Hey Guys -- just wanted to jump in here ... I am the web designer here and actually, I was the one who screwed up Scott's backend not him. Nevertheless, I am trying to get him to jump in and learn how to design web sites with me ...

A message that says "check your error logs" is not all that helpful for a newbie. Granted, you'd like to think he'd do a search before posting ... but newbies sometimes don't know how to search for what will come up and frankly, my experience has been that searching in forums can be like looking for a needle in a haystack sometimes.

Since I've only given him access to the Admin feature of CMSMS, I'd like to think he can restore / get it fixed without resorting to logging into the cPanel or going way over his head.

If if is not possible to provide an easy answer (of course, as we are just learning CMSMS and are evaluating the platform as well as how helpful and useful the forums are) ... maybe suggesting a new install or not replying at all would be the best way to really help a newbie.

Thanks for letting me share my thoughts and hope someone here can come up with a fix that will work for us.

ps Sagre just confirmed to me that "he didn't know what to ask" ... enuf said

Hello Sagre,

But replying is better than not replying at all. And you had a reply :
Check your httpd error log
Please tell us the exact error logged in the log and we will be able to tell more.
Meanwhile you an search by yourself about : admin panel, no style, no stylesheet...
