WordPress 2.8 Download Review

WordPress has released a new version of WordPress. Wordpress 2.8 which is updated from WordPress 2.7.

Advantage of WordPress 2.8:

• New (easier to use) theme install capabilities.
• Syntax highlighting in the code editor (apparently not working in Google Chrome).
• Improved Widget user interface and support for using more than one widget of the same type.
• New screen options in every page to better organize the items on the screen.

I have upgraded this blog to WordPress 2.8 codenamed Baker, thanks to Twitter’s (follow me) trending topics option. I upgraded my blog manually by uploading the latest WordPress tar file on my website’s root folder and untar-ing it on my server thru SSH. It was my first time to access my web server thru SSH as I only had my shell access activated today.

The upgrade process went smoothly. Since I already had access to my web server’s shell, I was able to fix all security issues especially the permissions stuff. The process of changing the permissions was smooth, I just used issued the chmod 755 /wp-includes /wp-admin -R command.
