PHP error after changing permalinks

    So confused. I was editing one of my pages trying to get my site set up. I changed the name of the page I was editing, and then changed the way my blog organizes its permalinks. Immediately afterward, my entire blog became inaccessible, with this error:

    Fatal error: Cannot use object of type WP_Error as array in /home/jinxville/public_html/welcome3/wp-includes/category.php on line 137

    I have no idea what I did wrong, and I really don’t want to have to reinstall. I tried re-uploading a fresh version of category.php, but that didn’t do anything. But now I can’t even access my control panel to fiddle with the settings.

    Any help?

    agreed – I had this error after updating wordpress and my plugins and I can no longer access anything to disable it…

    EDIT: I removed the plugins, and found it was actually a plugin that was causing all 3 of my errors found in /wp-includes/query.php and /wp-includes/categories.php

    Once I yanked the plugin from the folder manually via FTP, everything was fixed. I’d recommend you make a duplicate copy of your /wp-content/plugins folder somewhere and then make a new one on your site and add them one-at-a-time to see if you can diagnose the offending plugin and then get rid of it or look for a fix for it? I’m not an expert, just trying to help out!
