Got my blog updated and everything is working okay. But I am glad that I took your advice and backed up my files before. I did have a few problems that had to be corrected and I would have cried if I had lost all my material. Thanks for the tips.

Thanks for the tip on the widget. I found that out myself the hard way the first time I added one.

Oh well, live and learn

Thanks for continuing to provide us with great information on WordPress.

BTW: Love Wordpress 2.8, especially the ability to take a widget offline without losing your configuration and being able to put it back at a later date.

I’m one that likes to wait before upgrading. If it ain’t broke dont fix it. I will eventually upgrade to 2.8 but only when I have time and am not rushed. That way I make sure I back up properly – fopllowing one of your backup posts.

Thanks for keeping us all up to speed on WordPress, Mike! Have never seen a program or service release so many incremental changes – so many that it makes it impossible for most marketers to stay on top of them. Due to your specialization in this area you’re able to, and passing along just the most important of those changes to your readers makes this a very valuable resource to all online marketers – Thanks!

Sounds like a theme problem then. You have tow choices if you did the backups.

Reinstall 2.7.1 and if necessary bring back the data base you saved or change your theme.

Personally I would change the theme unless the theme author is going to update it to make it compatible.

One of my blogs handled the wordpress 2.8 upgrade perfectly. Another Blog with a different theme but the exact same widgets crashed all widget functions. Do you have suggestions?

Reinstall did not help.
