I tried Twenty Ten – no joy for me alas.

I deleted and replaced wp-admin – again no joy.

In fact I’ve tried everything on this thread.

I shall have a go on Chrome. I’m using IE8 right now and its working fine.

endgamepr – I have done the same as you, with the same results. Seems to work fine with IE8 – however I am loathe to use it.

Hopefully Firefox will come up with a bug fix.

phew – was starting to think i was alone. Suppose until its figured out it will force me to brush up on my html… but thats kind of not the point… :s

So I have replaced the wp-admin and wp-includes folders – however there is no change. Any further suggestions please? Thanks!

thanks – have checked that link but none of those apply to me unfortunately :s

WordPress itself says 3.1. My hosting says 3.0.4. I agree, I will contact the host to see if they have any advice – their website is clear as mud and directs users to www.remarpro.com.

I have tried the other method with no joy i’m afraid. Thanks for all your help though ??

Guess I will have to bite the bullet and replace the wp-admin and wp-includes folders.

yes exactly that – originally I installed using the easy-installation tool, and the update was done via the automatic update within WP itself. Unfortunately as you say, they are only offering 3.0.4 at the moment. Is it better me soldiering on until they catch up (if ever) or chancing it with thr replacement of the wp-admin and wp-includes folders? I’ve read some horror stories of people’s experiences when this was attempted and I’m worried!

So I’ve made backups of my wordpress files and the db via ftp – and have the fresh wp-admin and wp-includes folders ready to ftp to my hosting. My question is – I have WordPress installed via a Free 123-app easy site creation tool on my 123-reg hosting, which takes care of all the hassle for me (usually).

I have noticed that the version which appears to be installed on the server states 3.0.4 release 4. I’m wondering if this is causing the issue? I’m just very wary of doing anything that makes my situation worse!

I suppose I’m being over cautious but I just don’t have the time or knowledge for this to get any worse. Thanks for all the advice so far!

Thanks – I’ve just switched to Twenty Ten and the issue persists.

I shall now try a fresh copy of the wp-admin and wp-includes folders. Will this upset any of my configuration?

i have deactivated all of the plugins – no change
i have reset the plugins folder – no change

really dont want to change the theme in case its not the issue, but guess I’m going to have to

how would i go about re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a fresh download of WordPress please?
