 * As far as I can tell template-loader uses the constant TEMPLATEPATH to find the
   themes directory.
 * >  `} else if ( file_exists(TEMPLATEPATH . “/index.php”) ) {
   >  include(TEMPLATEPATH.“/
   > index.php”);`
 * The only place I could find the definition of TEMPLATEPATH is in wp-settings.
   php, where I found this line:
 * > `define('TEMPLATEPATH', get_template_directory());`
 * That function calls two other functions
 * > `function get_template_directory() {
   >  $template = get_template(); $template_dir
   > = get_theme_root() . “/$template”; return apply_filters(‘template_directory’,
   > $template_dir, $template); }`
 * Which look like this:
 * > `function get_template() {
   >  return apply_filters(‘template’, get_option(‘template’));}`
   >     ```
   >     function get_theme_root() {
   >     	return apply_filters('theme_root', WP_CONTENT_DIR . "/themes");
   >     }

 * wp-content/themes exists and has the theme in it (switched it to default just
   to be sure). From the fact that I can get my uploaded images to appear in the
   editing view I conclude that wordpress can find my WP_CONTENT_DIR
    And that’s
   about where I give up…. Anyone?

 * I got to that point (admin access, no site) with the automatic upgrade. I can
   tell you that it’s not an htaccess issue in my case. Deleted it, edited by hand,
   no change whatsoever.
    On top of it all my hosts’ pHpAdmin gives an error when
   restoring the database and I can’t get direct access to the SQL server because
   it keeps disconnecting me. I’m afraid I’m out of options now….

 * I just tried switching which version of PHP is used (tried both 4 and 5) by adding
   a line to the htaccess file. Didn’t work either.

 * I’ve got a similar problem I think, after upgrading to 2.8. I can get to the 
   admin page, but none of the posts or pages on the blog will show up in the browser.
   Firefox says:
 * > Redirect Loop
   > Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address
   > in a way that will never complete.
   > The browser has stopped trying to retrieve the requested item. The site is

 * . Deleting .htaccess does not solve it. Any other suggestions would be very much
   appreciated.
