To upgrade automatically to a new wordpress version you simply have to go into your WP-settings.php file, and on line 13, change

define (‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘8M’) to define (‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’), or to some even greater number.

You will have to do this each time you upgrade, as the new WP-settings.php file is always at 8M

In your wp-settings.php file on line 13 change WP_MEMORY_LIMIT from 32M to 64M. I think even bigger might work, but 64M has worked for me.

This is very strange, because for me it works in IE7, and Firefox on my PC. It does not work with Firefox on my Mac. It does work with Flock (which is based on Firefox, so I’m even more confused), and Safari.

It seems to work with every browser except for Firefox on my Mac. The two things I prefer over everything else.

Any suggestions

Just eliminate the index.php attribute from you custom permalinks structure, and everything will work fine. Even linking from search engines.

Ok, DCThree, what do you mean reset my permalinks. I have reset them, at least I have set to the default, saved it, and then used the same permalink structure, index.php/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/, as before.

But it still won’t link to those posts, nor will it link to the comments either. I get an ‘error 404’ message in both cases.

So can you please elaborate more clearly what you mean by resetting the permalinks?

Well I don’t know how to fix it. I checked my permalinks and they are set to exactly the way it appears in the post.

How do I fix?

Just be sure to deactivate all your plugins, and delete all the old files from the previous version of WordPress that you are using, with the exception of your wp-contents folder and your wp-config.php file.

I’m sure the reason it didn’t work the first time for me, was I must not have deleted something that should have been deleted

Well I tried deleting everything again, and reinstalling v2.1 and everything is working fine.

Obviously I did something wrong the first time. Just don’t know what it was.

Ok, I understand the part about changing the password in MySQL, that was easy, but… and I hate sounding stupid, how did you reinstall your phpMyAdmin?

I don’t understand what you did. You reinstalled your PhpAdmin?

Then you updated your MySQL user name and password. Do you mean you changed your user name and password? or just reinstalled your phpConfig file?

Hopefully you’re still there, or someone else can explain what GlobalGame did.

I just contacted my webhoster, and they tell me my php memory was set at 32M.

Any other suggestions?

I downloaded v2.3.1, but am stuck at the ‘Chmod 666 yousite.com/maillist/wpemn_config.php.

I have absolutely how to accomplish that task. Can someoe please help

Thanks! That work. Now on to the next problem. ??

Almost! Got the font color and size to what they should be, but still can’t get the text to align in the center of the header. I’m using text-align: center; Is that correct? or have I missed something else?

Nevermind. How lame of me.

Thanks again – Marc
