Site Admin Broken

    I just updated my site to WP 2.7. The site works fine (as far as I can tell), but my Site Admin is broken. Instead of being formatted properly with manage, write, design..etc; all of the text is listed down the left hand site and is very hard to read and navigate. Basically it looks like the HTML formatting of the admin page is gone.

    Any thoughts on what I did wrong and how I can fix it?

    try uploading the contents of the /wp-admin folder again
    then reset permalinks
    admin – settings – permalinks

    I recently transferred a blog to a new server. Everytime I try to go to the blog at http://www.u2canhavesuccess.com/weightlosshelp I get an error message that not found, Error 404. Also, everything on the page is out of whack. I finally was able to stop the database errors, but I would still get this 404 error message. Can someone help me out? Thanks

    I had the same problem using Apache web servers. I moved to a new host and discovered that they didn’t give me the same folder structure as the old host. Using your URL names as an example, here’s what I had:

    OLD URL: http://www.weightlosshelp.u2canhavesuccess.com
    OLD PATH:
    /weightlosshelp/<my blog files>
    /htdocs/<my main web site>

    NEW URL: http://www.u2canhavesuccess.com/weightlosshelp/
    NEW PATH:
    /public_html/<my main web site>/weightlosshelp/<my blog files>

    If that doesn’t fix your problem, you may need to investigate the .htaccess file. I never did figure it out, but I hacked my .htaccess file and managed to make my blog work. Here’s what I put in it:

    Options -indexes
    DirectoryIndex <my web site start page>
    DirectoryIndex /blog/wp-admin/install.php
    DirectoryIndex /blog/wp-admin/index.php
    DirectoryIndex /blog/index.php
