  When I try to use the customize option, the side bar on the right opens, but does not progress beyond the “Loading Design Tools…” phase. It was working just fine yesterday afternoon. I had my blog set up with a static page and I have since deleted that. But now my main page is coming up as “not found”. I am assuming it is because I never changed it back from the static option before I deleted the page. Is there a way to change that option in the dashboard?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  NOTE: When using the theme customizer please be sure you are using one of the browsers and versions found here http://browsehappy.com and also be sure you have enabled third party cookies. http://en.support.wordpress.com/third-party-cookies/

  NOTE: I do not use the theme customizer. All of the very same functions can be accessed from your dashboard.
  Appearance > Header
  Appearance > Background
  Appearance > Theme Options (applicable only to some themes)
  Settings > Reading (set a static front page)
  Site Title and Tagline > Settings > General

  This problem was happening because there must be content published an order for the Customize section to work. This help page explains it in a bit more detail:
