Finally, my blogs are on WordPress 2.5. Well, at least this one and my Davao blog. The others will follow soon, and, it won’t take me as much time as I’d feared. Thanks to my friend, I’m able to shift effortlessly to the latest version with the help of a very convenient plugin that automates WP upgrading.
So far, I haven’t run into any major problems with my themes or plugins being incompatible with WP2.5. There were minor stuff, like outmoded WP template tags embedded in the themes that I had to manually update.
I discovered a plugin that wasn’t 100% compatible with the new WP version, Get Recent Comments, which was misbehaving. Good thing it was pointed out that the caching function of this plugin was causing the trouble (its widget, which you see on my sidebar, wouldn’t display the title). So I turned off the cache. Problem solved.
Five more blogs of mine to upgrade, plus a handful of others that I maintain for clients and friends. Piece of cake.
