Upgrading to WordPress 2.7.1
Filed in: Blogging, WordPress Add comments
It’s been a while since I installed WordPress manually on my Web hosting server last time. So I decide to upgrade my WordPress to the latest release. The process of upgrading was actually quite simple by following the instructions. Here are the step I took:
- Download WordPress 2.7.1.
- Back up my database via my hosting service provider’s database administration tools.
- Back up all my existing WordPress files onto my local disk via FTP.
- Upload and overwrite all WordPress files and sub folders with the new release, except the “wp-content” folder, which contains custom plugins and themes.
- Go back to WordPress admin page (http://www.yourdomain.com/wordpress/wp-admin/) and upgrade the WordPress database (as simple as clicking on a link) as instructed.
That was it! Now I got a spanking shiny new WordPress interface!
