I have a couple of problems in the admin.
-The footer is in the middle of the page rather than where it should be at the bottom. This interferes with editing and is just kinda annoying!
-I am unable to update password for a user. Get this message: Catchable fatal error: Object of class __PHP_Incomplete_Class could not be converted to string in /home/me/public_html/testing/wp-includes/functions.php on line 1526
I reinstalled WordPress but still having these two lingering issues. SOS and thanks!
Try re-uploading all files & folders - except the wp-content folder - from a fresh download of WordPress.

Thanks esmi, would this be different from reinstalling the whole thing? Just want to understand before I do this since it seems the same.
Yes - it's not the same as installing WordPress. You are simply replacing files in case of corruption issues.

One thing about doing this is that the file called out in the error message doesn't actually exist.

okay, just did the manual overwrite on all but wp-content but no change - still see the footer in the middle of posts admin - basically sits right in the middle of the editor and still can't give a user a new password. Same error: Catchable fatal error: Object of class __PHP_Incomplete_Class could not be converted to string in /home/me/public_html/testing/wp-includes/functions.php on line 1526
This file probably was there all along - I'm just really tired. Here's what that code looks like, lines 1521 to 1530: `function add_magic_quotes( $array ) {
foreach ( (array) $array as $k => $v ) {
if ( is_array( $v ) ) {
$array[$k] = add_magic_quotes( $v );
} else {
$array[$k] = addslashes( $v );
}
}
return $array;
}`

I added the user as a new user then deleted the old one. This worked for the user issue. Still need help on the admin footer showing up on top of the editor though!
