Up and running on WordPress 2.7!11 Dec

I wrote a little bit ago on how amazing the new WordPress is, albeit at the time it was still in beta, still it proved itself for me. Well today it is official, and WordPress 2.7 has been released as a final. I took the opportunity to perform the upgrade and everything worked beautifully! For those that are interested, here are the steps I took to get things working right:

  • First backup all of your files, and your database
  • Make sure to backup your current theme, upload, and plugins directory
  • Delete all files from the existing 2.x directory
  • Download WordPress 2.7
  • Configure config.php and upload to the new server along with all WordPress 2.7 files downloaded from the package
  • Copy your theme, upload, and plugin files back to the server in their respective locations
  • Navigate to the update page with the following URL: http://your-website.com/wp-admin/update.php

Once you do this, your website will be up and running and you should have direct access to it with the same login.

So far I am enjoying the new interface. It is deffinitly a step in the right direction and I am glad they have chosen to shorten the gap between a strict blogging interface to that of a CMS interface.

If you have WordPress questions or issues, feel free to send me a message.

Yes, I am now on Facebook09 Dec

After much hesitation, I finally decided to jump on the bandwagon and join Facebook. I guess it was long past due, but I took pride in knowing that I may have been one of the last few who remained unattached to FB for so long. Its like the person who never in their life, received a speeding ticket (my mother), or worse yet, the person who never smoked a cigarette. It’s as if I took pride in knowing I was holding out, not the actual act of having an account. Ohh what a rush!

So after much hesitation, I am officially official with my Facebook. Not a whole lot of activity, but a great way to connect with people, that’s for sure!

If you are on there, look me up!

It has been an incredibly busy past month and a half. I have been meaning to add a few new articles to the lineup however, it’s been nearly impossible given my schedule. For those readers out there, new material will be coming real soon so keep an eye out over the next week or so.
