Blank screen on system configuration in admin panel for Magento

configuration, magento

Solution

One issue sometimes forgotten is that after installation of a new module it may be necessary to recompile, that is, if you have enabled compilation in System/Tools/Compilation. Before recompilation, the entire configuration page may remain blank.

Problem

We have encountered a problem with our site. The system > configuration screen only displays the menu, side menu and footer. When we click on side menu option, the screen remains black and the relevant information does not appear. Please see this link. This is what appears. When we click on any side menu option, the screen is blank This is causing a major problem as we are unable to access the information for configuring the site. Kind regards Paul
