blog running diff version of WP than rest of site

Do you have the line below in your header.php file, or is it hard-coaded to say 3.0.4?

<meta name="generator" content="WordPress <?php bloginfo('version'); ?>" />

Thanks.

No it is hard coded in there as 3.04. Can I change it to your code & upload it? Will that fix it?

Wait — it is on the source page for the blog page. Which header file are you talking about? WP-blog-header.php? I can’t seem to find a *-header.php file that has that line.

header.php in your theme

Because I was having problems with the Mystique theme in the version of WP running on my blog page, I switched to the TwentyTen theme. In both themes, the version on the source code of the page is 3.0.4.

Which doesn’t directly answer your question, I know. I can’t find that code in the header.php file of the TwentyTen theme.

It’s not in TwentyTen (or TwentyEleven for that matter). Actually … wait a second. It’s NOT in those themes (I have Twenty Eleven on a site, and there’s no version in the themes).

Can you share your URL?

Well you are right, it”s not in the theme, but it is output in the head section

I just checked your site and mine. Mine shows 3.2.1, and yours does show 3.0.4

What does your admin dashboard say, bottom right corner, does that also show 3.0.4? or does it ask you to upgrade or something?

I wonder if it’s a plugin.

It shows 3.2.1 on the bottom of the dashboard — as does the source code for all of the pages except the blog page. When I check under Updates — I have the latest version. This morning I ran a re-install for 3.2.1 but I still have the problem.

How is it possible to have a different WP version on just the blog page?

When I had Mystique as a theme, I disabled each plugin one at a time & still had the same problem. I’ll try that again with TwentyTen this afternoon.

Your SUB pages are correct…

Uh … okay, that is WILD.

I was hoping that this wasn’t unique & that I could fix it & get my site back with the theme that I want.

I turned off all of the plugins — flushed the cache — and the blog page still shows a different version of WP. (I turned them back on though b/c I’m attached to my plugins.)

I have abso-freakin-lutely no idea what is going on there….

I would reinstall WP. Dno’t delete your data, just remove the wp-admin, wp-includes, and wp-content/twentyeleven folders (or terntyten) and re-upload them via FTP to your server

Will I lose everything but content? Including which plugins I have, what setups I have in plugins, my menus, settings, etc. What a nightmare.
