If you have not upgraded your Wordpress blog yet, you’ll definitely get a big big surprise at the new backend look and feel of Wordpress 2.5.

Having the thought that I should be upgrading my blog today, I downloaded the latest Wordpress package and upgraded it in just a couple of minutes. And when I refresh my backend page, I was taken aback by the totally different look and feel.

Overall experience till now is quite positive, I will need to explore further to get use to the new layout and to see what new stuffs have been incorporated.

Btw, upgrading is as easy as just 3 simple steps:

Step 1: Download the latest wordpress package

Step 2: Unzip and upload all the files into your webhost to replace your current blog files

Step 3: Run the url http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-admin/upgrade.php and just click on the buttons.

Thats it!

Do leave a comment on what you think about this new version. Currently, I do see a few issue with the editor and plugins..hmmm…

Although not a must, but you’re advised to backup your database and deactivate all the plugins before upgrading your wordpress blog. This is in case something went wrong during or after the upgrade.
