    is_admin is a default WordPress function – so it’s possible you may need to download WordPress again and overwrite the files.

    If this is a new install, simply re-upload a fresh copy of WordPress 3.0.4.

    i check it, and i found the source code of the function:
    in /wp-admin/load-scripts.php -> line 68:

    function is_admin() {return true;}'
in  /wp-admin/load-styles.php -> line 68:
<code>function is_admin() {return true;}</code>
and in  /wp-includes/load.php -> line 572:

    function is_admin() {
    if ( defined( ‘WP_ADMIN’ ) )
    return WP_ADMIN;
    return false;
    }`
    so!! it look strange to me that the function is UNDEFINED 🙁

    If it’s not defined on your install, then something’s wrong. Seriously. Redownload the whole wordpress install and copy it to your server. Something did not get uploaded correctly the first time.
