    Okay,, I’ve earned the new title of website fixer! Sheesh and not that I knew what I was doing, but I used what I had and i made it make sense and well.. it worked

    I’m backed up… I can see images in my library.. well, the new ones since last night, all others still appear as grey boxes but they show on the blog.. So, I don’t care…

    The theme is up and running

    The image library is complete

    And it’s done, and up and running AND best yet working.

    It’s been one heck of a mont and I NEVER want to go through that again…

    Thank you for your helps. I’m not sure what was broken.. or why… but it’s working now, let’s hope it just stays working on the next update…

    be well folks

    I cannot see ALL the images but, I expected that and I can live with that if it means I can once again post.

    I am now on the standard theme with 3.4.1 I can post images, I can see images on both my library and blog.

    To me that is far better then I have had in the past month.

    My next move, at some point today is to try to reinstall my theme… If all goes well i will let my library remain and will continue on with a blog that is functional.

    I don’t want my old backup back.. that is when I could not post an image at all.. so that is not going to happen.

    I do have the backup and I will look for the library just in case but honestly I’m so happy to be able to post again.. I can’t even tell you.

    What I did may have been foolish in so many eyes, but desperate people do desperate things and this time, it worked…

    Why it worked I cannot tell you, why the upgrade did what it did to my blog I have no idea..

    I’m just happy I fixed it.

    I’ll let you know about the library and theme upgrade later tonight.

    Thank you

    Okay so here is what I now have.. a back end! LOL

    All my images are question marks in the library BUT, i just uploaded an image and it worked.. I can see it in the library but I can’t post anything..

    I’m on version 3.2.1 and it wants me to upgrade to 3.4.1

    UGH.. I’m scared to do it in case we go right back to where we were

    I know and never said you said to downgrade. I found it in my files and thought I would give it a shot, it did not work now I’m uploading the back up to the files again.. that will take some time.

    I have a backup that I did also from hostgator, but I’m uploading my backup from wordpress first… then I’ll go over to hostgator and try there.

    It would be great if the problem was solved.. ha ha

    I’m still uploading, or downloading…

    I had a backup it’s on my FTP and hostgator I did a back up there and they save the sites weekly so I have both..

    Well, right now I’m downgrading to that old file. I’ve got all the backups.

    I’m not a techky or web developer so a lot of this stuff has me lost. I have NO clue what that other site is talking about. Maybe I’m just to tired for all of this today I don’t know.. but the blank screen on my blog now looks more refreshing then all the fighting I was doing to salvage the old one..

    (@lisa-nikole)

    Oh but I will …then I’ll upgrade or downgrade to the 3.2.1 and hopefully work my way back up to the one before 3.4 1

    I have the back up of my site on my ftp so that is there..

    I’ve not talked to hostgator yet… I’m trying to figure out what i want to do.

    At this point I don’t think I have much of a choice…

    Thread Starter Lisa nikole

    (@lisa-nikole)

    From searching it looks like it will be 3.2.1

    Someone made an backup on my blog and hostgator should have one but I will make sure

    I ried to find info on this wordpress file, but the best I have is the date 9/9/11

    is there a way to find what update this was?

    If I upload a new image it appears to upload, but shows only as a grey box as all of them are grey boxes now… the pixels register as 0x0 Then I try to edit that image it shows a grey box or maybe it is an empty box, So I try to upload that empty grey 0x0 image and it shows to me on Safari as a blue box with a ? in.

    I did however find an older version of WP from 9/2011 I’m thinking of uploading that…

    I asked Hostgator to wipe it all clean and I can give it a fresh start

    the most frustrating thing is I did nothing but upgrade. I’ve spent an entire month following forum posts and trying to make it work. Today I’ve spend almost 5 hours with hostgator and wordpress.

    So at this point, would it not be easier to just wipe it all out. yes years and years of SEO and pictures and comments and links and start over since no one can find a fix?

    So what about that 2011 do you think I can upload it?
