    hi - i dont know what i am doing wrong and maybe somebody could help - i am moving a working wordpress site to a live site and i am getting this error

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp() in /var/www/vhosts/blissbeauty.ie/httpdocs/wp-load.php on line 17

    any ideas- i simply copied the site from my local folder up to the public html folder on the server and created a database ( same details as local db) - i also adjusted "siteurl" and "home" in the options table via phpmyadmin to the new url

    believe it or not i have successfully done this at least 4 times already this year so i dont know what im missing but if anyone has any ideas i'd be gratfull - have been looking at it for 2 hours already

    For consistent results, follow all the steps on this page

    You can at times get away with skipping some but its not a good idea

    Hi

    double check that all the WP 2.7.1 files got uploaded, and that they are in the correct folders. Sounds like it may not be finding one of the files

    wp() is defined in /wp-includes/classes.php
