 * I’m having a huge problem with my WordPress installation. Shortly after upgrading
   to 3.1.1, I started to see errors like this all over the place.
 * “Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated XXXXXXXX) (tried to allocate XXXXXX bytes)
   in XXXX.php on line XXX”
 * I can’t even access some pages of my dashboard because of this error, and basic
   functions, like adding posts and pages, don’t work.
 * I’ve contacted my host, and they’ve done everything from edit my wp-config file
   to increasing my PHP memory limit to 128M. I’ve tried a plugin, that didn’t work.
 * Any advice?

 * Try:
    – switching to the Twenty Ten theme by renaming your current theme’s folder
   in wp-content/themes using [FTP](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients) or whatever
   file management application your host provides.
 * – [resetting the plugins folder](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F)
   by FTP or phpMyAdmin.

 * I’m sorry but this is beginning to sound like a server issue.
