Upgrade WordPress to 2.9.2

Keeping your self-hosted WordPress blogs up to very important to prevent technical issues and to close security holes that have been discovered. WordPress.com users don’t need to concern themselves with these upgrades as WordPress.com handles that internally for all its users.

I just completed the upgrade on 4 of my WordPress sites with no problems. I use the automatic upgrade feature built into WordPress which basically consists of pushing a button.

Log into you WordPress sites today and keep them upgraded for trouble free operation.

  2. hi , i want to upgrade my wordpress to 2.9.2
    Can you guy help to tell me how to do it.
    thanks a lot

  3. WordPress 2.8 and 2.9 come with an automatic upgrade feature that works very well. Using this is the best way to upgrade your WordPress site.

    If you are using older versions, you need to download the WordPress software, unpack it and then ftp it to your web site. There are several areas you need to tread with caution, though, so if that is that case, let me know and we can delve into that type of upgrade.

    how about with no automatic upgrade in my blog????

      On WordPress.com (the hosted version) you are upgraded automatically since WordPress controls all those installs directly. You shouldn’t have to do anything.

    I see.

    On WordPress.com you cannot install your own plugins or themes. You can only do that on a self-hosted WordPress blog that is on your own web site.

    This is a limitation of WordPress.com, not an issue with any updates.
