In reply to: Upgrading I left plug-ins enabled by accident. Fatal error call?Ah… Decided against renaming the functions.
Opted instead to delete the entire wp-includes folder.
Then uploaded again the NEW files.
Tried wp-admin/upgrade.php SUCCESS
Restored the plugins folder.
Tried wp-admin/upgrade.php again SUCCESS
Just completed upgrade progress.
After a very long pause…
SUCCESS
All seems to be fine.
??
I noticed that in the wp-includes/ folder there is a “cache” file.
Could it be that the ‘new’ WordPress gets confused by the ‘old’ cache file?
Hmmm…
Anyway. All fixed… I hope.

In reply to: Upgrading I left plug-ins enabled by accident. Fatal error call?No luck moving the plugins.
Though I’ve taken a look in the pluggable-functions.php file to try and find the function:
wp_get_current_user()
but the only function resembling it seems to be:
get_current_user()
Might try renaming the function… Fingers crossed.

In reply to: Upgrading I left plug-ins enabled by accident. Fatal error call?2.0.1 -> 2.0.5
Have tried reuploading the files. No joy.
Tried running upgrade.php but got the same error message.
Will now try moving the plugin files…
Fingers crossed.
Thanks for your help guys.

In reply to: Trackback to my WP2.0 doesn’t workSadly the paulooi.com fix doesn’t seem to do much for me… I suspect either this fixes a different problem with trackbacks – or else the other fixes i’ve made to the blog are preventing this new fix from working properly. I guess I’ll just wait until something definitive, yeah right ;-), comes out.

In reply to: Trackbacks and WordPress 2 (incoming and outgoing)Sure, it’s *very* good for the most part; I’m just disappointed that the upgrade process had informed me of the problem with Trackbacks under PHP as CGI.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Trackback to my WP2.0 doesn’t workAh – yes, am running PHP as CGI – for security reasons apparently. Any ETA on the fix?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Trackback to my WP2.0 doesn’t workAh…. I see. How do I test whether my server runs PHP as CGI?

In reply to: Trackback to my WP2.0 doesn’t workAhhh… Well, if the WordPress site had made it clear it was still very much in Beta then I wouldn’t have upgraded. As it is, the download page for WordPress suggests the product is “stable” and, by implication out of beta?

Perhaps they ought to make it clear that WP2 is in certain respects broken… namely the whole trackback thing.

In reply to: trackback URL’s are broke after upgrade to 2.0My .htaccess looks like this:
Could I ask what your .htaccess file looks like for wordpress?
Mine looks like this:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php
</IfModule># END WordPress
Are we missing someting to do with trackbacks???

In reply to: trackback URL’s are broke after upgrade to 2.0I just tried the three fixes listed, but I’m just where I was before. Seems to have changed nothing for me.
Can I just check: when I go to my /trackback/ url in a web browser should I be presented with a “200 OK – The document has moved here.” page?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: fail to send/receive trackback in wp2.0I don’t think it’s solved… or at least I’m still suffering with it…
Hey, I’m a relative newbie… but you could perhaps set a variable equal to “Jim and Dave” (rather than Jim&Dave) – and then call that variable for posting the trackbacks… If you see what I mean?
i.e. $wordpressfriendlytitle = ‘Jim and Dave’
and then call it in the bit of your blog that posts the trackback…
Hope that helps. I’m having a miserable time getting my wordpress blog to do any sort of trackbacking; and I (like you) am a little disappointed at the help available to the wordpress community ??
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Trackback to my WP2.0 doesn’t workUsing the TestTrack on Tamba2, I find that the trackbacks/pingbacks get through to my blog and are registered in the “comment_count” field – but there is no record kept of the trackback in the “wp_comments” table… This is really starting to annoy me…
For example, one post I have now says:
“Comments (3) Trackbacks (0)”
And then on the permalink page it says:
“There have been 5 responses” and then lists only the three comments.
Grrr… WordPress 2 is really something of a pain. Any ideas from anyone?
