The wordpress upgrade I wanted to complete is now finished. Now I just have to iron out all the issues created from making such a huge jump in wordpress versions. Bare with me, it will take a couple of days weeks.

Outstanding Issues
* Comments Don’t Appear New On Top
* Gallery Is Down
* Contact Form Is Down
* A Few Of Cosmetic Issues
* Work On Admin Bar

Please notify me in the comments as you locate any issues. Things may go haywire as I am messing with things and I may not realize I screwed something up.



Previous Version : 2.3.3
New Version : 2.8.4

I contracted Blog Installation Service to do the upgrade. Process took about 3 hours with little downtime to the user. Upgrade was successful. Only major issues after upgrade were installing and configuring a new theme as the old one was no longer compatible and finding a gallery update which hasn’t happened yet.

This was the upgrade I was scared of but it was easy and I am happy it is over. Now how is 2.8.4? Terrible. I wish I had stayed where I was. I hate the dashboard and honestly I think the software is slower.

    @Lee

    My comment was in response to Slim’s “crap testing” comments, which are now gone. :dizzy:

    Well, “I” thought it was funny Rachel. :cheerful:

    So, you’re an expert crap tester. That stinks. :lol: :lol:

  7. DJSlimNo Gravatar says:

    should be fixed now. new comments weren’t showing on page one.

    Did you read what I wrote in the shoutbox?

  9. ABBNo Gravatar says:

    BUT, my comment will only show up if I refresh the page. That’s kind of a pain.

    I like the new edit button, Slim. I just tested it out on your comment by making you a crap expert. Hey, most new parents become one within a year, right?

  11. DJSlimNo Gravatar says:

    i love testing crap – I’m an expert at it.

  12. DJSlimNo Gravatar says:

    testing something one more time

    It’s all good here Slim. I really like the new layout better, it’s much easier on the eyes.

    @ Teri:

    I see that too. It does.
