I just wanted to report that after doing a database and file back up, I upgraded the damaged blog’s wp version, and that seems to have fixed the issue. Thank’s for the tip HandySolo ??

I’ve uploaded the the wp-includes folder, and still nothing. I’m afraid I may have to re-start the blog, and then import archived posts, but I’m not sure how to do that.

I didn’t reload the whole wp-includes folder from back-up. Just the 3 missing php files.

Does anybody understand what the above message means?

Well, I’m still getting this message:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare check_admin_referer() (previously declared in /home/shop/public_html/########/wp-includes/pluggable-functions.php:228) in /home/shop/public_html/#########/wp-admin/admin-functions.php on line 474
even after adding those 3 missing files.

Anybody have any idea how I can get back into my dashboard?

There are 3 files in the back-up of the wp-includes folder that do not exist in the wp-includes folder showing on the site. They are:
class-IXR.php
class-pop3.php
class-snoopy.php

These exist inside the site wp-includes folder, but not in the back-up folder:
registration-functions.php
template-loader.php
images folder
JS folder

Should I put those 3 class files in?

I’ll get on that after dinner

Arrrggggg…..
Here’s what I’m getting:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare check_admin_referer() (previously declared in /home/shop/public_html/#######/wp-includes/pluggable-functions.php:228) in /home/shop/public_html/#####/wp-admin/admin-functions.php on line 474

Okay….(hands trembling with fear) I’ll give it a go.

I backed up on August 17, are you suggesting I should FTP ALL of the files from the wp-admin folder?

now I’m getting this:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare check_admin_referer() (previously declared in /home/shop/public_html/########/wp-includes/pluggable-functions.php:228) in /home/shop/public_html/######/wp-admin/admin-functions.php on line 474

WTF?

Could I just pull it out of my last back up and drop it in?

There is no admin.php file inside the wp-admin folder

There is a wp-admin folder there, yes

That’s exactly what they just said to me in their e-mail. They are scratching their heads a bit right now as well.
