 * My blog was doing great, then suddenly one day WordPress puts out an update and
   now I get this:
 * Fatal error: Cannot redeclare pka4() (previously declared in /home/content/j/
   o/c/jocavanaugh/html/panthers/index.php(1) : eval()’d code:1) in /home/content/
   j/o/c/jocavanaugh/html/panthers/wp-config.php(1) : eval()’d code on line 1
 * I back up all my files, uninstall, then reinstall through GoDaddy. It puts up
   a new blog, but I can’t figure out how to get all my files to work, so my blog,
   images, posts etc all can work again.

 * Did you delete your MySQL database when you reinstalled? if you didn’t delete
   your database, your posts and pages are still there; you need to set the database
   URL in your wp-config.php.

    I posted a response
   to your comment on the Go Daddy forum. Want to make sure you get the assistance
   you need. I went to your site and it appears everything is working fine. Let 
   me know if you still need some help with this.

 * Interesting that GoDaddy monitors these forums….

 * songdogtech, what is interesting is that I once got a phone call from GoDaddy
   in response to my comments on a forum entry here. So yes, they not only monitor
   the forums, but they also look up who is complaining about them and hunt them
   down!

    I wouldn’t
   say we hunt our customers down! We seek out our customers so that we can assist
   them and obtain their feedback.
