WordPress 2.8.2 to 2.8.4 Upgrade

Tuesday, August 18th, 2009

I’ve just upgraded the WordPress installation that runs this site to from version 2.8.2 to 2.8.4.

I use the automatic upgrade feature from the admin section and for this upgrade it took about 3 minutes to upgrade using an average broadband connection.

Upgrading from WordPress 2.65 to 2.7

Sunday, December 14th, 2008

After the recent release of WordPress 2.7, the next major release of the WordPress publishing system, I just found time to upgrade this site’s blog to 2.7.

After reading the WordPress support articles, compatibility lists and support forums, I thought the process would have taken a few hours considering the number of WordPress plug-ins that I use on this site’s blog.

But it took me about an hour (with a few cups of tea in between), and now I will tell you about my experience of the upgrade progress and how I think you should approach the upgrade.
