Recovering A Broken Template, Using Edit Html
Friday, February 12, 2016
Edit
I have, for a long time, recommended regular template backups, for those who similar to tweak the template.
Normal backup uses the "Backup" wizard, on the dashboard Template page. When backed up, an XML file, containing the template code, is extracted in addition to saved locally. To restore, the "Restore" sorcerer is used in addition to a previous Backup XML file selected.
That's how Backup / Restore should run - but it isn't ever that easy.
With the electrical flow moving ridge of bX codes, being used to diagnose the "Error 500", the Template dashboard page may non last accessible.
This is the representative fifty-fifty attempting take away access, using the navbar "Design" link, or a mitt generated equivalent.
With simply about blogs, the Template Editor may last OK - alongside the Template page broken.
For simply about weblog owners who cannot usage the dashboard Template page, the Template Editor aka Template "Edit HTML" may last accessible. This volition require using a mitt generated URL - since in that place is no take away link to the Template Editor.
If the Template Editor tin last accessed directly, the weblog possessor may last able to continue.
The weblog possessor has a possible solution, inward this case.
Access the Template Editor for the broken blog, inward 1 browser window.
Use a mitt generated URL, to access the Template Editor. If you lot tin practise this much, you lot are good on the agency to getting your weblog back.
If you lot genuinely experience the need, you lot tin backup what's there, earlier you lot glue over what you lot have. Ctrl - H5N1 in addition to then Ctrl - C to re-create - in addition to then Ctrl - V, into a novel text document - that you lot tin save, at your convenience.
Setup a novel blog, using a construct clean template, inward a instant browser window.
Blogs are free, thence make a novel one. Select the "Simple" template, for best results.
Access the Template Editor for the novel blog.
For the novel blog, you lot tin usage the dashboard menu, in addition to Template - "Edit HTML".
Copy the novel weblog template, to the broken blog.
With the Template Editor window for the novel blog, containing a valid template, re-create its contents (Ctrl - H5N1 in addition to then Ctrl - C) - into the Template Editor window for the broken weblog (Ctrl - H5N1 in addition to then Ctrl - V).
Save the at nowadays recovered electrical flow weblog template.
Hit "Save template". And tell a brief prayer.
Refresh the post template.
This may non last necessary - but you should reckon it. It has saved a few blogs.
Clear cache, cookies, in addition to sessions, restart the browser, in addition to attempt again.
This is always a expert idea, when clearing bX codes.
It's a workaround - non perfect, but it may teach the weblog going again.
This is non a perfect solution. If you lot are tired of the bX codes, in addition to if this volition teach your weblog operational, you lot may honour it useful, however. It's likewise possible that this mistake is purpose of a larger work - in addition to you lot quest a persistent solution.
If you lot accept a template dorsum up, you lot tin apply that afterward the weblog is dorsum inward service. And your readers accept stopped emailing you lot alongside angry complaints. Just usage a construct clean backup.
