Have you tried:
– deactivating ALL plugins temporarily to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate them individually (one-by-one) to find the problematic plugin(s). If you can’t get into your admin dashboard, try deactivating via FTP or SFTP or whatever file management application your host provides. If applicable, also remember to deactivate any plugins in the mu-plugins folder. The easiest way is to rename that folder to mu-plugins-old.
– To rule out any theme-specific issue, try switching to the unedited default, core-bundled Theme (such as Twenty Twelve or Twenty Thirteen) for a moment using the WP dashboard. If you don’t have access to your admin area, you can switch to the default theme by renaming your current theme’s folder in wp-content/themes and adding “-old” to the end of the folder name using via FTP or SFTP or whatever file management application your host provides. Alternately, you can remove other themes except the default theme. That will force your site to use it.
– resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems (because the hooks remain unless plugins completely removed or some plugins stick around in cached files. So by renaming the folder, you break them and force them inactive).
– If the above troubleshooting steps fail to resolve the issue, try manually re-uploading all files and folders EXCEPT the wp-config.php file and the /wp-content/ directory from a fresh download of WordPress. Make sure that you delete the old copies of files & folder before uploading the new ones. Read the Manual Update directions first!
– Always backup everything (including your database) before doing any actions, just in case.
– deactivating ALL plugins temporarily: done–>logout wp admin ftp and renamed to plugin.old, login on wp and logout then renamed to plugin. same issue.
-To rule out any theme-specific issue: I run an old theme but only text. I tried the default themes, same issue but I don’t see how it could affect the admin panel display I have.
– resetting the plugins folder: that would be my last last option.
-manually re-uploading all files: I already did already always have the issue: can’t see/edit any post from the admin panel (but can see the blog and the posts)
Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_pending_comments_num() in /myhost/www/mysite/blog/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-posts-list-table.php on line 330
Backup was the first thing I did.
Thank you for trying to help, appreciate that!

@wcruiser – please start your own thread – and read this first:

Using an outdated version of WP is a major security risk – not recommended.
I am building a new site for a client http://www.oceanwestprojects.com.au
I had most of the site done until I tried a post. I can add new posts although I can not view them once they are made. They are also not shown on the site. I went to change the theme to see if this was the problem but the upload feature would not work anymore. I checked my other sites and they were all working fine on earlier versions of wordpress. I also tried uninstalling 3.7.1 and I cant work on other versions either. I cant install a theme or edit posts. I have worked for 7 hours on the website and still havn`t started. Need urgent assistance.
@damian1975 – if you need assistance, you need to start your own thread – as I posted right above yours.
BTW, if your site is on Crazy Domains, it’s a widespread problem with their servers – see:

Thank you. I have called them and they are working on it
