WordPress 2.5 Upgrade
I have stepped out on a limb and upgraded one of my production blogs (Riley’s Page) to WordPress 2.5 RC1. Well, it is sort of production in that it is still live. I plan to shutdown Riley’s Page at some point and consolidate all of my family blogging into my personal blog. Here a couple of additional notes about this upgrade so far:
- Riley’s Page was running on its own MYSQL database instance
- It was a direct upgrade from WP 2.1 to 2.5
- The blog uses the default WordPress theme (the theme folder was not upgraded at all)
Others are blogging about this today and recommending a little more cautious approach than what I am taking.

Invitation: I am inviting all of my blogging buddies to take a look under the hood of WordPress 2.5. If you know me well enough to have my personal email, then drop me a note and I will hook you up with an admin account on the back end of Riley’s Page.
