restoring a backup will just restore the database (which everything runs on), it won't revert you to a previous version. To do that, navigate to the root of your Concrete install (I'm guessing this may be the "ConnectTwo" folder), go into the config folder, and edit the site.php file. Delete the bit that says and you should be right to go again.

I'm also presuming that the backup you restored was one that you ran just prior to upgrading to 5.5.1?

Can't say for sure why your site was empty, but perhaps once you're back up and running that's something to look at then.

Thanks will try it now

Ok I went back to the site and it has sorted itself - files just appeared, some out of place - no big deal.

However when I go through admin log in to sign in there is no dashboard or way to edit the site.

Can you help me a little further please

sounds like it could be the footer issue

in your theme's footer.php, make sure this line is there just before the </body> tag

I am really new to sorting this out. how would I get to the footer.php?

When i go through my file manager there doesn't seem to be a theme file...hmmmm?

Ok, do you know what theme your site is using?

Hi sorry for the delay - I am not sure what theme it is using - I think it may be the default theme.

However I am now get an error message when I click admin log in - I have attached a pic - there is a lot of writing on the screen so maybe it will provide you or someone else with the inforamtion that I dont know hehe

getting a bit beyond me now - something's not being found though. You could maybe try doing a manual upgrade to 5.5.1 though and see if that works
