We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming…. (What? I do SO have regular programming.) to bring you…. WordPress 2.8. The biggest upgrade in this version is the widget area and more cool goodies for our sidebars!! Dont forget to check out the warnings in the Save the Sidebars article series!! I haven`t done my research on the new features yet but when I do, I`ll be sure to update the blog with the news!
And YES – please DO upgrade your WordPress to 2.8 with the CLICK of a button! How cool is that? If you haven`t yet upgraded to 2.7 then you won`t be able to do the automatic upgrade, yet. For $20 we`ll put you on WordPress 2.8 and then you`ll never have to pay for an upgrade again!
The deets:
- Go to your `settings`panel and find `WP DB Backup`and be sure that you have the latest backup on your computer, or emailed to you.
- Go to your plugins panel and select all plugins
- From `Bulk Actions`deactivate all.
- Click on the `Please Update Now`in the admin bar in your admin panels.
- That`s it!!
Cheers my friends,

Oh Snap! I didn’t see your article soon enough!!! I upgraded today using the automatic upgrader, and I CAN”T login to anything WP. Not even the forums so I can ask a question!!!
I changed the name of the plugin folder, so it would be useless, nothing. I used php MyAdmin and changed my password, nothing.
HELP!!!!
ok I think I am convinced going to go for the upgrade ! Agh little scared
