  • Well, my hack, it appears, is not the complete wonder solution I thought it was. While it does fix the issues of formatting the admin screens, there are several panels/functions in the screens that do not appear to work (i.e. adding new categories and tags to posts).

    I am not sure if these were pre-existing problems (although, I tend to think so as all I adjusted was the way the styles were accessed), but they are there now. I am starting to wonder if there is some type of incompatibility between the latest version of WordPress and the PHP version that is running on my hosts server.

    I will be upgrading to 2.8.4 on another site I have that lives on a different hosting service to see if the problems continue on that installation.

    Okay, so I think I fixed the problem. Here is my fix:

    1. Go to the wp-Admin folder and open up admin-header.php.

    2. Look for the following tags:

    <head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php echo get_option('blog_charset'); ?>" />

    3. Directly after the close of the meta tag place the following:

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/dashboard.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/global.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/farbtastic.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/media.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/theme-editor.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/widgets.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/plugin-install.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/theme-editor.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/theme-install.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="wp-admin.css" />

    All this is doing is circumventing the code that’s supposed to be pulling in and placing the css links automatically.

    Please note: THIS IS A HACK, but it seems to work. Please feel free to add on to this or make adjustments as needed.

    Hopefully this will be properly fixed at some point soon, but in the meantime…

    I even went back to Firefox 3.0 and it is still messed up. It must be an actual WordPress error.

    I am having the same problem in both Firefox and Safari. Any one come up with a solution yet? I’ve re-installed three times (full and just the wp-admin folder), but it has made no difference.

    Has anyone found a solution to this problem? My admin screens are borked up since I upgraded to 2.8.4, and I cannot seem to find a solution.
