Upgrading to WP2.0

:: Wednesday, Dec 28th 2005 @ 19:25 :: WordPress ::

I can’t believe I forgot new WP was released on Monday! This lazy bum here is now going to upgrade. Keep yer fingers crossed.

@19:45
Whoa… no glitches yet and all the plugins seem to work. Please let me know if you bump into something odd (technology-wise, not content-wise :) )

Don’t mind the odd shaped intro box up there (appears by clicking on Intro). I have a thing going on there :P Now I gotta go watch Stephen King’s Kingdom Hospital

    Yipee.. I don’t see any glitches ‘yet’ so it’s all good :laugh:!
    Good luck fixing the ‘intro’ box =] and enjoy the movie :cool:!

    Maybe I’m gonna try it now, since you’re saying no problems. I’ll go look, ponder, eat lunch, go back to the page, ponder, decide.

    I’m scared.

    I notice there are some odd glitches but they might just be because of my nutty installation. For instance, the number of comments doesn’t change (like now, there was 2 comments and it just says ‘No commens’ BUT shows the image for new comments.

    Vera, I wasn’t actually having trouble with the Intro box, I was sneaking another box beside it (you just didn’t see it, I did :P). But after checking the layout on 800×600 I decided to get rid of the Intro box altogether. So, now there’s only the new feature: latest post from Amadeus’s blog :)

    Jafer, maybe you should wait a while. Let them squeeze out a 2.0.0.0.0.0.0.1 or something :) Have you tried playing with a WP installation on local computer? It’s quite handy (having a local installation I mean).

    I haven’t played with anything on a local computer - I don’t have php installed on mine.

    And now that you say that, and after reading some of the support questions….. I think I’ll wait :)

    Jafer, all you need is XAMPP and yer laughin’ :) It installs an Apache server (at least one sort of server), MySQL and PHP interpreter (or whatever). You only need to create a database, put the user information for wp-config.php, put all files in XAMPP folder and run install. Just like you do in your web domain. XAMPP includes phpMyAdmin so it’s all very familiar (I’d think).

    And now that you say that, and after reading some of the support questions….. I think I’ll wait

    I could’ve waited too I guess, but I’m a sucker for new gadgets, and new WP versions. I don’t really care if something goes bonkers — it doesn’t scare me the least, thanks to all kinds of coding over the years and lots of things going bonkers a lot of the time. And I’m determined to get that article finished soon so I had to try this out.

    The comment glitch turned out to be a Spam Karma incompatibility. It’s fixed with a small addition to the SK plugins. Great stuff. Now I’ll get to test if it really works. Other than the comment stuff, I don’t think I’ve stumbled across other bugs.
