    ok I tried to upload a new version of wordpress and got it all wrong. Almost lost everything... I have finally reverted back to an older version and it is mostly working other than I am locked out of my admin. this is the error message I have been getting.

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: is_multisite() in /homepages/14/d271388824/htdocs/webportfolio/blog/wp-admin/admin.php on line 43

    what do I need to do?

    here is my site if it helps... http://www.glazefolio.com/blog

    tried to re upload my admin.php and this is what I get now...

    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare tinymce_include() (previously declared in /homepages/14/d271388824/htdocs/webportfolio/blog/wp-includes/deprecated.php:756) in /homepages/14/d271388824/htdocs/webportfolio/blog/wp-admin/includes/deprecated.php on line 21

    You have lots of errors (here). Having this many errors makes it hard to trouble shoot site problems.

    Error messages on the 404 page from glazefolio.com/blog/wp-admin indicate you are missing files from your wp-content/theme folder. Did you mess with any of your theme files?

    For an install gone bad (but the site seems to be working) delete the wp-admin and wp-includes folder from the server and ftp new, unzipped files to replace them. DO NOT delete your wp-content folder, your config.php file or your .htaccess if you have one.

    I may have messed with a lot of my files... I backed up my files before I tried to do the upgrade and in the process of trying to revert back I think I saved over some of the files (rookie mistake)... I do have some considerably older back ups... would you recommend that I re upload some of my much older folders? which ones and will I lose my content? Thanks for your help!

    As long as you do not delete wp-content which has plugins, theme folders you shouldn't loose anything. All your posts and data is in the data base.

    If you are storing images or other content in wp-admin, wp-includes you should probably start keeping it within the themes folder.

    I will try the wp-include and wp-admin and go from there... I will let you know what happens... It may be a good opportunity to start over... I just hate to lose all my content and the few followers that I have managed to gain. Thanks so much!

    ok I am back in... Thanks soo much! Now that I am in I can work on all the other problems it has... It may still be a good time to think about a new one, but thanks anyway... I have put a lot of time into this one and I am glad that I still have it now... :-)
