Warning to wordpress users!!!

I tried upgrading my blog site from WP 2.1.2 to 2.13 and caused me a  lot of problems. Most of the times my site is unaccessible.
Here are some of the problems I have encountered:

-broken links for comments,category,post,admin area, theme editor etc
-themes missing under presentation/theme section
-themes are listed but no theme selected
-and a few others I don’t remember me.. excuse moi.. I am sick.. literally

Luckily, I made a back up.

So, if you are planning to click the upgrade link in fantastico or to do a manual upgrade, make sure to back up your database and the worpdress folder (where you have installed WP).  I don’t know yet what caused it. Maybe database incompatibility with the new verssion. I really don’t know,  I didn’t even bother to check for bugs/issues of the new version. So I’ll stick with 2.1.2 for the meantime.
Wonder what I did to fix this? I took a nap. Yes, I did!. Thanks to BOO, dyu, who went home after his lunch break to restore my old WP.

Wordpress Theme Generator

A really neat little project called “Wordpress Theme Generator” has been created that allows people with no coding knowledge to create their own semi-custom theme. It allows you to see the changes ‘live’ and upload your own header images, which is cool, right :) .
