Hi!

I had huge trouble with this also – super frustrating. But after a while I actually found a fix.

What you need to do is edit the wp-config.php on your new site. Follow what this guy says and it should work.

Thanks for your reply, but that doesn’t change anything.

The code that is there right now ` <meta charset=”<?php bloginfo(‘charset’); ?>” />
`
should get the charset I have set in the admin panel I guess. Which is UTF-8…

I fixed it myself, yeeey!

Turns out my main-content div didn’t contain the 404 part of the loop. For some reason, leaving that while removing the rest of the loop made the page crash!

Solved it!

I made a copy of my entire theme folder and renamed it to TEST. I did this cause I wanted to see if there was one specific file that caused the problem. I then renamed the theme in the style.css to TEST, and then finally, everything was back to normal. Can it have something to do with me useing ??? in my theme name? Seems odd…!

well, i’m not excactly copying it. Im making a new .php file in the theme folder with the nessecary template code in my post above. That should give me the option to override the page.php in the drop-down when i edit my page, right? Well the drop-down wont show up…

I might also add that if i switch theme to twentyten it works fine, even with my own custom template. Is there any other bit of code i might have tinkered with?
