Maybe this would be a good time to learn how to run a server off an old computer…hosting is expensive no matter where you go!
I tried a manual upgrade and I tried disabling all the plugins. My blog works fine, but my dashboard has no formatting and many options are broken after doing an automatic upgrade to WordPress 2.8. I am on GoDaddy’s free hosting using PHP5 and MSQL 4.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
