@Ryan I think that most of time problems occur because the theme used isn’t prepared for the WordPress update. Typically that’s not a problem, but when a major update rolls out it’s always best to make sure your theme is compatible. I’ve learned my lesson and now I test it in a separate environment first.

Thanks for this. It fixed the issue for me.

Any thoughts on what causes it? Most of what I’ve seen is from people upgrading, but I hadn’t upgraded this particular blog recently.

The article is good. Some new features may be included in the new version of word press. It might be better then the last one.

Hi,
Nice post! There must be something about the new WordPress, I had a very similar challenge. That’s why I didn’t upgrade to the latest version of WordPress,

That’s why I didn’t upgrade to the latest version of WordPress, which I think doesn’t bring much anyways. Well, I guess it depends what version you were on before. I have the latest WordPress on another blog and I find it very buggy and not compatible with many pluggins. Just my 2 Francs..

Otherwise, I really like the new template.

Try ‘Simple PHP Blog’. No MySQL needed. I get tired of upgrading WP all the time.

Here’s another tip:

Export your database in MySQL323 format to ensure backward compatibility with other webhosts.
