No changes taking effect anywhere in backend

  • In trying to make any changes to anything (general settings, plugin settings, deactivating plugins, changing themes), when I click to save changes, the page reloads and all of the changes revert back.

    The last time I logged in I didn’t have a problem making changes.

    When I try to create a new post and save it as a draft, I’m redirected to a page with the message “You are not allowed to edit this post.”

    When I attempt to activate another theme, I get the successful “Theme activated” message at the top, but nothing actually changes and the old theme remains active.

    When I attempt to deactivate plugins, I get the successful “plugin deactivated” message, but it’s state does not change and the plugin remains active.

    I’ve tried renaming the plugins folder. Overwrote all of the core wordpress files with a fresh install. Changed folder permissions to 755 and file permissions to 644. Nothing works.

    All of my user accounts are admin, yet it *FEELS* like they don’t have admin rights.

    Also, I’m not running any cache plugins

    Any ideas?

    Any WordPress guys know what the issue might be?

    I haven’t been able to post for well over a month and I’m getting over 100 spam comments/day

    I’m having these issues too. It’s mainly trying to create a new users. I can’t do it, it says created, but nothing is there. I went in to the database and added one there, and it works fine, but doing it from WP isn’t working.

    Also I’ve installed the plugin “Crony” and that isn’t creating new cron jobs either. I think it’s a permissions issue. We are on a windows server and I tried setting the site install folder to full permissions for everyone, but it’s still not working.

    Hello. I fixed my problem about not being able to save new content to the database. The database was in strict mode. I disabled strict mode via the instructions here https://lynnepope.net/turn-off-mysql-strict-mode and it works fine now.
