But really, it isn't all that bad. As long as you really do back everything up before you start, there are no irreversible mistakes (though sometimes a little bit of frustration). I haven't upgraded WordPress since I installed it, but I imagine I'll venture to that shortly... Thanks for dropping by! ~Graham Hi Jonathan,

Yes, I tried to make it as straight forward as possible, but there is no way around it: people are going to cringe when they read “backup the database” and “go to MyPHPAdmin on your server”… But really, it isn’t all that bad.

I haven’t upgraded WordPress since I installed it, but I imagine I’ll venture to that shortly…

Thanks for dropping by!

Sounds like a like to work for the technically-challenged! I have to upgrade my WordPress software and am cringing at the thought of all the work required! I wish this stuff was as easy as upgrading a standard application. Good work on your blog. I'll have to chime on more often.
