WordPress 2.5 Upgrade a Breeze

Wow. That was easy. One-click upgrade at DreamHost worked like a charm.

I’m a fan of version 2.5. The dashboard is more intuitive and easier on the eyes, and the one-click update function for plug-ins is going to save me a lot of time and aggravation.

So, I changed my template, too. Isn’t this cheerful and spring-like?

I’ve moved my sidebar texts into text widgets, so I might play a bit with other templates as well, since it won’t be the laborious task that it used to be.

Only a few little problems to figure out:

1. The included gravitar support isn’t working. I’ve checked the little box, but no-go.
2. For some reason, the Recent Post list is doubling up.
3. MyTwitter plug-in is giving me a warning – although it’s working. Hmm.

I like the layout but it displays funny for me here at work! I’m going to have to devote some time to my blog soon. I want to change things around too.

I “own” my apparatus, which means that the upgrade wasn’t exactly a one-click affair-but it certainly went well.

I’m kind of enamored of my theme right now though. I may tweak it in honor of the upcoming election season, of course
