 * This question has been asked many times and no one seems to know the answer.
 * I think you can look at wp-admin/edit_form_advanced.php for a peek at how things
   are laid out in the Write > Post panel.

 * are you running PHP4 or PHP5?

 * Ok i found that that this was because of the xmlrpc from 2.3.3 wasn’t playing
   well with PHP5. I reverted to PHP4 and things are good.
 * Another question with pingbacks though:
 * I’m receiving emails when someone leave a comment, but not receiving emails when
   someone pings one of my posts.
 * Is there a way to troubleshoot this? How does WP handly pingbacks vs. comments
   in email notifications?
 * Thanks.

 * Thanks Otto, I had checked that out as well but the project is dead. The download
   link is broken and the feedback on the project blog is closed.
 * Any other possibilities?

 * Not sure if this has been resolved already, but i fixed this on my own sites 
   by enabling phpmail()
 * So if you’ve just migrated to a different server, this may be the case.
 * But if it worked before, nothing changed, and now emails don’t get sent, this
   probably won’t solve your problem.

 * Hmm, no I’m not using any SSL login plugin (or any login plugin whatsoever).
 * Maybe it has something to do with the htaccess rewrite rules.
 * —
 * Edit: I’ll also note that I’m on a shared server, so folks with a dedicated or
   VPS systems might not experience the same thing.
 * Another option i’m looking into is DNS failover, which has worked well in the
   past.

   super cache.
 * Things are working fast again with the object cache and wp-cache2. Phew!

 * You can create cron jobs to run on a daily basis to backup your db from one server
   and then import it on the other server. Not exactly mirroring, but pretty close.
