Wordpress 2.6 Upgrade Update

July 17, 2008

I mentioned a day or so ago about the general release of wordpress 2.6 and how I was going to upgrade a little site of ours. Well I did do the upgrade (..you can guess where this is heading!) but I encountered a couple of problems. The first was nothing to do with wordpress but an issue with my host server settings that was causing my automatic backup to fail. So I upgraded to 2.6 manually and had a couple of issues. A couple of very useful plugins I use reported warnings (Joost de Valk has now addressed these). Also the wordpress admin dashboard was incorrectly reporting that I only had 1 active plugin.

I like the way 2.6 lets you activate multiple plugins in one go and also presents them in groups of active and inactive. Other than that though I didn’t get around to checking out the new features. As it was easy to do in this case I’ve reverted back to 2.5.1 for now until the dust settles.

How about you? Have you moved to 2.6 without any issues?
