Upgrading to WP 2.3.1

Though I successfully upgraded several other sites, my experience on this site hasn’t been pleasant. Issues I’ve faced (with varying levels of success):

  1. Upgrade flat out didn’t work, I had to import my exported blog entries (I tried to use a db backup and just had the same problems over again).
  2. Lost all category assignments (and haven’t found any bulk category assigning mechanism)
  3. Lost over a year of UTW tags (2.3.1 doesn’t support ultimate tag warrior, it’s got its own internal engine that didn’t accept the old ones)
  4. URLs didn’t “stick”
  5. Lost all my blogroll link categorization

[blog] to do list

  1. change the default theme header photos to my own
  2. add the breadcrumb plugin
    1. put up plugin page and add to WP plugins site
  3. follow up on Facebook posts
  4. post accumulated research
    1. Facebook
    2. Google Analytics
    3. Higher ed user expectations
