Image upload does not work on my Ubuntu 7.10 laptop and WordPress 2.5. I’ll check using my Vista box. I’ll also setup a new scratch blog and see if it’s some setting or plugin I’m using. The 1.5 development version of Simple Tags seems to work with 2.5 now.

WordPress 2.5 is released
I’d gotten a surprise when I went to the WordPress.org support forum. To go with the new release of 2.5, WordPress.org has a new look. Because I have weakness of working with possibly broken software, I backed up my database, all my files, and upgraded to WordPress 2.5. I’ll see how it goes.
Widgetized my theme
In preparation of installing WordPress 2.5 I finally widgetized my theme. I’m using an old 2.0 version of FastTrack. Widgets have been around for a long time so as I play with 2.5 I figured I’d come up to speed with a 2.0 feature. I had a bunch of nested if..thens so that the home [...]
Playing with WordPress 2.5 beta
I keep a SVN based copy of the new WordPress 2.5-beta1 for playing with. I’m doing this because at sometime the version I’m running 2.3.x might not be supported for patches. Going from 2.2 to 2.3 was a no brainer, tags are a huge difference. 2.5 might not get me to jump for a while. [...]
Movable Type to WordPress
Over at my brother Stefan’s blog, he’s been running Movable Type for years. It bugged be because his server was slow, the theme was dated, it lacked a good archive page, etc. Mostly I did not like the look or the speed. Stefan takes really good pictures and I thought he should have a web [...]
Okay I think I got ATPP working
I think I’ve gotten the machine translation working to a point of good stability. Meaning my MySQL config is not killing the box with requests, caching seems to be working fine. Right now I have 65 translated pages in my database. When I encounter one that is munged (meaning the database timed out) I manually [...]
Fun with WordPress tags
Going from UTW to WordPress 2.3′s built in tag system was mostly painless. But there are somethings I miss about UTW. Two of those things are being able to display “Tags: None” and having my tags show up in my RSS feeds. Here is how I was able to put both back into my blog. [...]
WordPress 2.3 upgrade completed
WordPress 2.3 was released. The upgrade went exactly as planned and was all good. Now I have to think about cleaning up my hacked up theme.
Getting ready for WordPress 2.3
In a few days the new version of WordPress comes out and with the exception of tags, for me the upgrade to 2.3 is pretty straight forward. I have to plan to stop using UTW and switch to the built in tag system. I also want to make sure that I can fall back to [...]
Akismet Auntie-Spam Greasemonkey Script
Hey I was useful finding and fixing a bug Engtech’s Auntie-Spam greasemonkey script was loading the Akismet pages using xmlhttprequest to load all of the SPAM pages into one condensed page for digestion which is very cool. And for for non-SSL admin pages works flawlessly. I use the Admin SSL plugin on my WordPress blogs. [...]
