    Hi

    One of my sites went live a while ago and I wanted to go and update plugins and add new plugins but now I cannot access my backend.

    http://www.execdoors.co.za/ – views fine, works fine

    http://www.execdoors.co.za/wp-admin, I get the following error:

    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare check_password_reset_key() (previously declared in /home/m0031140/public_html/wp-login.php:281) in /home/m0031140/public_html/wp-includes/user.php on line 1637

    Any ideas?

  • Hi,

    Kindly upgrade your WordPress to latest version. That might solve the issue.

    Hi PD

    I have gone through the manual update and everything seemed to go smoothly. I updated the database successfully but then when I went to login it didn’t recognise my username and password. I put in my email address in order for the username and password to be emailed to me and this is what I received:

    The e-mail could not be sent.
    Possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function.

    Do you have any ideas on how to proceed?

    Hi

    Okay after much investigation, I realised that because I was working on localhost I was using an older username and password. So everything is fine now. I updated wordpress locally and uploaded to live host and all is good. Thank you for your assistance!!

    I have this same problem (looks like it was caused by a security plug-in) trying to update manually but I am new at this and what comes up from http://codex.wordpress.org/Upgrading_WordPress#Manual_Update is a screen with (HTML?) text like
    ……..

    elected-themes&themes=’ . urlencode(implode(‘,’, $themes));
    $url = wp_nonce_url($url, ‘bulk-update-themes’);

    $title = __(‘Update Themes’);

    require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/admin-header.php’);
    echo ‘<div class=”wrap”>’;
    echo ‘<h2>’ . esc_html__(‘Update Themes’) . ‘</h2>’;
    echo “<iframe src=’$url’ style=’width: 100%; height: 100%; min-height: 750px;’

    which I don’t know what to do with? is this what should be happening?
