what I'm grooving to:
Today, WordPress 2.5 has been officially released. This is a pretty sizeable upgrade with a bunch of new features to go along with its new look.
I have been working with the Development versions for awhile now and I have actually even been using them in some small cases, for client work. These have been mostly standard installs with nothing special about them.
However, I am about to upgrade this website to version 2.5 and since this site is not like most of my sites, there may be some issues involved. This site is a very customized version of WordPress with lots of custom plugins and code. Some of which I believe is now duplicate with some of the features offered in the latest WordPress. Hopefully I’ll be able to get some of the functionality I’ve hacked into this install natively with the default WordPress install but we’ll see.
At any rate, please excuse any mess you see here in the near future as I’ll be re-working things a bit, I’m sure. If you don’t spot anything out of whack, then I’ve done a good job at hiding it!
UPDATE:
I’ve upgraded and everything is swell or at least it seems to be. If you spot anything out of whack, please let me know. Thanks!

Nice, looks like everything went pretty smoothly.

Have you had any plugin issues? I’ve had issues with some plugins that use mod_rewrite.

Hey Mike,
No, not really had very many problems actually.
Not sure why you’re having trouble with mod_rewrite - although, I don’t have much that uses that actually.
The database structure has remained untouched in 2.5, so most plugins should come through fine.
I’ve got my system locked down as such that things like mod_rewrite on my .htaccess file doesn’t work, and I need to manually update it - which is fine by me - just a quick copy/paste for that.
