In reply to: Upgrading issueIt seems like a theme issue. Is that a custom theme?
Try switching to another theme and see if your posts re-appear.
If they do, something about your theme is incompatible with the newest version of WordPress.

In reply to: upgrade 2.7 to 2.8.4 fatal errorRodger that.
I didn’t read any of his other posts. Something screwed up his database then. Sounds like an evil plugin.
Thanks.

In reply to: upgrade 2.7 to 2.8.4 fatal errorI seriously doubt that your blog is unrecoverable. WordPress uses a SQL database to store allof your pages, posts, and other information. You will be able to get your site back up and running if you can access your wp-config.php (located in the root folder of your site) and copy it along with any theme files you want (located in the wp-content/themes folder).
Once you have these things copied, you can wipe out all the WordPress files for your site and then reinstall the most recent version in it’s place.
A new site will not be connected to your old database -so your site will look empty -so replace the new site’s wp-config.php with the old one.
This will connect your new site to your old database. Then go to “https://yoursite.com/wp-admin/upgrade.php”
This will upgrade your SQL database if necessary.

In reply to: stuck at install.phpI use BlueHost.
For new installations there is a great service called SimpleScripts in the control panel which will automatically install WordPress in about 60 seconds.
Not sure if this is available in the godaddy hosting control panel or not.
If it is, use it.
If not, SimpleScripts may still be able to perform an auto-install of the latest version on your domain.
Go to SimpleScripts, sign-up for a free account, and let me know how it goes.
Been meaning to test the service externally from my host -but maybe you can test it for me and get your installation done.
BlueHost reccomends it as a service. You can perform multiple installs of WordPress, BBpress and several other CMSs.

In reply to: how do you Add another Sidebar to my website?Ok. If you really want to learn this, you can find the documentation here.
I recommend reading the whole document but the part you are looking for is halfway down the page called The New Way of Adding a Sidebar.

Has nothing to do with WordPress installation -or even WordPress “which is working perfectly.”

In reply to: Header already sent huge bugDreamweaver? Never heard of a dreamworks editor.
Yeah. Like whooami said. Use a text editor.
Dreamweaver is ok for making a website or authoring something from scratch -if you like using it.
Placing foreign code into it will often ALTER the code per Dreamweaver’s automatic code “correcting” standards. In effect, it will often break whatever foreign code you place in it and even add lines of code.

In reply to: Install : HTTP Error 404.0 – Not Found404 indicates that the file you are trying to look at isn’t there.
You say “install a 2nd wordpress blog on my website”.
Did you install it in a subfolder off of the root? Which folder?
In anycase, you won’t find anything at /wp-content/install.php.
Try going to /wp-admin/install.php. like mentioned in the detailed installation docs:Step 5: Run the Install Script
Point your favorite web browser to start the installation script.If you placed the WordPress files in the root directory, you should visit: https://example.com/wp-admin/install.php
If you placed the WordPress files in a subdirectory called blog, for example, you should visit: https://example.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php
