WordPress Upgrade v2.3 – Help Please – IE broke it

Posted on 26 September 2007

In case anyone noticed this evening I tried desperately to upgrade to WordPress v2.3. I was not successful and in fact I was pretty damn useless.

Thankfully Justin came to the rescue and helped me out with database backups and the like. Unfortunately I am a chop and neglected to backup up some very specific files that I have now lost. This includes some plugin code that I have now lost.

Plugins are quite a mission to get done and dusted with the new WP. You need to ensure that you DEACTIVATE ALL PLUGINS before installation of v2.3 as many plugins are not compatible. I was going to make use of Ultimate Tag Warrior but WP v2.3 has a built in tag generator. Again, unfortunately, I am being some what ridiculous and am struggling to get those to display.

I have almost replaced or upgraded all of my plugins as well as 98% of the code that i didn’t backup. Let me know what your take on the upgrade has been.

So now the installation has been completed, plugins done but I seem to be having issues with the theme for SA Rocks. Most of the people I have asked have given me the same answer to my problem. The problem: The SA Rocks theme doesn’t work particularly well in Internet Explorer. The answer from those I’ve asked for help: We use Mac, we don’t have Internet Explorer.

This is my problem too. I didn’t notice that the SA Rocks theme was screwy because at home and at work I run FireFox. I have been struggling desperately to sort out my IE problems but I think I have failed. If you are using IE and can see the problem (I can’t right now, no IE) then please let me know if you have a solution to my problem.

I hope I will get the problem sorted out as soon as possible. Thanks for your patience.

    I don’t see any problems with it Nic (running IE 7). But I know many times IE 6 and 7 displays completely different ways.

    Except for the background. But I guess that is personal taste. ;-)

    Update: The homepage is screwed in IE 7 too, but appears fine when opening a post.

    Guess I’m not much of help.
