So as I’m sure a great many of you are all aware of, WordPress 3.0 has been released, fixing a number of new bugs, bringing some new features…and probably bringing new bugs (it’s to be expected, let’s be honest), though I’m sure that won’t get advertised!
As I upgraded, I decided to change my theme. I quite like the new theme, it makes a change to have a bit of colour on my blog, which I quite like, though I do still have the old theme kicking around on the server, should I decide to change my mind. Another change, is the VPS on which this blog is hosted, which is now hosted by Fivebean. So far, no real issues, the minor issue I initially had was dealt with promptly and explained thoroughly, I’d definitely recommend giving Fivebean a look if you’re in the market for a VPS
I do have one small issue currently, which I’m not sure whether it is being caused by WordPress, PHP, Apache, or the VPS setup on Fivebean’s part, whereby directly after a reboot the RAM usage sits at around 300MB, and refreshing the WP dashboard causes usage to jump upwards by around 200MB. Now I know WordPress likes its RAM, but not that much, it certainly wasn’t an issue on the old VPS. Anyway – more news on that as it comes.

New Home!
As I posted earlier today (sorry for any Planet spam!), I planned on moving my Planet Ubuntu feed over to blog.joeb454.com later in the week.
I changed my mind and did it about an hour after posting that last post. Hopefully I remembered to use the correct feed type for WordPress, else I’ll have to edit it again!
From what I’ve seen though, the site seems to be holding up pretty well, It’s not using gross amounts of RAM just yet, but I’ll be keeping an eye on it
The only real issue I’ve run into is that it doesn’t seem to want to email me when a comment is held for moderation, or when a comment is left at all.
I’m not sure why it doesn’t, because it sends out emails for registration. I’ll have to wait and see how that one goes
