In reply to: cant get to my admin area even though Im logged in?just to be clear…
I go to: mysite.com/wp-admin, (or click on dashboard) but it keeps sending me to:
http://mysite.com/wp-admin/upgrade.php?_wp_http_referer=%2Fwp-admin%2F
so I cant get into admin area… says page not found. 🙁

In reply to: editing a post. nothing is there?any ideas? on a new post, the text is white in the box as im typing, and the background is white so I cant see it. same for editing posts already there. this is crazy? whats going on? was fine earlier today.
I was reading wordpress ultimate security and did a few code entries in the htaccess file. could this have caused this?

In reply to: admin login attempts.thanks. I’ve been doing that but I read somewhere that IP banning is a waste of time, they can just get new IPs?
I did installed a block country plugin. so I”ll see if I’m able to stop them by using this mod. 🙂

In reply to: [BackUpWordPress] cant download in admin area. why?its working now. I was entering the info wrong.
to exclude folders in root type in:
foldername/
just like that. now to test, but I think I got it.
happens with the older version too It would appear. could be a bug in the template? or the plugin? or wordpress? who knows?
I dont have time to figure it out. I would post a screen shot but cant seem to do that here.
