It worked fine. I copied the text into a new page and then inserted the same images into the text and all went well so I trashed the defective page. Yeah, it’s a solution but it simply reinforces my anxiety about the stability of wordpress on one’s own server. Thanks for your continuing concern. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Clicking Edit for a page yields html only, no visual.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clicking-edit-for-a-page-yields-html-only-no-visual/) * Thread Starter [pixelcounter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixelcounter/) * (@pixelcounter) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clicking-edit-for-a-page-yields-html-only-no-visual/#post-2054185) * Thank you for your suggestions. As noted, I had already disabled **all** plugins and I confirmed this by resetting the plugins folder with PhpMyAdmin as you suggested. It was reset. I had negelected to mention it but I am using Twenty Ten. * Interestingly, I had been unable to edit this page at all when I was developing it without first deactivating plugins. After that and after page development things worked fine for awhile. ONly when I sought to Edit the page a couple of days ago to remove the password requirement did I run into this trouble. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [3.1 loaded with twentyten; homepage is not the theme](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/31-loaded-with-twentyten-homepage-is-not-the-theme/) * Thread Starter [pixelcounter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixelcounter/) * (@pixelcounter) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/31-loaded-with-twentyten-homepage-is-not-the-theme/#post-1997542) * Thanks for the suggestion. I moved all of the 3.1 files to my root directory; I used phpMyAdmin to change the entries for siteurl and home in wp-options; and checked that my 1&1 Domain Destination is the root directory. So, [http://www.bergiesplace.com](http://www.bergiesplace.com) is working again after months of part time struggling and frustrations with upgrades to 2.8 and 3 and 3.05 and now 3.1, with a update of MySql to 5 along the way and a new theme along the way. Doing WordPress on other servers is not for sissies. Now maybe I can get some content added. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [3.01-Links to images broken](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/301-links-to-images-broken/) * Thread Starter [pixelcounter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixelcounter/) * (@pixelcounter) * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/301-links-to-images-broken/#post-1794063) * OK. Thanks. I just have to re-upload the images for this blog. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [3.01-Links to images broken](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/301-links-to-images-broken/) * Thread Starter [pixelcounter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixelcounter/) * (@pixelcounter) * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/301-links-to-images-broken/#post-1794032) * My problem is with the images that are to be contained within the blog, not with the blogroll kind of links which, yes, do work. On my homepage [http://www.bergiesplace.com/Newsite](http://www.bergiesplace.com/Newsite) the Vermont Panorama image is missing. Further, when I try to edit the blog and add other pictures from my Media Library, all images previously stored there have entries on the Media Library page but each enty carries the broken link symbol instead of the image. Interesting that it can determine the list of images but not retrieve the images, themselves. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Home page a blank screen after converting to 3.01](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/home-page-a-blank-screen-after-converting-to-301/) * Thread Starter [pixelcounter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixelcounter/) * (@pixelcounter) * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/home-page-a-blank-screen-after-converting-to-301/#post-1793320) * Yep, it’s a theme issue. Dash board tells me that the theme I was using before updating to 3.01 (Garland) is “broken” and the installation reverted to Twenty Ten. I certainly regret upgrading to 3.01. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [White screen for the site after upgrading to 2.8.6](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/white-screen-for-the-site-after-upgrading-to-286/) * Thread Starter [pixelcounter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixelcounter/) * (@pixelcounter) * [16 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/white-screen-for-the-site-after-upgrading-to-286/#post-1304059) * mrbungle, I am using IE8. For what it’s worth I suggest you follow up on kenkholland’s suggestion. Check the content of Uploads in the wp-config folder. That solved my problem. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [White screen for the site after upgrading to 2.8.6](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/white-screen-for-the-site-after-upgrading-to-286/) * Thread Starter [pixelcounter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixelcounter/) * (@pixelcounter) * [16 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/white-screen-for-the-site-after-upgrading-to-286/#post-1304058) * OK, henkholland, I’m back in business, and even with my preferred theme rather than the default. The upload folder under the wp-config folder in 2.6.8 had ** no entries**. Apparently, I should have transferred that folder from the 2.7.1 folder into its right place in the 2.8.6 folder. * The need for this hadn’t occurred to me as I assumed that my uploads were all still in MySQL and would be accessed as needed by the 2.8.6 system. I obviously need to get a better reference on and understanding of the structure of wordpress. * The WordPress instructions on upgrading do, in fairness, tell one to “Delete any old WP files, saving ones you’ve modified.” and I, obviously, didn’t know the need to save the old wp-config folder. * Well, another learning experience (at age 77, do I still need these?). On a personal note, I started at RCA in 1959 and in the lab next door, they were still doing service bureau work on the RCA **vacumn tube **machine, BIZMAC. Since then, it’s been one damn thing after another. * I am indebted for your suggestions and guidance, and I thank you. Be Well! * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [White screen for the site after upgrading to 2.8.6](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/white-screen-for-the-site-after-upgrading-to-286/) * Thread Starter [pixelcounter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixelcounter/) * (@pixelcounter) * [16 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/white-screen-for-the-site-after-upgrading-to-286/#post-1304048) * Thanks for hanging in. The picture links appear to be identical. * What was interesting is that when I converted to the default theme on 2.8.6, the post page now appears and one can also call up the pages. However, the picture links are broken. I checked wp-config for 2.8.6 (with default theme)and the database entries are all correct. I further replaced wp-config in the 2.8.6 folder with the version from the 2.7.1 folder which, as you’ll recall, did work ok. It still show broken links in 2.8.6. I’ve left the 2.8.6 version in place at [http://www.bergiesplace.com/Newsite](http://www.bergiesplace.com/Newsite). * Another wierd thing: with 2.8.5, the default theme, and its original wp-config, if I go to its dashboard and try to edit the post, I see the post briefly and it is then replaced with about three lines of spaces and red periods. With the version of wp-config from 2.7.1, I can access the post for editing. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [White screen for the site after upgrading to 2.8.6](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/white-screen-for-the-site-after-upgrading-to-286/) * Thread Starter [pixelcounter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixelcounter/) * (@pixelcounter) * [16 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/white-screen-for-the-site-after-upgrading-to-286/#post-1304028) * Interestingly, nothing happened for me when I clicked for Automatic Upgrade so I clicked Manual. I downloaded the .zip file and opened it into a directory on my desktop. Then I ftp’d it to bergiesplace.com/Newsite. Because of my subsequent difficulties I would up uploading it two to three times so I discount an ftp- induced problem. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [White screen for the site after upgrading to 2.8.6](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/white-screen-for-the-site-after-upgrading-to-286/) * Thread Starter [pixelcounter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixelcounter/) * (@pixelcounter) * [16 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/white-screen-for-the-site-after-upgrading-to-286/#post-1304004) * Thanks for your time. I checked the wp-admin database prefix in both versions, 2.7.1 (which works) and 2.8.6 (which doesn’t.) They are the same in each case as are the WordPress and Blog Addresses under Settings/General. Yes, there is only one post and two pages as I haven’t yet converted from my bergiesplace.wordpress. com blog. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [White screen for the site after upgrading to 2.8.6](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/white-screen-for-the-site-after-upgrading-to-286/) * Thread Starter [pixelcounter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pixelcounter/) * (@pixelcounter) * [16 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/white-screen-for-the-site-after-upgrading-to-286/#post-1303871) * P.S. I negelected to mention that if I click on Visit Site on the Dashboard, I get a white screen. Viewing 12 replies - 1 through 12 (of 12 total)
