Lately, one of my blogs has been badgered by this error message “Error establishing a database connection.” Experience tells me that each time I get an errors regarding my blog platform, the WordPress forum is the way to go. However, this time, WordPress forums served all useless. I have read responses from users to be demeaning. While I admire the free help being offered by these “wordpress experts”, they must also exercise full consideration and understanding, especially for the new users who know nothing and still learning about the blogging platform. Others help by pointing you to other forums and refer you to so many links that you get lost in the process.
In my desire to really solve the problem, after clicking tens of links, I finally stumbled upon an easy step-by-step guide to fixing it. Thanks to whoever made this video guide.
