 * When I try and access my wp-admin, I get this:
 * `Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate
   30720 bytes) in /xxxxxx/public_html/pollinationproject.org/shop/wp-admin/includes/
   update.php on line 287`
 * Could this be caused by a plugin or some sort of PHP misconfiguration? Never 
   seen it before.

 * Looks like you might be on a shared server and available memory is fairly tight
   anyway. Have you identified a set of steps that will produce this error every
   time? If so, contact Tech Support with the exact error and the steps to get to
   it, they can take a look at the processes running in your space and see what 
   is eating up all of the memory.
