It’s been a while since I’ve been here. I was notified about security updates and a quick WordPress update caused the blog to load with the white screen of the ghost 🙂 All that was displayed was “Empty template: Index”

It seems there are some changes in the way WordPress handles certain things. This has a custom-built theme. In order to fix this, follow these steps:

• open up the ‘index.php’ file from the parent theme and copy its contents;
• create a file named ‘home.php’ in the parent theme folder (the-core-parent);
• paste the content in the ‘home.php’ file and save it.

It should now work. 🙂
