Please,
I am trying to learn drupal, I have bought books to build a site for my own small business. I was laid-off and am try to get my own shop up and running. I am ready to do a clean install and redo everything I have done so far!
I need Help! please go to www.southview-design.com something tweaked in the code and I don't know code! I am trying to learn it but that will take a while.
I would love to find a great developer to work with to create an install for architects/designers pages like what Prosepoint is doing for newspapers. I have no money to offer but will offer credit on my site and as I learn back to drual.org...
Thank you
Miccal

theme problem
I briefly looked at the errors you're getting - they mean that something is wrong with your theme. A good troubleshooting tip to be certain is to turn off your custom theme and enable Garland. Do you still get the errors? If not, you know your theme is causing the errors.
To troubleshoot further, start by opening the files referenced in the errors - there is a line number given for each error. Go to that file, open it up and go to that line and look for something that may be missing - it can be small like a semi-colon.
Good luck!
Theme problem
How do I change the theme if the broken theme will not let me log in? Can I do this through mySQL? (not that I know a lot about that)
My gut tells me if I could force a theme change I could get this to work...
Thanks,

Those errors generally mean that it can't find the .tpl.php file it's looking for. It looks like the problem is with your override of theme_username(). If you post that code, we can help you more.

thank you
The issue is I haven't done and overriding of the theme! I am reading how but haven't tried it yet. Can I drop in a fresh copy of the theme I am using?
Thanks,

Well, phptemplate_username() has to be coming from somewhere. If you didn't add it, perhaps the theme you're using has a bug. It shouldn't be using phptemplate_username in D6 anyway.

theme
Acquia Slate is the theme. I can't get in to change it though. I would enable another theme if I could. How can I bypass the theme to go to a default?
=-=
delete the the theme folder from your server
then navigate themeless
point to yoursite.com/?q=user
after logging in point to yoursite.com/?q=admin/build/themes
there you will be able to switch to a core theme.
Happy Day sort of
Thank you for how to access the site pages with out clean URL's. Now I managed to get in remove the corrupt theme and get all of my links working again but in order to do this I needed to disable clean URL's.
Now that things look like they are working I want to enable clean URL's again but the radio button is grayed out. I checked the module "path" it is enabled. How do I go about enabling clean URL's again?
Thank to those who helped

If clean urls won't enable you have to check with your host and figure out if mod_rewrite is enabled on the server.

Will do and if it is enabled? what would be the next step?
Mod-rewrite is enabled but I
Mod-rewrite is enabled but I still can not select clean URL's
How do I get around this?

are you sure your .htaccess file is in your installation root?
-
.htaccess is in the /public_html/ I assume this is my installation root.
I have been using the seo check list is there any module that is recommended in the check list that would disable clean URL?
=-=
The only way to know if a module is conflicting is to disable each module one at a time.
Personally, I'd try a test installation on the same server to see if drupal will install with clean urls.
-
It had been working with clean URL's before it crashed, what would happen if I replaced that file with a fresh one?
=-=
you can replace .htaccess as you see fit. Though I don't see where anyhing you were doing would effect the .htaccess file unless that is the file you were playing with when this happened.
Installing a test installation would determine whether the problem is actually on your end or on the host end. If clean urls won't enable on a fresh install, then it has nothing to do with your installation.

Thank you for your continued sharing of knowledge.
as I have mentioned I am new at this, I used an auto script by my host to start with. How and where would I install a test installation?
Thanks again...
I will get this, I learned how to code scripts for AutoCAD...
Miccal
=-=
download drupal from drupal.org
read the install.txt file
Personally, I wouldn't use an autoscript to install any script for production. I only find them useful for testing of scripts.
Will do Thank you for your
