Upgraded WordPress

In an unusual move for me, I've updated the site to the latest version of WordPress soon after it was available, rather than forgetting and leaving it 5 weeks. As usual, everything went incredibly smoothly, if only all upgrades were this painless (I'm looking at you, Windows).

Hopefully I'll be able to get back to blogging on Planet Ubuntu again shortly, provided I changed my feed correctly! (If I have, you're probably reading this on the planet now)

WordPress Upgrade

I'm pretty sure I do these wrong, but I can't complain, considering I've recently upgraded to 2.8.5 with no issues, and now I've just upgraded to 2.8.6, again with no issues, everything still seems to be intact (though please let me know if it isn't!!).

Thanks again to the WordPress guys!

WordPress 2.8

Normally these upgrades go well, but when you accidentally unzip/untar the new version over the top of your current install, things don't quite go according to plan ;)

Though kudos to the WP Dev's, I modified the wp-config file and set all the options (including a different database table prefix), and then I put all my plugins back in to place, and took the time to upgrade a couple I needed to do. Finally, after a deep breatth, I ran what would normally be the installer, which said "Your database needs updating".

And that was all, so considering my potentially costly foul-up, things actually went very well :) I'm quite impressed!
