 * Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 262144 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate
   122880 bytes) in /home/clickdi/public_html/words/wp-admin/includes/dashboard.
   php on line 550
 * The above shows when I try to login and make changes, hence I can’t get in. I
   recently tried to update to 3.2 via the automatic button? My blog is still showing,
   but I can’t access it. Please advise.

 * In wp-config.php, try adding this.
 * `define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');`
 * If this works, great. If not, let us know.
