Geez-o-pete

I just spent the last hour trying desperately to fix the blog. After upgrading to WordPress 2.5 at the beginning of the month, I figured upgrading to 2.5.1 should be a piece of cake, right? WRONG. So wrong. I kept having this wonky problem with save and publish buttons and lots of flashing, and it took me forever and ever just to write last week’s Friday Foster post. I was not a happy camper. Of course, I work in an IT department and I’m used to logging help desk incidents and having them be resolved, or being the one that says “we can’t duplicate your error, so there’s nothing we can do to fix it”. I’d much rather be on that end. Ultimately I had to delete everything from my server and do a fresh installation, deactivating and reactivating each little thing until I was sure it wasn’t broken anymore. That seems to have fixed it, so now I can go back to my regularly scheduled posting… just in time for Foster Friday.
