However, none of the subsites are actually updating. They are all still 3.4.2.
How are you determining that?
Because in the bottom right corner of the dashboard it still says 3.4.2
And also all the buttons are still the old rounded style, not the more boxy style. also the links menu is still present… and many more differences that tell me its still 3.4.2
If the MAIN site (domain.com) says 3.5, ALL of your subsites will say 3.5, regardless of if you ran the backend upgrade or not. That’s pulled from files, not a DB call, so the setting is pretty much hard coded.
Does the main site say 3.5?
Are you 100% sure these are in a multisite network?
Mika – thanks for the reply… yes, the main site says 3.5.1.
But how come the styles haven’t updated?
Also, how would I verify that its a multisite network? I mean, I have a super admin, a My Sites menu, and can network activated/deactive themes & plugins, etc, etc.
Would would I do to verify 100%?
Go into the files.
Look at wp-includes/version.php
What do you have for $wp_version?
Also … can you give us the URLs of your sites?
Ok the version.php file lists the version as 3.5.1
you can view the sites at secureinvestorsdemo.com
thanks for any and all help
How weird… you’re on Multisite for sure (the subsites use /files/ for images) but view-source says <meta name="generator" content="WordPress 3.4.2" />
That shouldn’t be possible.
Reinstall the core files manually (it won’t impact your content) and re-run the netwprk upgrade.
manually reinstalling core seems to have fixed it. thanks.
