I installed 1.3.2 today. After the install it placed "Retrieved from " and the link to the same page. I assume this is because it used my old database, but how do i get rid of the "Retreived from" messages at the bottom of all my pages?
sorry if you get this twice, i sent it first through the wrong email address

Make sure you've updated the style sheets, and if necessary clear your browser's cache.

It's not my browser's cache, it appears even on pages that are new that I have created by typeing the name directly into the url. I'm not sure what you mean by updating my style sheets, I'm using the standard skin with the style sheets that came with 1.3.2.

The style sheets are separate files, and therefore separately cached. Loading a new page will not have any affect on the cached style sheet.
This problem is known to be caused by old style sheets from the 1.3 beta versions which don't hide the print footer with the Monobook skin. (The print footer wasn't displayed on those versions because the code to show that footer was itself missing.)
There are two ways this can happen: either the old style sheet is still in the browser cache (or an intermediate cache server), or the file on the server has not been updated.

Please check and make sure that you replaced all files when upgrading. Load up stylesheets/monobook/main.css and confirm that it ends with these lines:
.printfooter { display: none; }

Amazing, my stylesheets were cached. I don't know why, but for some reason I had an aversion to thinking that they could be cached at all. "Cache stylesheets? Oh come on." I'm glad that's been corrected in my strange, illogical mind. :)
Thanks.
