Laughing Squid: The WordPress Automatic Upgrade Plugin Rocks

  • Simone · 2 years ago
    Yes, but will it mess with my template?

    Only one way to find out. . . .

    It doesn't touch your templates... but if the underlying WordPress software changes, you might need to update your template.

    You can also use subversion to update wordpress. When you need to upgrade, just type in a single svn switch command to upgrade to the desired branch.

    The built-in automatic upgrade plugin for WordPress 2.5 stopped working recently. I was told by a tech support guy that it's because I installed and activated the WordPress Automatic Upgrade Plugin. He suggested I deactivate the plugin. I did this, but the automatic plugin upgrade feature still does not work.

    Anyone else have this experience? Suggestions?
