Removed Slate Theme by Accident
Permalink Browser Info Environment
I accidentally 'removed' Slate from my website when I intended to modify it. Now I cannot access the site at all, even after restore from backup. I see just a white page. I can access the Dashboard though, by manually entering the addr. I have only purchased one license for Slate, wondering if that is at all related to my problem.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I can modify my site using another theme but cannot reconnect Slate to that site, even though it appears to be available in my Projects info. Cannot access the files to reinstall, maybe I need to purchase the package again?
Finally found the (simple) answer from Vidall replied on Nov 4, 2013:
To get your theme back from an accidental hit of the "Remove" button, follow these steps:
1/ Log into your site and go to "dashboard > extend concrete5"
2/ find your theme, and click the "Edit" button next to it
3/ click the option to uninstall
4/ DO NOT check the box to send the theme to your servers trash bin
5/ once uninstalled, click "install"
6/ return to "Pages and themes > themes" your theme should be listed again, click activate next to it, your content should re-appear also, its probably just disappeared because when you removed the theme, the default theme that appeared instead probably had differently named areas, your content shouldn't be lost.
