Upgrade to WordPress version 2.8
Since the new WordPress version is relaesed today. The blog still is pretty young. I decided to upgrade to the lastest version reight way. The upgrade was smooth and easier. Here lists the simple steps:
- Just downloaded the new version to server and unzip the package to a folder.
- Then just copy the wp-config.php file from the earlier installation to the new folder.
- Then move the older files under installation folder to somewhere and move the files in the new version to the installation folder.
- In your browser enter the following address “blog domain name/wp-admin” and click upgrade database
- Then you can use your blog in the new version without any problem.
One thing you have to pay attention is you could get blank page if you use customized theme or other third party theme other than the default. If that is the case, you just simply reinstall the theme you used before. It should works fine.
