500 Internal error
-
Tried to get the header to be responsive ( the template is responsive and the site is working, only the header is not). After researching, I placed some code into the CSS to correct it. Once I realized that it did not work, I removed it. The 500 Internal Error displayed. All attempts at correcting it tell me to work from the dashboard, which I can not get into.

It sounds like you are using a self-hosted version of WordPress, instead of the free hosted version supported here. What is the URL of the site you are working with?
Read more about the differences between WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG:

- The most likely issue is a corrupted .htaccess file. Log in to your site root using FTP and rename your .htaccess file to .htaccess_old. Try loading your site to see if this has solved your problem. If it works, make sure to visit Settings > Permalinks and reset your permalinks. This will generate a new
.htaccessfile for you. - Try deactivating all of your Plugins to see if it is a Plugin issue. If you are unable to access your WordPress Administration Screens, deactivate your Plugins via FTP by following these instructions.
- Switch the Theme to a default theme, such as the WordPress Twenty Fifteen Theme to eliminate any Theme-related problems.
- Increase the PHP Memory limit
- Try re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a fresh install of WordPress.
If that doesn’t fix your issue, I would recommend asking on the WordPress.org Support Forums for help with this:
