• I cant add new posts, but I can when viewing the blog, add comments. I also cannot change the title or tagline on the blog. If I try to change these or add a new post, it acts like I didnt change anything at all. I dont get an error message when this happens. It just ignores my post. I have added new categories in the admin pannel, but those do not show up on the live blog. I can delete stuff, but I cant add new posts.

    I have already reinstalled wordpress and have the same issue. Any help would be much appreciated!

  • Hello,
    Im having the exact same problem. Not able to add new posts, and I keep trying to add new categories but they dont seem to stay. I am however able to add new titles, but thats it. I just went live with this, so maybe Im just making a stupid mistake while trying to post and change category names. Any suggestions are very much appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Rebecca

    Whew, im glad im not the only one. If this helps anyone with solving this issue, Iv talked to my hosting company to ask if it could be a permissions issue at the server level and they didnt think it was and suggested reinstalling wordpress. I did, same issues.

    I also cant edit the existing posts. This is very irritating. Im on the latest release of 2.1 so perhaps an older version would work? Im just stumped.

    I cant….


    Can you post a link to the site in question please.
    Also what version of MySQL and PHP is your host running? Lastly is the version 2.1.1 or 2.0.8

    Blog in question: https://www.innovativeinsite.com/newsite/blog/
    Linux server (if that makes a difference)
    PHP: 5.0.4
    MySQL: Ver 14.7 Distrib 4.1.10
    Wordpress: 2.1.1

    I am not running any plugins.

    Hello!
    I figured it out!
    Go to Users, then Your Profile and uncheck the “visual editor when writing”. Its not a perfect fix, but it works!
    Good luck!

    That didnt work for some reason. Is there any other symptoms I might be able to let you all know to help troubleshoot this?

    This isnt that fun of a first experience with wordpress. Im willing to stick with it if I can get it working right, though. Thanks again for any help!

    In poking around with this more, it almost seems like it might be an error with the database. Almost as if it werent able to add new information so it just punts. Might there be a way I can test to see if the database and wordpress are communicating all right?

    loquella…your fix worked for me, too! Thanks so much!!! I thought I was going crazy!
