  • The most surefire way is to export all posts, reinstall WordPress 2.7.1 and then import them again.

    But why do you want to downgrade? What’s wrong with WP 2.8?

    I want to downgrade because I can’t get the media buttons to work. They’re there, but you can’t click on them. Have even reinstalled WP to no avail. Have also troubleshooted my installed plugins…

    i tried downgrading back to 2.7 but I couldn’t. I kept getting an “upgrade to wordpress 2.8” all huge in my screen. :/

    2.8 is difficult. i haven’t found any good magazine style themes that are compatible with it. & my website is down because the one I use to have didn’t work anymore when I upgraded in the first place. ??

    Yeah I use the arthemia template and my site is down because I upgraded to 2.8 and now I can’t view any categories and all of my tags have been removed this is not good for my magazine at all.
