Got round to doing the 2.8.5 update to wordpress last week and what do you know within days there’s a new update.
At least this time i’ve implemented it straight away.
Can’t remember if i’ve said before, but the automated updater within wordpress makes this an absolute doddle to do.
Much easier than when you had to download the files, delete the whole blog and upload it back again.
This method is done in 5 minutes and even walks you through a backup of the sql database.

As aleksandr might say “simples”:

It’s been a few months since i last updated anything
Saw a few rogue users signing up – hope this deters them – and upgraded to the latest version of wordpress
I must say it’s so much easier than it used to be – the plugins do it all for you without a hitch

As usual i’m being slapdash with upgrading my blog’s software
But hopefully from now on you won’t see these posts because i’ve installed new plugin at the same time as doing the update which is called WordPress automatic upgrade. With this plugin whenever there’s an upgrade it will do the backup and installation through the wordpress admin pane for me without having to download files, backup and ftp myself which should keep me up to date.

Anyways, am currently with the latest release, haven’t seen anything too radically different other than it’s fixed a bug i had in the admin pane to do with plugins. But do drop me an email if you spot anything.

As usual I’ve been slack with upgrading my blog’s software, and it’s only been a few spammers signing up that has prompted me to upgrade things. And again, I’ve refreshed the ip2nation database & plugin to cater for any unusual countries or ip addresses. Things seem to be working, but as usual if you spot anything odd drop me a line and i can do some investigation.

The main reason for my post though is I’ve just installed an autotagger (I haven’t been tagging my posts in the past) and want to see whether it works.

With a bit of luck if I drop some keywords in it should add the relevant tags
