After upgrade: Dashboard shows empty dotted box

So there is some future intended use for that box? Weird.

I did not deactivate everything before upgrading. I actually never have and I’ve been using WP for some years. I take it I’m supposed to though, so I’ll try to remember that in the future.

I don’t know anything about the servers in particular. It’s a standard Dreamhost installation.

Thanks for the link, dragonsjaw. I do hope in the future I get the option to choose my number of columns again.

But as I said, I love the new look other than this.
