Yeah true.. ;) Thanks for reminding me of that, I just woke up a little while
ago..so half the brain is still in bed sleeping lol! =P That is one issue we
find on the forums though, sometimes the users will just upload the new files,
over the existing ones..and forget to revisit their admin control panel, or run
the wp-admin/upgrade.php files..
"We" usually tell them to delete all the files for the normal upgrade,
(everything but the .htaccess file, wp-config.php, wp-content folder, any
special plugin files outside the plugins folder, I hope I didn't forget
something) then upload the new ones and run the upgrade.php file.. But, I guess
it just boils down to the users following the directions to a "t", by actually
reading the material given to them.. ;)
I overlooked that part though, however, I've always ran the upgrade.php file
anyway.. just kept that habit I guess. ;) =) Anyway.. thanks for reminding me
of that.. ;)
