Upgraded to Wordpress 2.5

Wordpress 2.5 is finally officially out. And I took the opportunity to upgrade mine to this latest version. There were a few things which I was afraid which might not be compatible and clash with some of my plugins such as the Flash Media plugin. But after installing, everything seems to be in fine working order.

I’m still trying to get used to the new admin interface which looks a lot neater now. The admin panel has a lot of changes. Many things such as media upload has now been shifted and posting new blog post seems to be easier now.

As for the readers, I guess everything else is the same. :)

Update:
Okay, there seems to be some problems with some users who have upgraded to WordPress 2.5. They are reporting that they are unable to upload images to their blog when using Firefox. There’s a solution. Go to your wordpress directory and open up the .htaccess file for editing. Add the following lines into the file.

<IfModule mod_security.c>
<Files async-upload.php>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</Files>
</IfModule>

Now it should work… Like mine here. :D

    yung: First, you have to view hidden files as well. Then, .htaccess is usually on the same directory as your index.php file. Finally, if you don’t have the .htaccess file, you can create one yourself. :)
    Hope that helps.

    erm… You might also need to set your /wp-content to 775.
