Another Upgrade
I’m somewhere near Dade City, and I just got email that Diane’s weblog had been cracked. So I just upgraded WordPress there and figured I might as well upgrade it here.
The upgrade worked without a hitch there. Here, I had a hitch. My customized theme doesn’t play nice with the new WordPress, and my battery is just about dead, so until I get back to somewhere with 110 volt power, it’s just going to be using the default theme.
Picture banner and other features to return later.
Update: Apparently I hadn’t gotten around to copying the theme, which goes a long way to explaining why WordPress wouldn’t work with it. There was a further bit with most of the sidebar disappearing due to the “sideblog” plugin; I’ve removed sideblogging, which I hadn’t been using lately, and it looks like the rest of the theme is doing OK.
Update 2: OK, I didn’t notice that my pre-2.5 widgets didn’t transfer to 2.5. That may have to wait a bit.
If you upgrade the wordpress port on degas, then you can copy the install to you two live wp installations.
I did put WP 2.5 in the “webapps” directory, so it is available wherever we might need it.
