Thanks again to Megan for the massive help. Have started to clear my blogs. I will let you know how it goes. However I now have another problem that again I do need some help with, and is potentially far more damaging than the jamming.

Towards the end of last week I upgraded my 4 blogs to 3.2. 3 went through fine but the 4th (my Health blog and the biggest) has developed a HTTP500 error.

I am scared stiff to touch it as there are weeks of hards work in it and I don’t want to lose it, however if I don’t get it back up and running I cannot enter more posts and more importantly nobody will see it and no income.

I show below the printout from WordPress after I tried to upgrade. Could someone please tell me a SIMPLE and foolproof way of getting the blog back to where it was. This is URGENT please.

Although I can understand some of this above,others bits I simply do not understand. Writing articles I am fine with, techie stuff and my brain goes to mush! Can someone please give me SIMPLE instractions on how to get back weeks of hard work to where it should be.

If you can you will be top of my Christmas card list!
