I just upgraded to WordPress 2.7. It was super simple, no glitches whatsoever.<\/p>\n
Earlier in the day, I noticed that there was an updated version of the Simple Tags plugin that I use, clearly stating that it worked with 2.7. I upgraded that while still running 2.6.5.<\/p>\n
Then I upgraded WordPress to 2.7 on my laptop, running XAMPP. The only complaint I got was about Simple Tags, which I hadn’t upgraded on the laptop (and I updated it then). All other plugins just worked, and the new theme, PrimePress just worked as well.<\/p>\n
I hadn’t installed any betas or release candidates before, so this is my first real look at the new admin interface. I’ve seen screen shots, and it’s crisp, clean and reasonably intuitive.<\/p>\n
I’m officially a fan<\/strong>, even though I clearly haven’t exercised it in any meaningful way yet. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n P.S. First glitch, the Preview<\/em> link gave me a 404, so something isn’t being put where it should be. Can’t find an obvious cause, so I’m punting for now, and just publishing. I’ll track down my preview problem over the weekend…<\/p>\n Update<\/strong>: I just did a test of Preview on the laptop, and it worked fine. So, there isn’t anything wrong at the WP level. I am now quessing that something about the URL scheme for Previews changed slightly, and my own rules at the NginX level are failing (the equivalent of Apache rewrite rules). When I’m sure, I’ll update again…<\/p>\n
