I did not install Genesis first. Think this caused some problems.

It looks like your current theme is called "Focus", rename that to something different and it will uninstall the theme for you and you will be able to access WP again.
You mentioned you deleted the old theme also, so make sure you have either twenty ten or twenty eleven installed as a fallback theme.

this is what you need to do laid out right here fixes problem by the way give the thumbs-up to Casey as he did tell you what was right http://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-got-a-warning-and-now-cant-access-wordpress
it seems to me because I do a lot of Genesis/studio press WordPress work. That this gentleman tried to do a simple change that would've worked if he was using the same themes that are out there for 90% of what is offered to WordPress users. However if you are using studio press you must 1st install the Genesis framework is the framework is separate from the theme. If you are actually trying to change the name of the theme itself I don't understand why you would want to do that if you're talking about something that wouldn't be seen by anyone however if you are simply talking about naming it whatever your website is this make sense. Also one thing I strongly advised everyone is use a managed WordPress host when using WordPress you could very simply sign up for WP engine, Zippy kid, pagely or web synthesis and they would fix your problem for you. Give you a hint Zippy kid is the best value and least expensive and extremely high-quality. If you move to any of the hosts I just named you will get these types of problems fixed for free by the host.
Sincerely,

Hi Casey,
Think it's a dumb question but how do I know which theme I am in?
As I said, I was installing a different theme (studio press) from Seneca (graph paper) and whole thing got messed up. - Just a click -
Then I tried to rename Seneca theme (which was originally installed & activated), and finally deleted it.

You need to rename your current theme, not the old theme. Once you rename your current theme that will uninstall that theme and revert to the default theme so you can access WordPress again.

SEO Problems with Loading to a Subfolder?
A client has a single page app website that shows https://example.com/example when you visit https://example.com . I don't think this is a redirect; I think it's a URL rewrite. My questions: Is this setup common with single page apps? What are the SEO benefits or drawbacks of having a domain's homepage load, rewrite, or redirect to a subfolder?

Duplicate Titles on Wordpress blog pages
Hi, I have an issue where I am getting for duplicate page titles for pages that shouldn't exist. The issue is on the blog index page's (from 0 - 16) and involves the same set of attachment_id for each page, i.e. /blog/page/10/?attachment_id=minack /blog/page/10/?attachment_id=ponyrides /blog/page/11/?attachment_id=minack /blog/page/11/?attachment_id=ponyrides There are 6 attachment_id values (and they are not ID values either) which repeat for every page on the index now what I can't work out is where those 6 links are coming from as on the actual blog index page http://www.bosinver.co.uk/blog/page/10/ there are no links to it and the links just go to blog index page and it ignores the attachment_id value. There is no sitemap.xml file either which I thought might have contained the links. Thanks

I'm concerned about the switch as I don't want to hurt my Google positioning, but would like the benefits of a WordPress site. Any assistance and advice is appreciated.

My home page 301 redirects - is this an SEO problem
When ever a browser calls my site canineconcepts.co.uk, it is automatically 301 redirected to canineconcepts.co.uk/en I am not sure if I should be concerned about this from an SEO perspective or not. Any thoughts?

Linking C Class Blocks Problem
Hi 🙂 I've just discovered that my client, who has a medical practice, has created a series of micro sites about their doctors (around 10 or so). The problem is that they're on a shared host with the same C-class, providing no real link benefit at all. Would it be best to: A) Look for seperate C class hosts for each site & migrate B) Recreate the pages on the main site & 301 all doctor micro sites to new pages C) Leave as is and pursue other link building activites? Has anyone run into a similar issue before? Thanks a bunch! Woj

301 redirect problems on site not yet moved
I have re-designed one of my sites, the old site is all static pages on a Windows server, I have made the new sites and it is on a new server and is running on Wordpress. I have just finished testing it and so am nearly ready to switch over the nameservers to the new server, however I'm having some problems with 301 redirects. I have tried to set up a few 301 redirects on the new server to test before I change nameservers but they don't appear to be working. I would have imagined that they should (even though the actual page isn't hosted on the new server) or am I being very stupid here and I can't test a 301 redirect until the nameservers have been changed. Redirect 301 /magazines.htm http://.../~account/magazine-freebies Obviously the above with the stars (*) is the server address and route to my account.
