t-p thank you for recommending that sticky to me, however i was having these issues in an older version of wordpress and alas still have them after upgrading. I do not think it is a version specific issue.
I have gone through that sticky and checked / done the items recommended and am still getting the error message.
The error message is only appearing when I try to access the file with the url:
https://the-investor-advocate.com/wp-admin/post-new.php
Could a fresh version of that file be helpful if ftp’d to replace the current version?
Again, all plugins are deactivated and I did test the site utilizing twenty ten to see if it was theme related. it wasn’t
Thank you all for any help or suggestions you might have on this issue!
