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…

I have never upgrade before, you mind if I ask where you upload the folder ‘wordpress’ to which folder in the web hosting data based?
Generally, let’s say your blog is accessible from http://www.abc.com then you u/l the files into the /public_html folder.
If from http://www.abc.com/blog, then you u/l the files into /public_html/blog instead.
Basically, you just need to compare the folders and filenames to know where your blog files are. Btw, you don’t u/l the wordpress folder, but the files in it.
If you need any help, just let me know.
Hey Thanks for the knowledge….
No Problem…Btw, take note that some of the plugins does not support version 2.5.
