Hope that helps narrow it down for you. </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/blank-screens#post-24744 Sun, 08 Jan 2012 20:42:01 +0000 violetabella 24744@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Ok, so I finished up a theme, but when I installed it I get a blank white screen for the website and for the wordpress dashboard.

I knew it was obviously CSS related, and I was just thinking it was something I had forget to style.</p> <p>I usually create my all-ie-only.css stylesheet(s) at the very end of development, and this time, I apparently just copied them over from another theme.

I've been using Themeatic for a number of months now, and haven't ran into this problem until now.</p> <p>Basically, in all versions of Internet Explorer, the navigation for my clients website shows up with a white background. I haven't set a color for the background of the navigation (As can be seen by viewing the site in Chrome, Opera, etc.), so it seem's to be inheriting that style somewhere else by default.</p> <p>The site can be viewed here:</p> <p><a href="http://jtm.kellylawrence.ca">http://jtm.kellylawrence.ca</a></p> <p>As mentioned previously, I haven't ran into this problem before with any of my other Thematic based websites, and I'm sure it's a simple CSS issue that I've missed. Any help would be greatly appreciated! </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/left-side-white-space-disappears-in-internet-explorer#post-5357 Fri, 24 Jul 2009 23:06:24 +0000 amygail 5357@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Looks good.<br /> I'm not seeing the analytics script anywhere in your source though - bump again if you still need help </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/left-side-white-space-disappears-in-internet-explorer#post-5356 Fri, 24 Jul 2009 22:56:34 +0000 sbdesign 5356@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>i had been loading the script as a plugin via teh analyticator or some such tool. during the installation progress, i had initially attempted to load the script somewhere else. once i disabled the plugin and removed the script where it had been forgotten, the white space issue cleared. i have since plugged the analytics script into the functions.php file and updated it. everything is working properly as far as page appearance. ill check analytics tomorrow to see if it is working again.</p> <p>i finally got some work up in the portfolio section as well.</p> <p><a href="http://scotbaileydesign.com/portfolio/furniture/cut-fold-table/" rel="nofollow">http://scotbaileydesign.com/portfolio/furniture/cut-fold-table/</a><br /> <a href="http://scotbaileydesign.com/portfolio/jewelry/cut-fold-earrings/" rel="nofollow">http://scotbaileydesign.com/portfolio/jewelry/cut-fold-earrings/</a></p> <p>thanks again </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/left-side-white-space-disappears-in-internet-explorer#post-5354 Fri, 24 Jul 2009 21:50:54 +0000 amygail 5354@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>I think I confused you.<br /> "thematic_after" is a hook that you'd use in your functions.php - </p> <p>how are you loading the script now? - Is it a plugin or a function?</p> <p>This plugin seems to be a good choice - it loads the script at the end of the page (I don't use it - so I don't speak from experience)<br /> <a href="http://yoast.com/wordpress/google-analytics/" rel="nofollow">http://yoast.com/wordpress/google-analytics/</a> </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/left-side-white-space-disappears-in-internet-explorer#post-5352 Fri, 24 Jul 2009 20:51:06 +0000 sbdesign 5352@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>when i go into my editor under appearance, i dont have a theme file under that name. that may be an old theme file that i dont have. i just got the theme recently. removing the g analytics script did fix the problem of the white space. i just need to figure out where to stick the analytics back in now. </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/left-side-white-space-disappears-in-internet-explorer#post-5351 Fri, 24 Jul 2009 20:36:30 +0000 sbdesign 5351@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>thats probably it<br /> thanks </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/left-side-white-space-disappears-in-internet-explorer#post-5350 Fri, 24 Jul 2009 20:00:01 +0000 amygail 5350@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Are you using a plugin to load google-analytics.com/ga.js ? - try disabling that.</p> <p>If you're loading it through a function - try loading it into 'thematic_after' </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/left-side-white-space-disappears-in-internet-explorer#post-5349 Fri, 24 Jul 2009 19:52:52 +0000 sbdesign 5349@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Thanks<br /> I'll try it out. </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/left-side-white-space-disappears-in-internet-explorer#post-5345 Fri, 24 Jul 2009 19:30:34 +0000 amygail 5345@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Scott, run your "no white space page" through this <a href="http://validator.w3.org/" rel="nofollow">http://validator.w3.org/</a></p> <p>there are a few errors that may be giving you trouble.</p> <p>Hopefully someone with more of a clue will answer you - but I do see that there's a script that's loading before your doctype - I'm thinking that MAY be an issue </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/left-side-white-space-disappears-in-internet-explorer#post-5343 Fri, 24 Jul 2009 18:29:02 +0000 sbdesign 5343@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>I'm new to the website game and wanted to build a simple site for my design company.</p> <p>has white space: <a href="http://scotbaileydesign.com/" rel="nofollow">http://scotbaileydesign.com/</a><br /> no white space: <a href="http://scotbaileydesign.com/portfolio/" rel="nofollow">http://scotbaileydesign.com/portfolio/</a></p> <p>I have been working in firefox and when i sent the link to someone using explorer the left side white space was gone on all the pages but the front page. i checked on several other computers using explorer and it seems to be recurring. </p>
