Problem resolved. Used WP Super cache. Deleted all cache files (“advanced-cache.php”, “wp-cache-config.php” + “cache” folder @ /wp-content). All ok. Janasoul, if you use any cahce, delete it. It obviously doesn’t work just by removing the plugin.

Downgraded to 2.9.1. Nothing. I’m getting fairly desperate here. Janasoul – do you have MediaTemple as your host?

I’ve even tried to download 2.9.2 and do a manual install. Still nothing. I’m not sure if I can “downgrade” to the previous version, but perhaps that’s what’s necessary? Or could it be, that I don’t have any MySQL connection? Will this render all pages white? Anyone having any experience in this? Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Just to clarify, I’ve also replaced the database with a previous backup. Nothing works here either…

I am also curious about this. I am having troubles regarding the “default” tagging of pages, because of the SearchEverything plugin which I am also using. I have some conditional stuff going on in my search results which garbles things up because pages are assigned this static category per default…

My Akismet is 2.0, not 1.8, and no settings has been changed since I upgraded… Can’t understand why Akismet should be 1.8 – have tried to download 2.1 again just to be sure and Akismet is still v2.0 there…?

Have installed Bad Behaviour, but I would still like to get Akismet back to work again…

Well, I have updated Akismet. Still the same problem… ??

I have a post about this also. I am getting hammered with spam now after upgrading to 2.1 and I really need a hint as to figuring out what to do!

boerbabe: Oh you’re absolutely right, but it is still way more cumbersome to constantly getting e-mails about irrelevant postings and handling them manually, than to have Akismet do the work for you.

But the “indexing better” theory does not apply to me – the Akismet spam count at my site is constant whereas all spam ends up in my moderation queue – hence Akismet is non-functional. And it would be great to have it up and running again… ??

Is there any way I can check up on the Akismet functionality? See if there is some error somewhere? I just like to get any pointer towards a solution, please. Anyone? Pretty please?

Didn’t help. I still get all spam directly to my moderation queue. Akismet has stopped working… What to do?

Yes, I did. I have just tried turning it off then on again. Let us see what happens…

And the help keeps pouring in! Thanks all!!! ??

Thanks Sadish!

So with
<?php
global $user_ID;
get_currentuserinfo();
if ( $user_ID ) {
wp_theme_switcher('dropdown');
} #endif
?>
I can exclusively have a dropdown with a theme switcher on my template pages. Brilliant. And thanks for hosting the plugin!

Thanks Alan! ??

I’m using Mac, though, but even if I did use Windows, just the unnecessary hassle with having this running on my machine is to me tiring. Especially if I’m not going to use the server / database at all after my work is done. Seems like too much to go through.

I mean, somehow, WordPress knows what theme I am using, because I select it in the admin panel, right? and I can change this with a flip of a switch, right? Now, if I could either use a special link (like stated in my previous post), or perhaps insert a special WP tag like <?php wp_use_theme('themename'); ?> in my test code (lying in a separate folder, away from my main (& ‘public’) web site), my prayers would be heard ??

Or perhaps more correctly, since my test theme would not be the active one, but still be present in the same folder as the other themes:
<?php wp_test_using_content_from_main_db(); ?>
and then surf to the theme directory www.mysite.com/wp-content/themes/theme_name/ and see the result in all its glory… (Do I make myself clear? I’m doubting it.)

I’ve been snooping around in the documentation without finding such tags, though. But can they be made?
