Yeah.. me again.

Now the themes in my wp-content/themes folder aren’t showing up. They’re there in FTP and the files show in the editor when clicked but the theme isn’t displaying on the blog itself. Any ideas?

Speaking from experience, your older version was likely compromised. I only noticed it today, but I had several files in my plugins and themes folders with the extensions .jpgg and .giff. There were also some files in some of my hostees root directory with the same names as the register.php file, only it was marked “old” or “new”.

Some posted this link in my thread, maybe it will do you some good!

I’m just now, over 8 hours later, getting my problems sorted out. It took creating a new database for WordPress and importing my sql backup into the new database before things got situated. It looks like we’re not alone in this though. Several of my friends, online and offline, have been victims of this.

OK, I found a strange file called: mtw-wordcount.php.jpgg. I’m not sure what that is and it’s never been there until about a minute ago.

I checked the other thread and I’m not sure how to check phpmyadmin for that, exactly where do I find what I’m supposed to search for – for those “phantom” plugins?

BTW, thanks for the help.

I’m sorry to keep replying but I’m still having issues. I wiped out my database, as I mentioned above.. deleted WordPress entirely and reinstalled. In still shows WP 2.5 with a new install, which is strange. I think this is a bug with the download file at this point.. though I could be wrong.

My new issue is that the page templates aren’t working. I have created a separate template for my “about me” page, but it’s no longer functioning. Any ideas about what that may be?

Now when I try to import the sql file, I get this;

Premature end of script headers: php: Please check /usr/local/cpanel/logs/error_log for the exact error.

I’ve never had this kind of trouble upgrading.. I don’t know what the dern deal is.

I’ve done this 7 times, actually. Each time I get the same result. I’ve cleared the cache. Deleted everything and repeated it. Still, I get the same thing every time.

I’ve just wiped out the database (after backing it up of course) and have reinstalled 2.5.1. I’m in the process of importing the old files, so I guess I’ll see how that goes. :/
