Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Windows to Linux host migration – sites not workingI spent another 40 minutes on the phone with GoDaddy with no solution. They had no advice for me except to tell me that a style sheet or template was missing even though I insisted I was looking right at them via FTP.
Then I noticed the redirect after again attempting to login to bidenizm.com/wp-login.php. It changed to bidenizm.com/bidenizm.com/wp-login.php. This appeared to be incorrect General Settings>WordPress Address & Site Address settings in WP admin.
Without dashboard access, I went into myadmin and changed the default wp_options>siteurl and wp_options>home values from https://bidenizm.com/bidenizm.com to just https://bidenizm.com/
The site works perfectly now, all because these values were somehow not preserved during the migration. I hope this helps someone else.

In reply to: WP-login crashed after server moveI have an almost identical problem with 2 of my 5 WP sites.
I migrated from a Godaddy Windows server to a Linux server yesterday and my main domain and 2 other sites work perfectly. They don’t seem to think it’s their problem since it seems to be a software issue. 2 sub-domains have broken styling and redirect all links to their broken homepages, so no access to wp-admin.
I have tried renaming all plugins via ftp, renamed all themes to force it to use 2011, and have renamed and commented out all I can find of w3 total cache, which I thought might be the problem. Now all I get is a blank screen. re-activating my theme gets me back to the broken styling homepage with the same redirect results. I’ve even tried phpmyadmin to change the wp-options/permalink setting and reset the plug-ins with no luck. The weird thing is that all 3 other sites work fine and are similarly configured with the same plug-ins, one even having the same theme.
My sites that don’t work are
https://bidenizm.com
https://milleniumgamer.comIs there anything else I can do?

In reply to: I lost access to wp-admin when I upgraded… then I fixed things!deifos-
No, I haven’t found anything that works via a godaddy installation. I’m wary about trying again in case the ‘uninstall’ button somehow disappears.
I’ve manually installed 3.4 for some of my other sites and I’m not sure the features are worth the aggravation if something goes wrong again trying this on my main site.

In reply to: I just updated to the new wordpress and now I can't login!Yep, using the Rollback option on the Go Daddy application management page worked like a charm. I have full access to my dashboard again.

In reply to: I just updated to the new wordpress and now I can't login!I’ve tried disabling all the plug-ins via phpmyadmin, deleting all themes via ftp to force WP to use twentyeleven, but that just wiped out the site completely.
I’m now trying the “rollback” option on the Go Daddy Application management page. I hope it works. Still can’t find any other way to get into my dashboard with WP 3.4.2. Just an FYI to anyone having this same problem!

In reply to: I lost access to wp-admin when I upgraded… then I fixed things!I upgraded through the GoDaddy webhosting page WITHOUT using the WP dashboard link and have lost all access to my admin dashboard, so, obviously, this did not work for me.
