If you missed WordCamp Vancouver and wanted more than the slides I posted previously, now you can watch Catherine Winters & I talk about WordPress 3.0 just a short while before it came out:
As Catherine & I talked about, WordPress 3.0 is a very easy (and fast) update for people who are already using WordPress 2.9.x. If you’re using an earlier version, make sure your plugins are up to date and things are working then back up your WordPress database, then do the update. If you have to downgrade, there are ways to do that, however it is pretty rare that people have been forced down that path of its own special Hell.
What would be likely to break (if anything)?
- Special plugins you had made just for you
- Plugins that haven’t been updated in the last year +
- Very customized themes that pushed the edges of what WordPress can do
That’s about it. Enjoy!
