    Hi All
    Updating to 3.5 website (http://taministries.net/)it started to configure then went blank then this came up.
    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare sticky_class() (previously declared in D:\Hosting\5988467\html\wp-includes\post-template.php:584) in D:\Hosting\5988467\html\wp-includes\deprecated.php on line 3192

    Now I can not get back on site, this site was built for me a year ago, all I do is maintain it, an add to it, but I don’t have coding on my computer.
    I have a back up I made after I did the clean if this will help.
    I am in the deep end now.

    Try:

    – resetting the plugins folder by using FTP or whatever file management application your host provides. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    – switching to the default theme by renaming your current theme’s folder in wp-content/themes using FTP or whatever file management application your host provides.

    – re-uploading all files & folders – except the wp-content folder from a fresh download of WordPress. by using FTP or whatever file management application your host provides. (manual upgrade)

    – re-running the upgrade via wp-admin/upgrade.php

    Hi Keesiemeijer
    Sorry I just do not know much about FTP or manual upgrade to fix this problem, I only know how to get into trouble not out of it.

    I will continue to study & hopefully find a solution.

    If you have decent hosting they might be able to help, otherwise, you might want to hire someone to help you.

    Good luck.

    Hi Every one
    we have now, got our website up and running.

    At some point on 11/12/2012 the main config file had been chopped & some of it was missing – !!!!!!!!

    We have now updated the word-press site to the latest version, we under toke this from our log-in at our hosting site as any other way refused to work. Does anyone know of any good plugins that we can use, so this does not happen in the future.

    1. Backup website fully
    2. Spam comptroller
    3. Security.
