Thanks for the link, Reaper-X.

@Joneh: I don’t think WP2.1 will slow down your blog. In fact, your blog should run faster with its optimized code. Are you still having slow WP blog?

just wanna inform that i use the manual backup.. i ftp everything to my harddisk. and then use phpAdmin to backup my Sql. then only i clicked the Upgrade to 2.1 in the fantastico. it works!!! so quick… but later on i realized my blog displaying slowly then before. or is it just coincidence with my slow streamyx connection>>>???

It wasn’t so bad! The upgrade process was stimulating enough that I wrote an “Upgrade Tips” post with my process…. if anyone wants to read it, the permalink is http://foxhavenjournal.com/2007/01/25/upgrade-tips-for-wordpress-21-ella/
I wouldn’t want to do it very often however… I like the “Easy Updating of WordPress” idea too. For a non-coder like me, I guess this is as easy at it gets for now. And LcF is right- fantastico upgrade was not available yet… but I think I learned more from the process on this particular blog.

fantastico already updated to latest wordpress version? Sometimes we still need to do manual upgrade for wordpress when fantastico does not support new version upgrade.

my 1st comment…. what should the best way to upgrade to the latest WP? Fullbackup? this at least ensure your already running blog is still running if any fault happened. or just partial backup? what software to use? thanks for any reply. Im newbie so do not shoot me. or kill me(have to say this..nanti salah interpret lagi).

as Mossie`Ol Chin said..WordPress announce that 2.0.6 will be the last release of 2.0.x and then after 10 days they release a version for including some bug fixes and then announce that the 2.1 version will be release by the end of the month..and here we go

aquazero – you can see here a list of the plugins supported with 2.1

WP 2.2 is still a long way to go. Might wait for WP 2.1.1 or 2.1.2 for some bug fixes.

Anybody who upgraded to 2.1 has any plugin issues?

will the plugins for 2.0.x work for 2.1???

“Set a WordPress Page as the front page of your blog, simulate a CMS site.”

That for me is the best thing about 2.1

I think i’ll wait till later before upgrading, maybe around 2.1.2

you can’t “DUH!” it man because it’s already well known that wordpress 2.1 will follow very closely when 2.07 was announced. 2.07 was released because of the issues with 2.06…

anyway, the Visual Rich Text editor is still messy to use. hahaha!
