I’ve succesfully upgraded the database, but in the process reverted to the default theme. Unfortunately, haven’t been able to get rid of the memory errors in the admin panel

However, I’m pretty sure it has something to do with your hosts’ webserver configuration. I have unzipped wordpress on my local server here, used your configuration file to connect to your database and everything worked A-OK.

By using a phpinfo() file I found out that your webhost does not allow setting memory_limit through php code or .htaccess file. Unfortunately, I don’t know enough about webserver configuration (and do not have access to it at your host) to solve it. I would suggest contacting your host for support. Specifically, requesting a higher memory limit if possible. (hopefully they aren’t the spiteful kind of hosts).

-> Jonas:
That’s EXACTLY how it happened

-> Casper:
If you add me on MSN (ask Jonas for it or leave a comment on eer.cc with your address) I could help troubleshooting, unfortunately I’m not a WP user, but I can read/write php and sql so it must be fixable

-> Casper:
I’m so stupid, I misread the whole error, it can’t find the file “wp-admin/includes/admin.php”, check that one instead of the upgrade one.

-> Jonas:
Yeah, I must have been seeing things. Captcha works.

Btw, Jonas, your captcha always says the same word, which might not be what you want.

Also, I heard yesterday that some audio captcha’s have been cracked, smart thinking by them hackers
