Answers.Text: If you track down the issues you're having, please consider filing an issue in the [CiviCRM bug tracker](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/issues/). I suspect there's a bug happening here which is affecting a number of sites, but has lacked anyone taking the time to track it down. If you engage a developer to  solve this problem, consider asking them to either ensure a workable bug report gets filed or to make sure their solution gets submitted to CiviCRM, so that other WordPress-using sites can benefit.

Your [first linked article](http://civicrm.stackexchange.com/questions/8475/the-contribution-payment-verification-page-has-lost-the-site-theme-styling) gave me an invaluable clue -- adding `&snippet=1` to the URL showed the form fields, so I knew it had something to do with the theme.

Answers.Body: <p>Turned out to be my own fault... After I did the upgrade I did a little housecleaning. This WP site is only used for CiviCRM, so I figured I could delete the "Hello World" post.

Body: <p>I've recently updated our CiviCRM install to v4.7.9 (was 4.7.6 IIRC). Now it seems our contribution pages aren't filling with anything -- the theme parts show, but the main part of the page is empty:
  <a href="https://i.sstatic.net/MZeuc.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/MZeuc.png" alt="empty contribution page"></a>
  I've looked at the page source, and can see that various CiviCRM script links are in there, but there's no sign of the contribution form fields. Is there something I need to reset to get the fields back, or have I got a bigger problem...?</p>
  
  <p>Versions: Wordpress 4.5.3, Twenty Fourteen theme, CiviCRM 4.7.9</p>
  
  <p><strong>Edit:</strong> Looks like profile pages are doing the same thing. It's all working in Test Drive/Preview, but not on "live" pages.</p>

  There have been a few questions on this site relating to:
  
  * CiviCRM not displaying pages under certain WordPress themes, or
  * CiviCRM showing only CiviCRM content - without the theme!
  
  In particular I'd recommend [checking out this question](https://civicrm.stackexchange.com/questions/8475/the-contribution-payment-verification-page-has-lost-the-site-theme-styling) which, while it describes different symptoms to what you're reporting, may help point you in the right direction.
  
  There is also a question on [which WordPress themes are thought to work well](https://civicrm.stackexchange.com/questions/11281/best-wordpress-theme-framework-for-correct-display-of-civicrm).
  
  My suggestion would be to try other "stock" WordPress themes first, and see if the page contents start appearing. If so, then you have a good reference point to analyse the problem. If not, then you might be looking at a CiviCRM bug.
  
  Twenty Fourteen theme is a "core" (if older?) Wordpress theme that CiviCRM is likely to have been tested with. Other WordPress plugins might be a factor still, so if you have the same issue with all themes then look into the possibility that a plugin is interfering.
