Upgrade to WordPress 2.5

I have just upgraded to WP2.5 and bar a few minor mishaps

Maintanence Mode

I used Maintenance Mode in order to have a temporary splash page, this worked fine until all the new files were copied over and then I was unable to gain access to wp admin to upgrade. I renamed the MM plugin, ran the upgrade and all was then aok.

NexGen Gallery

NexGen Gallery required an upgrade which was a nice and simple one click operation as well as a number of other plugins all of which went well. I re-implemented the mods I made in NexGen and another hurdle was jumped.

Plugins

Finally a few of the plugins I had been using would no longer work e.g. advanced-admin-menus

.. apart from that the upgrade was seemless ..

Check back soon for my thoughts on WP2.5 but your comments are also more than welcome

    You’ll want this new admin dropdown menu plugin anyway – it’s much nicer/sleeker.
