今はWordpressを改善するよい時間常にである
2008年2月8日 · デイヴィッドブラッドリー著
私はWordpressの最も最近の版に最終的にSciencebaseの私の場所を改善した、ずっと余りに長くのために版2.1.3で憂鬱な生活を送って、その遺産版と最近版2.3.3間に多くの保証改善がずっとある。 それは賢く示されたのウェインLiewによってポスト行った ウェインLiewのドット・コム それは私を必要のするように説得した。
LiewはWordpressの最近のバージョンへの改善がマイナーなセキュリティの欠陥からあなたの場所の保護を助けることができることを指摘する。 例えば、最近の2.3.2から2.3.3改善は登録ユーザがポスト他のユーザーの」編集できるセキュリティ上の問題を避けるので単に要求される、明らかによい事ではない。 単一ファイルの改善はあなたの場所を切り刻んでいれば誰かを防げばする価値があること。
Liewは強く差込式Wordpressの自動改善を使用することを推薦する(WPAU)しかし私それが私がどれくらい簡単に非常に古い版からの改善を手動でされるか、または自動化された調査したtrepidationとあったことを言わなければならない。
私は1.5版から手動でまたはthereabouts改善し、バックアップファイルの点では幾分苦痛見つけ、ファイル許可等等削除しないべき、どの物従って私を再調節して非常にWPAUを使用するように誘惑されたか覚えている古いファイルおよびホールダーをであるとそれが削除する。
差込式はあなたの場所を再起動するWordpressの最終的な「データベース改善」のリンクにあなたのファイルおよびデータベースを、非活動化させる差込を、ダウンロードするWordpressの改善をファイルしたり、取付けるそれらを、再活性化する非活動化させたそれらの差込だけ、きれいにする一時ファイルおよびポイントをバックアップする。

改善したいと思ってそれらのための速い先端はここにいる-より小さく、より少なく重要な場所のWPAUを最初に試みなさい。 すべて完全に働けばあなたのメイン・サイトの自動化された改善を引き受けるために信任を与える。
先端は1つ以上の場所があるときだけ、そしてそれらの1が他よりあなたにとってより少なく重要なら適用する明らかに。 より小さい場所の私の巧妙な改善は(とはいえ2.3.2をからに従って私がSciencebase WPAUの改善を引き受けたことを2.3.3跳ぶただ)私を確信させ。
当然、Fantasticoシステムが付いているホストにあれば造られるWordpressの改善を自動化した。 唯一の問題はFantasticoが通常現在のバージョン後ろ遅れることである(実際は執筆、の時に2.3.2に、坐っている)

とにかく、WPAUは、すばらしい救助だった初めて完全に働いた。 However, having been using a 2.1.5 widgetized system the final result was a messed up sidebar that took a few little tweaks to fix (some widgets were missing and others were in the incorrect order, although that may have been down to caching problems rather than the upgrade itself).
However, one or two plugins simply failed to run in the latest version (Top Posts by Category and Get Recent Comments, for instance). I removed these altogether pending the release of compatible updates. Other than that I’ve had no problems. Several other plugins were flagged as requiring upgrades, and these were duly done. If you happen to visit Sciencebase.com and spot any problems I’ve not seen, perhaps you could let me know.

Thank you for well-timed prompt! I’ll update my wordpress-based photoblog today.

Although Sig Figs was at version 2.3.2 of Wordpress and it would have been simpler just to download the single file update required to take it to 2.3.3, I thought I’d better stand by my assertions in this post and use WPAU. It worked (eventually). I had to do several page refreshes during the automated update. And, although everything was fine in the end, I can see that some users might panic and think they’ve trashed their site when they see blank screens. Don’t panic. Just do a full refresh of the page at whatever stage it stalls at, and repeat until you get the link to move on to the next step.

David,
I was glad to hear your good news about upgrading WordPress with this plugin. Like you, I was very concerned about upgrading. I used the plugin, and it worked, but I could not download the backup files.
While I’m glad the upgrade worked (at least I think it worked! I’m still checking the pages), I was very disappointed that it did not allow me to download the backup files.
Each time I tried to download, all I got was a page not found error. I checked the files online to see if they were on my site, but couldn’t find the backup files. All I found in the wpau-backup folder were an empty index.php and an empty index.html file, with no content.

Deborah, if it worked, then it doesn’t matter about the backup files (this time). Next time do a manual backup before you run the plugin, just in case the same thing happens again. Your blog is definitely showing the latest version, right?

Wordpress version 2.5 is on its way. In fact, you can trial it now http://wp.chrisjohnston.org/?p=3

Hi David,
Being the cautious person I am, I did do a backup before I ran the plugin. I was glad it worked! But a bit concerned that the plugin’s backup didn’t work.
Yes, the site I used this on has been updated correctly and is showing the most recent version.

Deborah, it worked fine on the various blogs I ran it on. I guess we’ll never know why you couldn’t get the backups within the plugin itself…
…as with all plugins there could be a conflict with another plugin. Maybe the way to do it next time would be to deactivate all plugins manually except WPUA, and then reactivate once everything is complete. I realize that’s starting to negate some of the benefits of WPUA, but it would still make the upgrade process simpler than a total manual upgrade.

Brian,
Good suggestion. I’ll turn off the plugins the next time, before I use the upgrade plugin. Hopefully I’ll remember to come back and report if it worked any better!

Deborah…who’s Brian?
Yes, please do, this is likely to be an ongoing thread especially as Wordpress 2.5 is on its way next month.

Hi David,
Not sure where I found the name David. My apologies!
I read a review of WordPress 2.5 earlier today. If this gets through (I wasn’t sure if you accepted urls in your comments) - here’s the site:

Well as most Wordpress bloggers will know by now, the program has reached version 2.5 and it’s soooo much slicker and better than the previous versions, so now really is the time to upgrade. Double check your backups, make sure you know which plugins will fail and take the plunge!

Hi David,
Thanks for your detailed post on the importance of upgrading wordpress.
I must admit I was lagging with my upgrades & was very wary about doing it. Thankfully all went well. Haven’t taken the jump to 2.5 as yet.
I’d also heard about deactivating your plugins before upgrading even with the WPAU. I have noticed that a link has appeared informing me there is an upgrade.

Deactivating plugins is an essential, but with WPAU it reactivates only those that were active before the upgrade so any disabled plugins that happen to be in your folder don’t get inadvertently started. Jump to 2.5, security and features make it a must. 2.6 is on its way soon, though…
