Thanks for the heads up Mike, Really looking forward to the upgrade to 2.8 and so far none of the plugins I use are on the naughty list. Really love some of the features they have added to 2.8. Keep us posted! Brett McEllhiney´s last blog post..Chance to Win 126 Complete Niche PLR products!

2 things – First if you are on 2.7 and not 2.7.1 upgrade to that because it was a security fix.

You can search by topic here and that will usually locate the posts you are interested in.

I just got done upgrading to 2.7 last week. Figure its best to go slow and listen for screams of anguish. I hope to be able to come back here when I get around to the upgrade. Wondering though, other than copying the permalink and putting it in a file, or remembering your title, what would be the best way to keep track of this and/or other blog posts I might want to remember and reference back again at a future date?

Great… I’m looking forward to see what all they change. Thank you for the reminder, as it is important that we all update.

I like the videos and your notes about checking to make sure everything is backed up and working. This is very useful information and I hope I will get things ready to go. Thanks.

Mike, Thanks for keeping us posted on 2.8 progress. I think if any of my plugins are not compatible, I may wait a while to update. Don’t see either of my themes in the list of “Working Themes, no issues” either.

Hey Mike,
Thnaks for the post and the video. I have to agree with Doug, I’ll wait for now. The back up tips are appreciated

Thanks for the heads-up, Mike – after seeing all the compatibility issues, I downloaded a clean copy of 2.7.1 and will stick to using it for now – why risk conflicts on a dozen blogs we’ve put so much time into with testing and tweaks – when WP gets it together and comes out with backward-compatible updates, then I can go to whatever version it is by then – in the meantime I have this one ready to use anytime.
