A few days ago I upgraded the site to the latest Wordpress release. This is not a job I relish, because my site template doesn’t natively work with Wordpress and upgrades in the past have been nothing but a headache for me. On previous releases, I’ve had to roll back to older version to get up and running again. Fortunately this time everything went through OK, and in fact, whilst in amongst it I got a chance to tidy up a lot of annoying little niggles with the CSS.
I have to say that the latest Wordpress is absolutely top drawer. I was previously on 1.5 so to go up to the v2 release you’d expect some fairly substantial changes, but they’ve really pulled their finger out, especially what they’ve done with file uploads. Though I did have to turn off the new rich text editor, not a fan of that. ‘Nuff said though – kudos to Wordpress – unbelievable free software. If you need a blog, check them out.
