WordPress 2.3
Well, I decided to go ahead & take the plunge. Moggylaceous is now running WordPress v2.3.
For the most part it went very smoothly (including importing my UTW tags), but there were a few issues.
The biggest change is that there’s no more Ultimate Tag Warrior. The new built-in tagging functions do most of what I wanted. However, the one thing that seemed to be missing was an option to get related posts based on the tags used. I found this great post on the tagging plugins available for v2.3. Apparently there’s supposed to be a plugin for UTW template tag compatibility, but it hasn’t been released yet. Ultimately, I decided to go with the Simple Tags plugin.
The main thing that actually broke was HemingwayEx’s get_asides_category_id function. Since the database structure has changed, I had to edit this function. It was pretty simple though. Simply change: cat_ID –> term_ID, categories –> terms, & cat_name –> name.
