WordPress 3.0 Offers Easier Upgrades
WordPress has finally made it easy to upgrade with the latest version, WordPress 3.0.
I used to be afraid to tackle the confusing array of upgrade configuration options, but now all of my WordPress 2.9 installations offer an upgrade link at the top of the admin panel. I’m done with only a couple of clicks!
The Admin Panel doesn’t look much different in WordPress 3.0, which won’t confuse current users with a totally new interface.
The most convenient and time-saving feature about WordPress3.0 is Bulk Updates, so you can upgrade 15 plugins at once with a single click
The new default theme is Twenty Ten, which includes a cool new menu system. Of course, the Theme you’re currently using has to support these new features to be usable. But it’s great not having to spend an hour upgrading to a new version of my favorite CMS.
It’s recommended to back up your files first before an upgrade; Click open Tools menu, click Export. The resulting XML file contains all your posts, pages, comments, custom fields, categories, and tags. It can be imported back into your blog in case of a disaster.
