The tabs Visual and HTML are present with a link for Visual, but nothing happens when I click on it! I tried i Safari, IE and Firefox – no visual style is available. I even tried creating a new user and did not help either. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [Lightbox works partly](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lightbox-works-partly/) * Thread Starter [sofsoldier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sofsoldier/) * (@sofsoldier) * [19 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lightbox-works-partly/#post-511107) * It didn’t matter which version.

I have no idea how one can delete this file if you have a web host. * I do agree with you that I wish I had not upgraded, but upgrading is a necessary evil when it comes to securing a blog. I figured on just upgrading it now and dealing with the issues as the 2.1.x updates should be painless. * I should make it clear that I did not try the above steps without deleting the wp_link2cat.frm file. I decided on deleting it since it was the file that caused me grief. * Also, the links do show in the side bar even with the php get_links_list() function in place – some have mentioned a change to this. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [MySQL error after upgrade to 2.1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mysql-error-after-upgrade-to-21/) * [sofsoldier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sofsoldier/) * (@sofsoldier) * [19 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mysql-error-after-upgrade-to-21/#post-509457) * Please see: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/102313?replies=1#post-504945](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/102313?replies=1#post-504945) * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [wp 2.1 works with ie7, but not with ff2.0.1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-21-works-with-ie7-but-not-with-ff201/) * [sofsoldier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sofsoldier/) * (@sofsoldier) * [19 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-21-works-with-ie7-but-not-with-ff201/#post-509982) * This could be your theme. When I upgraded from 2.0.7 to 2.1, everything worked fine in IE. When I viewed my blog from Firefox, I saw text only. I tried a different theme and it worked fine. * If you are not using the default theme, try that and see if it fixes your problems. * Now I just need to fix my blogroll problem… * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Merging of (blogroll) Links and Categories in 2.1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/merging-of-blogroll-links-and-categories-in-21/) * [sofsoldier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sofsoldier/) * (@sofsoldier) * [19 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/merging-of-blogroll-links-and-categories-in-21/#post-509445) * Now I understand why this is happening with the Blogrole, and I understand that I must change the wp_list_bookmarks() functions within the theme files, but how does this fix adding new links? * As it stands, I cannot add a new link without getting an error: * SELECT category_id FROM wp_link2cat WHERE link_id = 3 ORDER BY category_id * and I cannot assign a category to the link. * When I delete the link I just created, I get this error: * WordPress database error: [Got error 1 from storage engine] SELECT category_id FROM wp_link2cat WHERE link_id = 4 ORDER BY category_id * WordPress database error: [Got error 1 from storage engine] DELETE FROM wp_link2cat WHERE link_id = ‘4’ * The article provided does not give any information about this. Anyone have any ideas? * I can add a new post to the blog, and I notice that within the categories are the added categories of my links, with the title above the added categories as“ links.” This makes sense due to the merge. I can even add the new categories to my post. * What is also interesting is that when I try to delete a category under Manage > Categories, I get this error: * WordPress database error: [Got error 1 from storage engine] SELECT link_id FROM wp_link2cat WHERE category_id=’22’ * So it seems the Blogrole and post categories are affected by this merging. The question is how do we fix it? * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [MySQL error after upgrade to 2.1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mysql-error-after-upgrade-to-21/) * [sofsoldier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sofsoldier/) * (@sofsoldier) * [19 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mysql-error-after-upgrade-to-21/#post-509331) * I have a similar problem – received link errors when I upgraded from 2.07 to 2.1. My Link category is no longer available and I cannot add any links to the blog (that is, its in the blog roll but not on the site), when I do I get an error: * WordPress database error: [Got error 1 from storage engine] SELECT category_id FROM wp_link2cat WHERE link_id = 1 ORDER BY category_id * When I edit the bookmark I just added, there is an error listed in the Category box: * WordPress database error: [Got error 1 from storage engine] SELECT category_id FROM wp_categories, wp_link2cat WHERE wp_link2cat.category_id = cat_ID AND wp_link2cat. link_id = ‘1’ * WordPress database error: [Got error 1 from storage engine] SELECT category_id FROM wp_categories, wp_link2cat WHERE wp_link2cat.category_id = cat_ID AND wp_link2cat. link_id = ‘1’ * WordPress database error: [Got error 1 from storage engine] SELECT category_id FROM wp_categories, wp_link2cat WHERE wp_link2cat.category_id = cat_ID AND wp_link2cat. link_id = ‘1’ * WordPress database error: [Got error 1 from storage engine] SELECT category_id FROM wp_categories, wp_link2cat WHERE wp_link2cat.category_id = cat_ID AND wp_link2cat. link_id = ‘1’ * WordPress database error: [Got error 1 from storage engine] SELECT category_id FROM wp_categories, wp_link2cat WHERE wp_link2cat.category_id = cat_ID AND wp_link2cat. link_id = ‘1’ * WordPress database error: [Got error 1 from storage engine] SELECT category_id FROM wp_categories, wp_link2cat WHERE wp_link2cat.category_id = cat_ID AND wp_link2cat. link_id = ‘1’ * WordPress database error: [Got error 1 from storage engine] SELECT category_id FROM wp_categories, wp_link2cat WHERE wp_link2cat.category_id = cat_ID AND wp_link2cat. link_id = ‘1’ * Would deleting my link categories fix this problem? And if so, how do I do that exactly? I am running WP version 2.1, PHP 5.2 and MySQL 4.1.22. I have no idea how to use a phpMyAdmin type program but this is on my own server so I have access to the MySQL command prompt. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Editing and writing a post – does not refresh](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/editing-and-writing-a-post-does-not-refresh/) * Thread Starter [sofsoldier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sofsoldier/) * (@sofsoldier) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/editing-and-writing-a-post-does-not-refresh/#post-422854) * I think I found a solution – I had a long list of ping services configured to receive any changes to the blog. I removed many of these and this fixed the problem. Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total)
