    Sign of madness: talking to myself.

    I’ve not come across this problem specifically, but I will offer a word of advice:

    Sometimes it’s easier and less time consuming to backup your entire WP directory locally, do a new install, and copy over your wp-config.php, themes, plugins, and uploads folders to your new install than trying to search for the needle in the haystack!
