Another update has been applied with no problems. Got to hand it to the WordPress gang … they make it very easy to stay secure! Keep on blogging …

A couple of spare moments meant I could download the latest WordPress 2.0.1 version and upgrade.

After a complete site link check I found I had feed problems due to my permalink structure, as well as one or two other annoyances – like stale links throughout the blog. All are now rectified and with any luck there won’t be any more upgrades for a bit.

Now that I have completely developed my own theme, upgrading is much easier – from the date modified attribute on the new theme files I can tell which of my theme files to update also.

After several hours of hair-tearing, WordPress 2.0 is now installed with a new Siblog theme … a major overhaul with much CSS tweaking, which has tidied up the layout. I’ve introduced a permalink structure via .htaccess which may improve search engine visibility.

All seems to be running satisfactorily thus far though doubtless the tweaks will continue for a while.

Download the latest WordPress 2.0 here.

I visited the WordPress site and grabbed the latest update. Installed 1.51 with no issues at all in about 2 minutes flat. Next time I change the look of the Sibagraphics site, I’ll develop my own blog theme. Using themes makes updating even less hassle.
