Many thanks for your reply Tara!
I followed your advice and updated by the list but nothing’s changed. I still get the same error message as above.
I’m not even interested in updating any more and just want to revert back to the version where the blog was working.
I’ve also tried to increase the memory limit:
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '96M');
If I delete everything from my FTP and do a full clean install without any themes, plugins etc. will I be able to connect to the database again without losing posts? I will of course back up the wp-content/uploads folder and manually add plugins with settings.
The error message states that it cannot find load.php but it’s there. I don’t know what else I can do just to restore it as I’m giving up!
Thanks again for your time.
