    You should install a fresh copy of WordPress on your server. Doing so with Filezilla or another FTP client would be the best. It sounds like something went wrong with your file structure.
    The only question I have is did you install any plugins as well, those can cause issue. Make sure you delete any plugins from your plugin folder before the re-install, just start fresh.

    If you need, I have years of experience with WordPress, I'd be ale to fix, manage, host, and design your site for an affordable price. Let me know if your interested, and let us know if a re-install worked or not.

    Interesting, i have come across this with one of my sites, the problem was 2 different plugins, that were not meant to be together on the same wordpress site, so it was delete them one at a time to work out which one was the problem.
    I dont use free themes, they are a bit lame, the themes i use, and great for startup seo.
    thanks

    I think its a Theme issue.

      I believe if you ftp to your site and delete the current theme that Wordpress will revert to the default theme that it started with when you installed. If you already deleted the default theme then you'll need a different approach.

        Haven't had much trouble with themes but here's what I would try...

        first put your Theme's function.php as a URL
        eg. http://mysite.com/wp-content/theme/mytheme/functions.php
        and see if you get an error message... problem could be there.

        if that doesn't help, reset your theme to a default you still have installed using phpMyAdmin:

        if that doesn't help it is probably a plugin after all...
        rename /wp-content/plugins/ to /wp-content/plugins-off/
        and re-access your site and admin area... this will turn all
        your plugins of as Wordpress can't find the files.

        then you can rename /plugins-off/ back to /plugins/
        and go back to your /wp-admin/plugins.php
        and start turning them back on again... if any of
        them are the culprit it will tell you what failed.

    As said here it's very simple remove those element you newly installed by entering from your ftp account into.
    For plugins go to: wordpress\wp-content\plugins
    For themes: wordpress\wp-content\themes
    by removing or renaming the folder name wordpress will stop loading the plugin or the new theme you used.
