Is not perfect but at least I am able to log back in and export my WordPress site so that I can re-start from scratch.</p> <p>Here is the fix!!<br /> Is not perfect, but I will allow you to get into your admin. PS this is my 1st post --- I am by no mean an expert</p> <p>[huge chunk of code moderated - please use a pastebin] </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/247496#post-998536 Thu, 26 Feb 2009 03:43:41 +0000 pkids 998536@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I did use the search here, but I hadn't tried removing the problematic code. I did that and the blog displayed correctly, and I was able to get to the admin panel.</p> <p>I'm curious as to why it says i have 8 plugins that need updating, since I had deleted everything in the blog directory before uploading again. On the left side, I can click on "Widgets" and that works, but if I click on "Plugins" on the left side, I get a fatal error. I can click on "editor" under "Plugins" and that works OK, and I see just the 2 plugins that are in the wordpress directory, but there's still an "8" next to "Plugins", which is how many plugins I had that needed updating before I started the upgrade process. So somehow it's still picking up that number from somewhere. </p> <p>So my situation is improved -- thank you! -- but I'm not sure how to finish fixing the problem. Any suggestions? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/247496#post-998191 Wed, 25 Feb 2009 20:57:57 +0000 whooami 998191@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>you googled, did you use the search here?</p> <p><a href="http://wordpress.org/support/topic/172272" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/support/topic/172272</a> </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/247496#post-998188 Wed, 25 Feb 2009 20:51:32 +0000 pkids 998188@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>ok, this is making me batty! &lt;pulling hair out&gt;</p> <p>I uploaded everything again, and still get the same error message. At least I'm not getting the other ones. I don't understand what it's looking for. When i Google the above error message, I get a lot of foreign language stuff. I was using a translator widget, but those files are GONE -- I deleted *everything* before uploading freshly.</p> <p>Here's the plugin: <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/global-translator/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/global-translator/</a> -- it says it does not alter the database.</p> <p>I'm at a loss. Any more help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/247496#post-998132 Wed, 25 Feb 2009 20:13:44 +0000 pkids 998132@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Thanks for replying. :)</p> <p>I looked at that for several minutes trying to see any way it might be related, but I can't. We definitely have tons of tags in use. </p> <p>I got to looking at the code on that line 1045, which I know nearly nothing about, and messed with it a little, then tried to change it back, and now am getting new error messages. </p> <p>I suppose I should just download the entire package again, fresh, and delete everything, and start over, like it's a new install, and edit my config file w/ my current database info. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/247496#post-998091 Wed, 25 Feb 2009 19:40:26 +0000 mrmist 998091@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Does it relate to this ?</p> <p><a href="http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/9214" rel="nofollow">http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/9214</a></p> <p>If so you could potentially get around it by applying the patch to your installation. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/247496#post-998078 Wed, 25 Feb 2009 19:28:14 +0000 pkids 998078@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I followed all the instructions to upgrade and received this error when I tried to view my blog following the upgrade:</p> <blockquote><p>Warning: array_keys() [function.array-keys]: The first argument should be an array in /home/pkids/public_html/pkidsblog/wp-includes/widgets.php on line 1045</p></blockquote> <p>I then tried:</p> <p>* using the new wp-config.php file, putting in my DB info<br /> * commenting out/changing the character set from utf8 to something else<br /> * deleting all plugins from my server and uploading the ones in the 2.7.1 package<br /> * deleting all themes and uploading the themes file included with 2.7.1<br /> * manually setting the theme to "default" in phpmyadmin</p> <p>I can't even get to the admin panel. As I mentioned, I followed all instructions, including disabling plugins and backing up files prior to backing up.</p> <p>I've been searching the web and these forums for help and can't figure it out. Any help will be appreciated. </p>
