Apparently, I’ve Upgraded to WordPress 2.6.2

Nothing should be different on your end.

Unfortunately (fortunately?) nothing seems to be different on my end.

    Sounds like a lot of effort, Brian. I haven’t upgraded to 2.6.2 yet, but I’ve gone through a number of WP upgrades already, and usually all I need to do is click on a single link and wait for no more then a minute – and voila! The backup of the database – which is the only one I care to perform – also takes about 15 seconds. Must be the spoils of paying for a hosted domain…

    Well, to be fair, I followed the directions explicitly (or tried to…darn stupid mistakes). The database backup did take around 15 seconds – Yahoo’s Export function gives you complete repopulation SQL, right down to the CREATE TABLE statements if necessary.

    The bulk of the time was backing up the WordPress files, because it wasn’t just a 1-click delete (they wanted me to delete specific files & folders and leave others alone). I could totally see why you’d skip this step, but given that it was my first time upgrading, I wanted to be prepared for anything.

    Next time around will go much faster…
