 * I read both of those posts straight so at first I thought you were serious lol.
 * But yea, hopefully they will add this issue to the FAQ. I think the error popped
   up from a failure in an update that might have corrupted either the post tables
   or something like that. Anyway, since it’s fixed I’m all ok.
 * If you have to reinstall, make sure to rename your old database and blog, and
   to completely start over with the blog, but export your posts per user. (pending
   that you have more than one poster) I noticed that comment subscribers would 
   not come over so you will have to tell them to re-subscribe sadly. I also found
   that if you name the new database the same thing as the previous database all
   rss feeds and everything work just fine. They’ll automatically update.

 * Ok, I fixed it. Had to export the posts for each user individually via WordPress.
   Then install a new one over the old blog (not before backing up though) and then
   import the posts for each person while being logged in (I found that setting “
   import as existing user” made no difference, you have to be logged in with that
   user in order to import the posts as that user’s post or else all the posts will
   be imported under one user’s name). After that, everything worked. Blog is back
   up.
 * If possible perhaps you could sticky this or add this solution to the FAQ. If
   you need more info I can provide it.

 * No i’ve narrowed it down to a php error. I’ve tested installing wordpress under
   another php database and it works fine. This means that i’m going to have to 
   import our posts from the old wordpress database and install them in a new one,
   which means more-or-less reinstalling from scratch, and changing the database
   to the new one inside my blog once all posts are counted for and all….
 * It’s gonna be a bitch but it’s gotta be done…

 * The problem is not plugin related. I have just tested the php method of turning
   off plugins. I have already tested the folder method and changed the skin to 
   see if that was it.
 * No fix yet. Any other suggestions for how I can fix this problem?

 * i have tried deactivating and renaming the plugins folder, but not changing the
   theme to the default. I don’t think it’s theme related cuz it’s in the admin 
   panel, and the theme i have now has been there since we started the blog. Unless
   the update had something the theme was using that probably isn’t it. I’ll try
   resetting the plugins folder soon, until then can you offer more suggestions?
