3.1 upgrade broke all interactive functionality in dashboard

    I have a website upgraded from 3.0.5 to 3.1 and all the interactive functionality was broken in the dashboard. None of the quick edit functionality worked, nor any of other interactive boxes. There is now way to set a post to sticky for example and things like this.

    All my choice was to revert back to 3.0.5 which took me an hour to figure out.

    It’s not a hosting problem, as a brand new 3.1 is running smoothly on the same host.

    Of course I tried disabling all plugins.

    try:

    -deactivating ALL plugins temporarily to narrow down and possibly fix the problem. If the problem goes away, activate them individually (one-by-one) to find the culprit.

    -switching to the default theme (“twentyten”) for a moment by renaming your current theme’s folder in wp-content/themes. The idea is to force WordPress to fall back to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific issue.

    – resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems (because the hooks remain unless plugins completelt removed).

    -If the above steps do not resolve the issue, Download WordPress again and replace your copies of everything EXCEPT the wp-config.php file and the /wp-content/ directory with fresh copies. This should replace your core files without changing your content and settings in wp-config.php file and the /wp-content/ directory.

    I am having a similar problem, after upgraded from 3.0.5 to 3.1 I can not access any of the dashboard functions, I just get:

    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare register_column_headers() (previously declared in /home/****/public_html/blog/wp-admin/includes/template.php:814) in /home/****/public_html/blog/wp-admin/includes/list-table.php on line 58

    @t-p: Thanks for the reply, it was the theme which did the bug. I never thought that a theme can have such an effect on the admin interface. The theme’s dev did an update for compatibility with 3.1 and now the theme works ok. It was Autofocus+ BTW.
