WordPress 3.0 is here!

Listen to article

This is one of the major updates to the blogging software, WordPress 3.0 is now available and ready for deployment.

You should be able to see the alert in your WP Dashboards. I’ve made the upgrade on my smaller blogs earlier just to see how it works and so far it’s been good. Will do the update on this blog over the week-end, just to make sure the plugins don’t break.

Here’s a quick overview of the changes made to WP 3.0, in video. If you have a blog running on WordPress and have made the jump to 3.0, do let us know how it goes or if you encounter any problems. So far, it’s been a really quick and easy process for me.

experienced several bugs while updating/installing plugins.

Protip to everyone updating… be sure to check if the plugin you’re trying to update is working with 3.0.

Read in WP Blog regarding some users wiping their own blog after the update. This is what I am afraid of..that is why you MUST backup your data first…

Here are some incompatible plugins I found:

– bsuite
– wp-slimstat
– podcasting thingie (I forgot the exact name, found it via Google search)

Had to manually rename my plugins folder and reinstall my plugins one by one until I found the culprit.

I’m afraid to upgrade. I have to check first the compatibility of all my plug-ins. If all my plug-ins is compatible already, thats the time for upgrade.
