At wits end - what should I do? (3 posts)

    OK guys, this thing has really been bugging me for about 2 days now, and I have tried nearly everything.

    2 days ago I tried to use the instant upgrade plugin. After upgrading succesffully from 2.5.1 to 2.6, I stupidly wanted to downgrade to 2.5.1 again. So I made a backup of my database according to the wordpress codex. I also kept a "current" folder with the the most current wordpress files on my website (except the .htaccess). So I deleted my whole site without deactivating my plugins...then I reuploaded my files and deleted the old tables and inserted my new ones.

    After that whenever I try to access the login page...I get redirected with a URL like http://drett.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=%2Farchives%2Fwp-admin%2F.....which eventually gives me an error of never-ending redirects.

    I really tried everything I could. I even tried to strip my database of the tables that were'nt core wordpress tables but I still got the same error. I could excess the site alrgith..but I could not acccess the admin page.

    Crap. I told myself maybe I should upload the 2.6 and then update my database. So I did just that. But now I can access the admin page...but not the site itself. No error or anything. Just a blank page.

    Guys please help me. I'm really panicing here. I've put so much time and effort into the site. What should I do now? I dont mind about losing my themes and pictures or anything, I just want to have my posts and comments back into the site....I can always use another theme or something.

    Thank you!!!

    hey davkoh,

    I've been looking at it trying to see what I can and I can't pull up any URLs on your site and I'm not seeing the redirect. Maybe you've made changes since posting?

    I'd be happy to try to help you, but we may need to speak directly.

    Feel free to contact me through my site and I'll respond back ASAP. I'll be in and out a bit today, but would be happy to try to help.
