Upgrade to Wordpress 2.0.2

Remember the rule, “Never upgrade to version X.0 of anything?”

I broke it, and upgraded to WP 2.0. Silly me.

Of course, a few weeks later version 2.0.2 with important security upgrades was released.

That’s what I’m doing this morning. Testing stuff. Maybe I need this book:Pro WordPress Development

Please leave a test comment, especially if you see anything odd. Of course, any unusual behavior might be a function of the upgrade in progress, but let me know. Thanks.

Once I turn on the WP-cache plug-in, it will purposely cache recently viewed pages (a feature, not a bug).

From the following, it looks like I have some more work to do.

How To Blog - How To Podcast » Blog Archive » WordPress PHP Code Injection Vulnerability

Rgod has discovered a vulnerability in WordPress, which can be exploited by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system. Input passed to various fields when registering or updating the user profile isn’t properly sanitised before being stored in PHP scripts in the wp-content/cache/userlogins/ and wp-content/cache/users/ directories inside the web root.

    Posting works.

    The Amazon plug-in works. Try to say ’****’ to check the politifier plug-in.

    Do comments work? Yes, they do, and edit comments seems okay.

    This is a test It’s only a test. If it were more than a test it would be followed by running, screaming flames and fire trucks.

    Fortunately its just a test.
