 * I placed the video code in the video field of the WordPress page. Apparently,
   in the theme I use, there are three types of formats for posts — standard, gallery,
   and video. There is a video field for pasting the video code. I assume that placing
   the code in the text field renders it differently. Good luck!

 * My wrong. The functions-post.php indeed has 1032 lines, yet I still get the same
   message over and over. Today I tried to upgrade to 2.0.7 with the same result:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /home/

 * I tried this over and over. I followed the steps and yet I still get the same
   error message:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /home/
   websagen/public_html/wordpress/wp-includes/functions-post.php on line 779
 * This file, functions-post.php doesn’t even have 779 lines…
 * I give up and will uninstall and go back to 2.0.5, since nobody here helped.

 * I tried the same again — no result.
 * Then I uninstalled WP and installed it from my webhost’s Fantastico automatically
   into 2.0.5. When I attempted to upgrade to 2.0.6 following the instructions, 
   I got the same error message…
 * Then I removed that installation and did a manual installation of the 2.0.6 from
   scratch and got the same error:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /home/
   websagen/public_html/wordpress/wp-includes/functions-post.php on line 779
 * This is the error mistake I always receive. What gives???

 * I even deleted all the files and tried to install rather than upgrade. Once I
   ran install.php I got asked for wp-config.php and after I installed it, I got
   the same message (now on [http://www.lmmiller.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php](http://www.lmmiller.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php)):
 * Parse error: parse error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /home/
   lawre2/public_html/blog/wp-includes/functions-post.php on line 773
 * I really do need help from someone who can help me with this! Thanks in advance!

 * OK, sorry, I was confused about which index should I change — the one in wordpress/
   index.php (this is where I put require(‘../wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’);
    or
   the one in /wp-content/themes/ShadedGrey…
 * Thanks, it all works now!
