 * Hi there!
 * Yesterday afternoon we updated our phpmyadmin from 5.2 to 5.4. After the update,
   it became impossible to edit or create any new content on our wordpress site.
   We could create the content on a new page or post ect, make the edits on existing
   pages, but not save them at all. Every time we tried to save – we were redirected
   to the list of posts.
 * We spent quite a bit of time with our hosts tech support and narrowed it down
   to the compatibility with wordpress 4.1.1 and the two most recent versions of
   phpmyadmin. Once we went back to 5.2, all of the wordpress functionality was 
   restored.
 * The problem is, we have a bbphp forum we are trying to migrate over and it requires
   us to be using phpmyadmin 5.4. So, we are stuck. Has anyone else experienced 
   issues with this?
 * Thanks so much!

 * phpMyAdmin is a tool you use to graphically interact with your database. It has
   nothing to do with WordPress.
 * Did you update just phpMyAdmin, or did you update MySQL too?
