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,
Thomas Zickell

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.

Problem with Wordpress RSS feed and Feedburner
Just discovered a problem with my company site's RSS feed. I'm a bit embarrassed to ask, but I thought someone in the community might have encountered this -- and I cannot figure it out for the life of me! We had redirected our Wordpress feed to Feedburner. We publish at least once per week, but no posts after March 18 are in the feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheClineGroup The standard (Wordpress) RSS feed page does not load: http://theclinegroup.com/feed/ Of course, I deactivated all plug-ins to see if one of them was the issue, but the problem(s) still existed. Thanks so much for any assistance!

Duplicated rel=author tags (x 3) on WordPress pages, any issue with this?
Hi,
Technical SEO | | jeffwhitfield
We seem to have duplicated rel=author tags (x 3) on WordPress pages, as we are using Yoast WordPress SEO plugin which adds a rel=author tag into the head of the page and Fancier Author Box plugin which seems to add a further two rel=author tags toward the bottom of the page. I checked the settings for Fancier Author Box and there doesn't seem to be the option to turn rel=author tags off; we need to keep this plugin enabled as we want the two tab functionality of the author bio and latest posts. All three rel=author tags seem to be correctly formatted and Google Structured Data Testing Tool shows that all authorship rel=author markup is correct; is there any issue with having these duplicated rel=author tags on the WordPress pages?
I tried searching the Q&A but couldn't find anything similar enough to what I'm asking above. Many thanks in advance and kind regards.0 -
Author schema and Wordpress Author Page
Hi everyone, Has anyone tried using the author schema on their Wordpress author page or on their G+ profile or on their Moz profile? Would it be a good idea to always use it where you publish? I publish on several blogs Thanks Carla example: Use it here - http://www.posicionamientowebenbuscadores.com/blog/author/carla/ http://moz.com/community/users/392216 It seems like I would be over doing it.

How do you handle Wordpress sitemaps within your site?
I have a regular site map on my site and I also have a Wordpress site installed within it that we use for blog/news content. I currently have an auto-sitemap generator installed in Wordpress which automatically updates the sitemap and submits it to the search engines each time the blog is updated. The question I have (which I think I know the answer to but I just want to confirm) is do I have to include all of the articles within the blog in the main site's sitemap despite the Wordpress sitemap having them in there already? If I do include the articles in the main website's sitemap, they would also be in the Wordpress sitemap as well, which is redundant. Redundancy is not good, so I just want to make sure.

302 Redirects & WordPress
Hi Mozzers- We started a WordPress blog for one of my clients to help improve the domain authority, increase visits, etc. a few months ago. I ran a crawl report a few days ago and noticed that the /trackback/ pages are getting redirected to the appropriate page using a 302 redirect not a 301 redirect. I've search through the forum looking for other similar questions and found one. The answer suggested that I use the TAC plugin and check for any malicious code. I did this and found nothing. Another response suggested using the Redirection plugin. I haven't tried this yet. Has anyone encountered this and if so, how did you deal with it. Thank you! LHC

How to rewrite WordPress permalinks for reverse proxy?
Our main site, www.domain.com, is on an IIS 6 server. When we started our blog, we wanted to put it in a subdirectory (domain.com/blog), but we couldn't because our IT people refused to support it. Instead, we built it on a third-party Apache server and configured it to open under blog.domain.com. However, I came across this SEOmoz post about the glories of reverse proxies, so I've persuaded our IT people to take a swing at it. We got it to work on a staging server, but the permalinks won't change (still appear as blog.domain.com/slug). The IT guys say it's due to a configuration problem with WordPress. Can somebody out there point me in the right direction as far as working out the URL issues with this?
