I installed BL2. I kept the data and custom files. yet, the masthead image no longer appears and the format of the albums on the homepage is not the same. i haven't changed any of the settings or files.
was there something else i need to change after upgrading?

Hi John, this is related to the .htaccess problem. I suggest re-uploading the file from backlight/.htaccess in the installer zip to backlight/ on your server. If that doesn't help, then please provide with with FTP access via email so that I can look into this.

OK. I found out two things"
1. there must be .htaccess at the top level for the website
2. there must be a second .htaccess in the backlight directory
3. i just add the following at the beginning of the file for it to get the correct version of PHP:
# Use PHP56CGI as default
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php56 .php
thanks!

Hi John, that sounds right. I think the complication is that Bluehost sometimes needs the AddHandler line in order to give you something above 5.2, but uploading the files from the installer zip clobbers that setting. In my case (as a a Bluehost customer), I didn't need to do anything beyond set the PHP version to 5.6 in the Control Panel. The uploaded .htaccess files worked as-is.
