Hi,

This morning I tried to update the welcome message setting on my site and when I submitted the changes, the message said "successful" but when I went to my main page, the welcome message was entirely gone. The admin panel won't apply any changes to the welcome message, despite the fact that every time I try it says the action was successful. I also tried to turn off the stats block but that didn't work either.

The site is here:

And any help would be greatly appreciated.

ETA: Seems like changes made in the admin panel generally aren't sticking. I upgraded from 3.02 to 3.1.1 yesterday...could that have something to do with it?

People have reported similar problems with the footer, so I'm guessing it's a bug.

I had the same problem as you when I upgraded to 3.11 yesterday.  After almost pulling my hair out, I typed in a new welcome message, and made sure that Use tinyMCE was unchecked and then hit the submit button.  For some strange reason it worked.

PS, later I did go back into settings to the welcome message and checked the Use TinyMCE box and clicked the submit button.  Everything is fine now.

I hope it works for you as well.

My welcome message setting doesn't have the Use TinyMCE options. I tried to turn off TinyMCE in the Site Settings but it has no effect. Woe!

Thanks for your suggestion, though. I'll keep fiddling with it and hopefully something will stick.

I just uploaded the new 3.1 zip file to my server and it fixed the problem. Thank you so much.
