Surprisingly less painful than I imagined…
Ever since first installing WordPress on my site, I’ve had a lovely little bar that said that my version was out of date. It was something that I sort of got used to seeing and I just ignored it. And then, as I started adding plugins to my site, I started to get frustrated and feel like I fully wasn’t in control and that I was just letting my WordPress run me. That I couldn’t do something as simple as just upgrade WordPress.
As simple as. I didn’t know it was a simple upload and overwrite operation after backing up your files. Really I didn’t. Every time that I had thought about it or mentioned it to someone, it seemed like it was a grumbling gruesome effort. Like you’d be reformatting your computer, then installing Dos, then Win3.1, then Win95, then WinXP, just to have everything back to normal. A sort of “all day affair,” if you will.
Nope, a simple copy and paste. Overwrite all old files? Yes please. You know, I’m slowly getting the hang of things around here. And I think that scares me…
In other news, I’m going to probably have the other upgrades I want to do on my site done within the next few days… Not that I know of what I want to upgrade, but its just a few plugins here and there.
And I’m slowly queueing up my weekend drafts so I’ll be posting those before you know it… And probably on the run from my cell phone. Man, I’m way way too connected with this sucker…
