when it was from 1.5 to 2.0 i did something wrong and im afraid to upgrade files from 2.0 to 2.0.1
i can not do it again … is there any simples ways again?

I’d say the link I gave above will work ok for you.. =) Did you try clicking on it…? It’s for this: Detailed Upgrade Instructions for 1.5.x to 2.0.1 and 2.0 to 2.0.1 Probably can’t get any simpler really…

Trust me i tried it before and i lost all my data/posts/comment .. etc

im afraid to do that again im not good with these steps ;/

Alright, maybe the best bet is to wait on a moderator to come by in here then or something, that way to be on the “safe side” of things, they could maybe give you better, “simpler” instructions or something.. =)

Anyone including me could just post a simple quick way of doing it, yet it still wouldn’t possibly workout for you, and we’ll feel guilty and have that on our shoulders lol.

Like I said, best bet is to wait for a moderator then I guess. :/ Also, have you checked out Podz site on this kinda stuff to? https://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/index.html

DO NOT delete: wp-config.php or the wp-includes/languages folder (if used) or the /wp-content folder but you MUST delete the /wp-content/cache folder. It could cause problems if the cache is not deleted.

— Then —>>

Delete /wp-admin, /wp-includes, /wp-content/cache and all the wp-* files at root
Rename your .htaccess file to htaccess.txt (just to be sure of keeping it)
Upload the new files.
Upload the new plugins in wp-content/plugins
Run /wp-admin/upgrade.php

!! what can i do ! delete or not to delete ! hehe

?? please help me

i’ve lost every thing :((((((((

i just uploaded everything but i recieve this

There doesn’t seem to be a wp-config.php file. Double check that you updated wp-config-sample.php with the proper database connection information and renamed it to wp-config.php.

now i have this :

There doesn’t seem to be a wp-config.php file. I need this before we can get started. Need more help? We got it. You can create a wp-config.php file through a web interface, but this doesn’t work for all server setups. The safest way is to manually create the file.
