 * Following an auto-upgrade to 3.1, I’m having a couple of issues!
 * 1) I cannot get drop downs in the dashboard to expand. The cursor changes indicating
   they area is active but I click the drop down and nothing happens, nada. This
   goes for the left-hand menu, as well as seperate widget areas etc. (Apologies
   for the noobish descriptions, I have no idea what the ‘correct’ names for these
   areas are!) I also can’t drag and drop widgets – there is another older post 
   about this, but no answer.
 * 2) Lightbox doesn’t work – I have it set currently that all images on my site(
   [http://www.19squadron.org.nz/wordpress](http://www.19squadron.org.nz/wordpress))
   should open in a lightbox, but currently, no dice. The faded background loads,
   but no image pops up.
 * I have tried Chrome & Firefox, same deal.
 * (Sincerely sorry if there is another post relating to this. I did search, but
   was swamped by permalink issue posts! Thankfully I’m not having this problem 
   at the moment)
 * Help?
 * Cheers Jeff

 * Have you tried:
    – deactivating **all** plugins to see if this resolves the problem?
   If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic
   plugin(s). – switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?–
   re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a **fresh** download of
   WordPress by using [FTP](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients) or whatever 
   file management application your host provides.

 * Appears to have been a jquery issue with my theme.
 * Updated a line of code (provided very kindly by the theme creator) and everything
   is working fine again.
 * Cheers – Jeff
