  • Try re-uploading all files & folders from a fresh download of WordPress. Make sure that you delete the old copies of files & folder before uploading the new ones.

    I’m working locally, but that totally did the trick. I just did a fresh install. Thank you! I’m very, very new to WordPress, so I’m sure I will be back here often! ??
