I have upgraded to WordPress 2.1.2
Its a bit strange… looks the same in many ways but some of the subtle differences are quite significant. For a start the database has been restructured a bit with tables having different names. That should not be a problem, but the template I am using has some little bits of code in it which do SQL queries assuming the old structure so they don’t work.
Maybe I will fix it, probably not. Right now there is a workaround which is 80% OK – it just doesn’t look quite as pretty. If it bugs me too much I might try getting another theme and playing with it.
Also the upgrade seemed to corrupt the table holding the Bad Behavior data so BB wasn’t working at all – and it really showed: I was getting spam comments every few seconds again. I think its working now, although I had to take the fairly drastic step of deleting the table – a bit risky given my almost-zero knowledge of how the database works, but I think its OK now.
If anyone notices any strange behaviour now, can they let me know?
I should really test the comments out as well. Including the plug-in for the formatting buttons
Looks like the subscribe to comments plug-in doesn’t work, so thats gone for now.
I’m not sure if anyone ever used it anyway.
I never did. I wondered why your site appeared to be down for days though.
Wondered where you had gone – welcome back!
Glad you are back – now big sister is watching you again….
