Michael Jackson was the black man who wanted to be white. Ask hid dad about it.
He couldn’t even work out that with 12 months’ rent he could have BOUGHT the whole crappy estate and be rent-free from then on.

Get your shit together dude as you end up upsetting legit people who then will seek revenge

Michael Jackson is my favorite pop artist ever since i was a child. He is truly the King of Pop and i am saddened by this news.

@Pratheesh: Help is available 24 hours a day for free in the WordPress Support Forums. Search the forums to see if someone else has had the problem and then ask if they haven't. Have you tried one of the thousands of other Themes out there? The problem could be isolated with a bad upload of the Default WordPress Theme.

I’m facing a very frustrating problem after upgrading to 2.5
none of the comments on the pages are visible. even the ‘add comment’ box is not visible.
I was using the ‘Default’ theme.

When i changed to ‘Classic’ theme, everything works.
Any chance someone could help ?

Hi,

Definitely upgrade. It is an improvement for the best.

I hesitate to install new “dot” version of applications, particular open source as I state in:

WordPress 2.5 – new version released. Should I upgrade?

On the other hand, the more people install and feed that back to WordPress, the quicker 2.5.1 comes out with more improvements.

And I love that about WordPress. How flexible and dynamic it is.

Hmm as a graphic designer im not convinced that this admin theme is the best option. Its better in some respects like the organisation but the colours… hmm

@Broccoletto:

Clearly there is more wrong than something with WordPress. The more you mess with things, the more likely they are to break. That’s a real world lesson, not a WordPress one. :D

Updating WordPress is a couple minute effort, unless you have a lot of WordPress Plugins or Theme issues that also needed updates.

Millions are using WordPress in all types and styles without any major problems. Wonder what your problem was…guess we won’t ever know. Luckily, you can remove it if you want to.

Nice post and I wished my experience with WP had been a good one lol in one month I did more updates than blog posts, then yesterday I spent an hour on a post, and after publishing it I couldn’t see any posts at all.
I messed with it for 10 minutes then simply wiped the slate clean. Blog’s gone. Oh well..

我只希望2.5可以解决速度这个问题。现在的WP速度太慢了。不知道WP为什么会这样。

btw I think this very blog should have the latest comments to come up top of the page and not at the bottom, but it’s just a suggestion :)

Your article made me want to first upgrade my blog, then start using it!
Well written, will take a look at the new version, hope the upgrade goes smoothly :)

@Monika: Remember, the new interface you are seeing is not yet final. They may make last minute fixes and changes before the release and some will be made on the path to the next release. This is a major overhaul of the Administration Panels, and I expect a lot of positive and negative responses. Peaking before it's really final means often seeing it before it's really ready. :D

Yes the new interface in administration panel is heavy. My widescreen show me 1200px width text- this I can’t read they are extremly too long.=usability is gone :(

write – custom-fields-trackbacks- categories ie and then scroll UP to safe?

Nobody can tell me that this logical. All buttons are on the left side – why?

oh my dear:usability and accessibility is gone -far far away.

Monika

@Eerik: Yes. See Hosting WordPress for specifics. Or switch to WordPress.com.

This is the first I had heard that the functionality from optimal title was being put in the core…wish it would have been like that from the beginning :-) Thanks for the quick summary of things to look out for in the new version.

Yes, its the latest actually pulled from SVN… I agree that lots have been improved and the overall look is nice… but that write post page really bothers me… I have to scroll just to enter a catgory.. I have to scroll to do tags… I have to scroll to set the slug, the custom fields, etc… and granted, I had to scroll from some already…

Another thing I wish they would have implemented was dropdown menus, but luckily plugins easily fix that…

It probably not fair to center on the bad, but that always seems to be the easist… After enough time, most will probably like it better and I agree, they will improve it too..

I am very excited by 2.5, I am keeping mum about the new features which I do not know of. The idea of reducing 2 plugins for my blog with 2.5 is a huge bonus – Gravatars and Tags management. Way to go WordPress, I can’t wait for March 10.
