I use FTP to upload big files – it gets around all those pesky max upload file size issues.

There might be some plugin or something that manages unknown attachments if you’ve got a lot of them to deal with.

I’m not sure I understand.

Manage->Import from the Admin panel has lots of options. If that’s not what you want, please explain more.

Awesome, Trey! I have a client with that problem. Your instructions worked perfectly.

Yes, we need to upgrade and will, but getting back on the air was their first priority.

If there was bump system on this forum, you’d get big bump up.

that rdf file needs read permissions and all the directories leading to it need proper read permissions and exec permissions for the webserver.

Sounds to me like a Msyql version mismatch. The only decent cure is to make sure the new server is a later version (or equal) to the old server.

Been there. It’s a downgrading problem. Your new host has an older version of mysql, charset handling changed from V3, V4, and V5 and are not downgradable. While it is possible to fix the syntax after a lot of mysql RTFM and get it to load, it’s going to have broken characters and can’t really be undone if you do that. Trust me.Just don’t do it.

Ask your new host to updgrade their mysql version or find a different host.

Sigh.

If you are self hosting, I’d say it sounds like a DNS problem

I’m sorry I mentioned subdomain. Between DNS and Apache and hosting services you can get some “interesting” things. Add our own mod_rewrite and mod_security rules and embedding WP from outside the domain/URI is not easy.

Without the posters real domain name setup and folder setup, we can’t point to the to a solution..

Now I remember too! As nubirth said. the .ico format is a challenge for some “alternative” platforms.

Oddly enough, folks select themes based on the front page and later discover that the archives and categories aren’t what they want. So they fix the theme or get better one or they get a plugin or hire someone. A little reading in the codex about themes will help you.

PHP is very picky about missing and extra characters.

Yes, contact your hosting service for help immediately. You not need the bandwidth charges on your bill.

I’ve seen this one. I don’t remember how I fixed it. I vaguely remember that it was a post/page status setting or maybe a date in the future.

I won’t delete things in the DB with phpadmin unless I really know what I’m doing and I make a backup first.

Ps, If you’re using Safari, it has some odd caching behavour when it comes to the admin panels. If you are, login with firefox and see if the zombie is still there.

Very curious. I wonder if there is something in the css chain that is causing Firefox to work extra hard. With nothing but a wild ass guess, I’d check that the style sheet and theme have correct URI in them – make IE is fixing an error that FF can’t do as quickly. Only a wild ass guess. Or really difficult layout.

Two subdomains could bite you several ways, some more nasty and subtle that the following simple checks: Any chance your other domain doesn’t have apache configured for php. Or you have a top level .htaccess that’s not what you want.

If you remember, the wp-config file has some hardcoded setup info and the admin set up also has a couple of hardcoded URL’s. All kind of funny stuff “happens” when those don’t match and depending on what you include from another domain you should expect plenty of anti-hijacking security related failures.
