WP Woes Overcame

Wheeew…that has been an absolute drag.  What I am talking about is a snafu I ran into when I upgraded my WP software to 2.7.1.  Yikes.  I did a few things way to casually and it cost me 4 months of posts.  Here is what I did wrong.

1-I didn’t back up my current db right before I installed the upgrade.

2-I didn’t turn-off all of the plugins.

Yep so guess what happen?  When I upgraded I was no longer able to see the dashboard or the left panel which is where all of the admin stuff is.  I couldn’t just un-install and re-install because I had not backed up and would have lost all of the data. Nice.  So after hours and hours each week and literally months of trying to figure this out, I found the answer on a forum.  Yep.  Sadly I didn’t find it earlier.  My own fault as I must have looked at it 100 times over the last few months, kind of like moving the jelly in the fridge to find the jelly in the fridge….might be a guy thing.  No, better yet, lets use the ADD dyslexia thing.  Ha.  Bottom line, my own ding-dongness.  No biggie got it whipped in about 2 minutes when I figured out the “HOW”.  I figured out what to do and why much earlier, just couldn’t figure out how.  So there you have it. Stay tuned as I bring you up to speed on what is happening with Art Marketing Buzz and the Studio.
