Frustrated

frickin lovely. (update, by the way)

there is no "visual editor" - it says visual, but it's html. If I click on HTML, the editor box closes. And it STINKING DOESN'T COME BACK.

If I follow the upgrade directions, it screws my blog (I'd love to use stronger language...here in my office, I am.)

I don't even know if THIS will work

I'm just going to put ALL of the files back and see what happens then

~~~

Ok...I backed up MzEllen using WinSCP to my desktop.  Then I updated wordpress.  It screwed my website.  REALLY BAD.

So I backgraded to the old version, got my website back.

Downloaded PHPmyadmin for wordpress (it's a plugin), installed it and tried to run it.

I don't know where the backup goes. Ok...got the backup sql file on my desktop.

What happens if the upgrade loses my posts?  Can I just use the same backup that I grabbed this morning and put the old version of wordpress up?  Or just replace the .sql (which does not have the same name as the one in the WinSCP window.

I think I read that the new wordpress version has automatic backups and upgrades.  That would be a good thing.

SCREW IT.  I'm leaving it for now.
