[...] NOTE: DO NOT DOWNLOAD THE NEW WORDPRESS 2.0.3 UPGRADE! A number of annoying bugs has been found and announced and the decision at this time is to leave the buggy version on the download site and provide fixes to clean up the bugs. This is not a good idea, but we’re stuck with it right now. A fixed upgrade will hopefully be released soon. You have been warned. [...]

[...] Lorelle (a brilliant woman who provides spectacular WordPress advice) shared her thought process in deciding when to install a WordPress upgrade She writes: The first thing I always ask myself when considering an upgrade on anything, not just WordPress, is “Are you sure?” I think about the changes, improvements, and new features, and consider if it is worth it. I always upgrade in the end, but I give myself time to debate about it. [...]

Henri: I recommend you check out the Ultimate Tag Warrior Support Forum to get an answer on that.

BillG: IE is Internet Explorer. And luck follows all of us, good and bad.

The textarea, yeah thats it lol. GUess, I’ve been lucky, I post everynight and have never seen it before last week, and it totally sucks. I just know the one time I don’t “touch” the area, the data will be gone lol.
Funny thing is, it doesn’t happen in any other forms for me… just my luck I guess. What is IE?

Lorelle, yes after the upgrade (maybe you have a test blog in 2.03;)) Me, I upgrade wp to 2.03 and now UTW seem to be critical (errors during the writing of the tag in the database). Here is an example of the error :

WordPress database error: [Lost connection to MySQL server during query]
select tag from wp4_tags where tag = ‘radio.blog’

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /xxx/www/wp-includes/wp-db.php:102) in /xxx/www/wp-admin/post.php on line 128

Thanks if you have an idea!

Henri, do you mean any problems with UTW after the upgrade? I haven’t upgraded yet (see reasons above ). I haven’t had any problems with UTW that I haven’t written about. It works brilliantly on my other site.
