Last week, I finally got around to updating WordPress. While the link that had been showing on the top of my screen for the last several months indicated I could automatically update, it turned out this wasn’t the case. Last week was the first time I had the opportunity to take the time to manually update.

The process took me several tries and many errors before I finally had the latest version of WordPress up and running. I judged this by the fact that my home page appeared, instead of saying “server not found.” Success!

Except, I went online to check my portfolio today, and I find that the link takes me to a 404 Error page. Same with every other link on my site. The only page that worked was the domain.

After spending an hour trying everything I could think of to fix the problem (short of reverting to the old WordPress), and then searching the internet for others who have solved the problem in the past, I got no closer to the solution — but I found that reverting to a different theme did fix the issue. Until I can find a real solution to the problem, this theme will have to suffice.
