 * esmi: I understand you don’t want anyone rolling back for security reasons, but
   I had to. I couldn’t login to wordpress after my browser closed and I wasn’t 
   about to play the guessing game with plugins nor was I going to be able to load
   a different theme as my working site would be broken.
 * Also, I think the point of everyone posting on this post is to show the instability
   of 3.9.1 and to try as a group to find a common solution. The problems are widespread
   with 3.9.1. I personally experienced:
    – Could not access the image gallery to
   select the featured image post – Somehow, not sure how, but one of my theme php
   files was getting loaded into the header of the wordpress admin console. I knew
   this because a ‘pin it’ button showed up on my console. I traced it to a php 
   file, commented out the html on that file, and saw the admin console html to 
   see the commented out html – Whenever I would ‘save’ a post, I would end up at
   a blank page – The admin site became extremely unstable with blank pages intermittently
   and just random strangeness. – After I closed my browser, I could no longer login
   and I received a cookies error (cookies were on and had never been a problem 
   before)
 * So you see, this is a very unstable release. There is obviously something wrong
   with 3.9.1 based on all the comments here. I think it’s just crazy that everyone
   is told to: disable all plugins, change your theme, remove your entire site and
   see if that helps.
 * I am not planning on upgrading now or in the near future because of this, I’m
   back down to a release of WP that is probably not as secure, but I’d rather that
   than not be able to post articles to my site.
 * I hope the rest of the people on this thread find a solution. Good luck!

 * I have shell access and had made a manual backup before updating. I just reverted
   to that by copying the files. Not the best way to do it, but I had nothing else
   I could do when the login just wouldn’t work. Once I copied the files, the wp
   admin interface was functional again.

 * I wound up not being able to login after my browser closed and reopened. It gave
   me an error about cookies. No messages in the logs or in the browser console.
   I just gave up and applied my backup so that I could get my console back.

 * I’m having the same problem. How do I downgrade to 3.9.0? I can’t disable all
   my plugins and switch the theme… this is a working website. 🙁 I’ve disabled 
   the plugins that are not critical, but nothing.

 * Ok, so my workaround is I added the above code to one of my other plugins where
   it’s registering post types. That works, but makes me nervous. Hopefully it won’t
   cause anything to go haywire. Fingers crossed!

 * Well, this is odd. I see the directory wpcontent/wptouch-data/themes, but it’s
   empty. There is a bauhaus/default/functions.php in wpcontent/plugins/wptouch/
   themes directory.
 * Editing and adding the above code there doesn’t do anything. This is so strange.
   Is there any debugging I can turn on to look at what messages come through when
   trying to save the theme general settings?
