Ah sweet – got it sorted out.

If anyone is having similar issues with GoDaddy and their theme (especially if it’s a premium theme and uses TinyMCE functions) you may need to disable a code similar to this in your theme functions.php file;
require_once(TEMPLATEPATH . '/includes/tinymce/tinymce.php');

Either delete or comment out.

James, I owe you a drink man!

Ah, so it turns out that it is the theme… Genius, didn’t think of that!

To rule out the combination, I deactivated the plugins and activated the theme, and got the error again…

Any idea what would cause this? Would it be functions.php, or something? When I re-uploaded the theme, I got the same problem (but I was running the theme for a few months on my old server without such issues).

Thanks for your reply.

I am getting the same issue… But I thought it may have something to do with me moving my wordpress install to a new host (from JustHost to GoDaddy).

Everything is working fine (after about 17 hours of hell) but my old users can no longer access the site (if their role is higher than subscriber).

Even lost the admin account, but I found I can make new admin accounts just fine using phpMyAdmin. From the admin dashboard, I can change roles, but only subscriber works. Users with higher roles return a 500 Internal Server Error.

I don’t use WordPress for general users, only for contributors, so I suppose I COULD set up all my writers as Admin, but one of them might “accidentally” change a setting and screw everything up…

Is there a work around anyone knows of? I mean, simply because it’s on “GoDaddy” doesn’t really help… surely there is a REASON for this not to work. (I’m on a Linux, shared host – WordPress 3.0.1)

Is there a way to manually set up an editor using phpMyAdmin directly into the database? I wonder if that would work…

I’ve also found that if I set up an admin, then change them to subscriber and BACK to Admin they return a 500 error, too.

Grrr… urge to kill: rising…….
