Wordpress Woes

By Adam Tinworth on September 25, 2007 3:38 PM | 2 Comments | No TrackBacks
You know, I keep hearing about how difficult Movable Type is to install & maintain, but I've never had any real trouble doing it.

I just upgraded my Wordpress blog, Coffee & Complexity, to version 2.3. It broke, horribly, despite me following all the recommended steps.

I'm less than happy. Guess I'll get to find out if that Wordpress community is all it's cracked up to be, if I can't fix it myself…

Update: Based on some advice I found on forums, I deleted the whole installation, and reinstalled it from scratch. That solved the problem, but destroyed the customised look'n'feel of the site, which is a pain... Not exactly a smooth process.

So I'm going to be extra careful and backup everything before I upgrade.

I have a suspicion that it was something to do with the templates, but I can't be sure.

Just not got the skill level. :)
