Even the header and background are not loading. Not a single image in the media gallery is visible. The images which are not hosted on wordpress but are embedded into my blog show up just fine. Also I tried loding my blog on several devices, so its not a problem with my local machine.

Please help.

Not sure what's going on here, we'll look into it. If you go to your blog's Admin -> Appearance -> Widgets and scroll down to the bottom of the page, you should be able to find your missing widgets. Drag them back up to the sidebar.

About missing widgets, check at the bottom area where all widgets in your dashboard are. They usually drop down to there when anything weird happens.

When I checked that line of code it was for verification of the user.php file. I then checked the user.php file and found this:
