 * I have this weird database error that appears on the blogs home page. Don’t know
   how to get it off, since my site is not affected, its just a very ugly eye sore.
 * This is what it says:
 * ‘
 * WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual
   that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near‘
   GROUP BY year(post_date), month(post_date), dayofmonth(post_date)’ at line 1]
   
   SELECT DISTINCT post_date FROM GROUP BY year(post_date), month(post_date), dayofmonth(
   post_date)’
 * [
    ^ Is the link to the blog so you can see what i mean

 * Probably some weird stuff going on with MySql. Whenever this happens for me it’s
   usually after a plugin install/config/change. So I start to undue what I did 
   recently. Worth a shot.
