   Hi,

   After upgrading to 2.0.4, I can no longer use the image-upload facility (in 'Write') to upload images. As soon as I click Upload, I get the message:
   "Fatal error: Call to undefined function: wp_check_filetype() in /homepages/10/d145033315/htdocs/ksb/wp/wp-admin/admin-functions.php on line 1705"

   The previous version I was on was 2.0.3, which was fine in this respect.

   Any ideas?
   Thanks,
   nij

   I'd actually re-upload all the files under wp-admin and see if that fixes it.

   I can upload images, but I can't "send to editor" in IE or Firefox - it just calls a void() Javascript and does nothing.

   Thanks HandySolo,
   I have tried that, with no effect. I even re-downloaded the 2.0.4 zip and extracted it... again with no effect.

   To further comment, I have found that there is a wp_check_filetype function in wp-includes/functions-post.php ~ it has a very similar structure to the original file.

   *** I have now managed to fix the problem ***

   First, I deleted functions-post.php on the remote server. Refreshing the Admin/Write page gave an error (could not find file) which was a 'good sign' inasmuch at leats it proved to me that the page was being imported.

   I then uploaded the file to the server again, and this time refreshing the Write page worked (good, it now had the new file). And hey presto - file uploads now work without the error message.

   This suggests that my internet host does some very odd caching in their PHP implementation. In fact, thinking about it, I think that I have had similar issues with caching before, not necesarily with PHP but other things. How this change managed not to be propagated for weeks is beyond me though,
