Answers.Text: That is a standard error message - it will display if cron jobs haven't been set up, if the default configuration hasn't been updated, etc.

Body: <p>I successfully installed CiviCRM to my wordpress site at josephcommunitycenter.org. When I click on CiviCRM on the left side of the WP Admin panel, it takes a while for the page to load and then I see the following:
  <a href="https://i.sstatic.net/nwAGR.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/nwAGR.png" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>
  
  <p>When I click on Configure Your Dashboard, it goes nowhere. I also don't see the Administer Dashboard for CiviCRM. What is causing this problem? I'm running on php version 5.6 and have the latest version of wordpress and CiviCRM. I can also tell there are some images missing from the CiviCRM Home screen. </p>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>

Comments.Text: I'd guess that you are experiencing a javascript conflict. Some Wordpress themes and plugins don't play nicely with CiviCRM. Some known culprits are mentioned on this page, but it is by no means comprehensive. Try changing your site to use a different theme - opt for one of the basic default ones, and see if the problem persists. If you can see the CiviCRM menu and your dashboard button works, you know where the problem lies. If not the theme, try to disable plugins one by one and see if that changes things. Probably done best on a copy of the site.

ThreadText: # Blank Screen When Clicking on CiviCRM in Wordpress - No Administer Panel
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2016-10-13)
  
  I successfully installed CiviCRM to my wordpress site at josephcommunitycenter.org. When I click on CiviCRM on the left side of the WP Admin panel, it takes a while for the page to load and then I see the following:
  [![enter image description here](https://i.sstatic.net/nwAGR.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/nwAGR.png)
  
  When I click on Configure Your Dashboard, it goes nowhere. I also don't see the Administer Dashboard for CiviCRM. What is causing this problem? I'm running on php version 5.6 and have the latest version of wordpress and CiviCRM. I can also tell there are some images missing from the CiviCRM Home screen.
  
  Thank you.
