Upgrading Wordpress

Moany posts are terribly passe, so I am going to desist and just say that I have tried all sorts of alternatives to WP recently and come back every single time to thinking that it’s probably the best out there. And the incredible advances made over at WP.com have now made it so easy to use it’s a delight. They even have domain mapping to email via Google. Crikey!

So I am going to give this another try.

This site’s running on 2.5 at the moment, and seems pretty much broken all over the place. If I upgrade to 2.7, allegedly it’ll have all the whizzbangs of the WP.com version, including making all future upgrades a one-click affair. Hah. We shall see.

Given that it has been impossible to kill this website over the almost six months of no posts – my visitor numbers have remained steady with incomprehensible peaks every now and again resulting in between 2-300 visits per day, I am sure this note will reach someone.

Quite who, though… ?

    It reached me! :)

    Actually I started using wordpress.com recently, just because I wanted an easy life. You lose flexibility of plugins and such like, but really, when it comes down to it, the most important bit is the bit that people want to read, so does any of the other stuff really matter that much? Probably not.

    Me too, you are completely right. This and the so-called professional site are the only ones I have hosted now. It’s a reet pita and no, one’s readers do not care.

    Where can I see your pics of: the uneasy survival of a pit village on England’s desolate North Sea…sounds interesting!

    Paul – I used to post them on their own website, now sadly no longer available. But you’re right, they are interesting.

    Will dig a few out.
