?

I simply would like to know what you did to break it! Did you click a big red button that says “Self destruct”?

Its fine to roll back, but I’d like to isolate the issue while we’re in beta on this version.

[stevephotoParticipant]

All I did was download the latest version
Zip it
uploaded it via the Install Themes in my WP-Admin area
Activated it
And every thing went south

I tried deleting it from my Bluehost cpanel which got be back into my dashboard
Uploaded the theme into my site via file manager on Bluehost same results.

And I cannot make any version work.

Gimme a few moments to try to duplicate your issue. But I’ll roll you back afterward. I’m just sorting through some things first.

I GOT IT! I figured out what was happening to you.

Your “trashed” theme says:

Name Description
__MACOSX Stylesheet is missing.

When you “unzip” it your taking some of the OS archives with it…

The best way to install a theme is to simply take the zip (unzipped) and upload it here:

I don’t even know where that came from. Should I just delete it.

[LeoParticipant]

You could.

[stevephotoParticipant]

Thanks
I think I have everything back to the way it was.

Now I just need to sort out creating a sub domain and making a test site so I can eventually move to the next version.
