I just upgrade this blog to the Wordpress 2.5 sneak peek. Everything seems to be working as before but if you do notice any issues, please leave a comment to let me know.

While testing it out locally, I did run across an issue where clicking the Update Database button in wp-admin resulted in a corrupted .htaccess file (which in turn resulted in a 500 Internal Server Error). It was easy enough to fix by adding a newline -- it had mashed two lines together -- and is reproducable on my Mac under MAMP. I had no such issues on my Linux-based deployment box.

The biggest changes in 2.5 are to the admin interface, which has received a complete overhaul.

My Inline Posts plugin appears to be working well and STCFX has a list of all Wordpress plugins known to work well with version 2.5.

• I had the .htaccess mangling issue in my production environment. Thanks so much for making a note of that on your blog! Got me back up and running.

• Thanks for posting this. Had the same hiccup over at my blog. You saved me from what was potentially a long, frustrating night and a headache. Cheers!

• As a home-based computing worker, I just need to say that I'm not really ok with your article. Actually, I've already seen many other different classes of products and services that are more helpful and useful than the one you present here. Regards, John.
