activated a new theme, can't get to dashboard
www.emptynosesyndrome.org/vanilla
I can't get to the dashboard once I activated even though i'm still logged in. Anyone have any idea's of how I can get to the dashboard to change the theme? As is anything I click on brings me back to the same page.
Thanks
David

Is there a way to change the theme via ftp or is there a dashboard url? There's no working dashboard link
BTW, its the bootstrap theme if it makes any difference
Thanks
there should be a dropdown link to the right in the nav bar, it is in there.
grep is your friend.
you can also point to

Top right hand corner is my name with a tiny down arrow. highlighting it doesn't bring down a menu. clicking on it does nothing.
Tried firefox,IE and chrome
you can also point to http://www.emptynosesyndrome.org/dashboard
this url brings me to the wordpress login screen
I tried this url but I get a 404 error
http://www.emptynosesyndrome.org/vanilla/dashboard
do this
http://www.emptynosesyndrome.org/vanilla/?p=dashboard
you haven't got rewrite urls on.
Note that theme (which I haven't used) has specific instructions about updating jQuery. Not something I’d recommend generally certainly you want to save the previous version of jquery before doing this.
Anyway if theme is working and you have the right permissions, the dropdown should work.

Tried

Thanks for your quick responses

How do I turn rewrites on?
Sorry I'm doing this off the top of my head should be
http://www.emptynosesyndrome.org/vanilla/?p=dashboard/settings
grep is your friend.

Thanks for the great support!!

Only turn rewites on if your sever rule are working (e.g .htaccess). you should be able to replace
http://www.emptynosesyndrome.org/vanilla/?p=uri
withhttp://www.emptynosesyndrome.org/vanilla/uri
if so where uri is your location such asdiscussions
You can set it in conf/config.php
$Configuration['Garden']['RewriteUrls'] = TRUE;
you can set a theme like so
$Configuration['Garden']['Theme'] = default';
grep is your friend.
If the bootstrap theme isn't workign you should talk to @kasperisager

New to this, how do I know if my server rule is working? I do know where to edit the .htaccess file and config.php
Oh the joys of not reading the installation instructions! The Bootstrap menus won't work unless you carefully follow the README - Vanilla 2.0 ships with jQuery 1.something-that-isn't-7.2 and the menues therefore won't work unless you manually update the core jQuery library to 1.7.2, as specified in the installation instruction. I see that you changed the theme though - that's an acceptable workaround I guess :-)
In any event, if you decide to take the Bootstrap theme for a spin feel to send me a PM or start a new discussion if you encounter any problems along your way!
