for the time being, I set up a free wordpress blog and forwarded my domain to let visitors know about the problem. We are going to upgrade to the newest version of wp and hope that fixes it
I am not sure about the file structure. Ran a DB repair and everything looks ok except the wp options says missing or corrupted. Ya, I figured I better upgrade while I am dealing with this. I didn’t upgrade before because I was afraid to screw something up. So now that someone else screwed it up for me, I can go ahead and do it.
