    I've installed 2.0.2 through my webhosts Cpanel. All I'm getting is plain text with no themes. (no graphics) Please help... I was running 1.5 before with out any problems. I've tried the built in Kubrick and Classic with no luck. I've tried a few 2.0 alternative compatible themes also with no luck.

    Heres the site.. http://www.my4x4tv.com/WordPress

    Ah, you have that strange domain name with 4x4 and WP transforms the letter X into a multiply sign.
    Search for 4x4 and you should find a fix.

    why 4x4 would be an error ? i mean it's not * it's just a character .

    it's just a known error, with a known way of fixing it.
    do the search, find the answer on how to fix it, and fix it.

    add_filter('bloginfo', 'wptexturize');

    in default-filters.php
    Now it works just fine
    That is a REALLY CRAZY BUG!

    THANK YOU!!!

    it's just that wordpress views "x" as "multiply" as opposed to "*"

    Actually * is not THE multiply sign. It is - &215;

    It's BS is what it is.. If it's in the domain it shouldn't mess with it.. 1.5 worked great for me.. well now it works but I lost my database messing around with the darn thing! So now I have to recreate all the posts!! :(

    Hey someone remember how to get wordpress on the main page instead of /wordpress??

    Actually it has been a problem in WP 1.5, too. That's why I remembered those old posts with the complain and the fix.

    Upload the files into the root folder, not in a directory. If you want to move it > Moving_WordPress.

    I went this route instead. moving a copy of index.php over to the root directory and adding this line. (line 4)

    <?php
    /* Short and sweet */
    define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
    require('./wordpress/wp-blog-header.php');
    ?>

    You guys ROCK!! thank you again.. what a nightmare!
