WordPress 2.5.1

Posted by Lester Chan at 16:00 in Site, WordPress

WordPress 2.5.1 has been released. It includes a number of bug fixes, performance enhancements, and one very important security fix.

If you are interested in only the security fixes, just replaced the following files.

  1. /wp-includes/pluggable.php
  2. /wp-admin/includes/media.php
  3. /wp-admin/media.php

There are more than 70 bugs and performance fixes in 2.5.1, here is an outline of it:

  • Performance improvements for the Dashboard, Write Post, and Edit Comments pages.
  • Better performance for those who have many categories
  • Media Uploader fixes
  • An upgrade to TinyMCE 3.0.7
  • Widget Administration fixes
  • Various usability improvements
  • Layout fixes for IE

DO NOT Use Automatic Plugin Upgrade

Posted by Lester Chan at 23:40 in Plugins

I have received several feedback that the Automatic Plugin Upgrade feature in WordPress is causing problem with my plugins.

I want to say that ALL my plugins currently will not work with the Automatic Plugin Upgrade feature because there is a problem with the path. It is a little difficult for me to explain it here.

The new version of my plugins that I am going to release on 1st June 2008 will address this issue. In another words, if are using 1.30 or 2.30 beta of my plugins, the problem has been solved.

So in the mean time, DO NOT use the Automatic Plugin Upgrade feature for my plugin.
