Make Sure You Check Your Plugins After You Upgrade Wordpress To Make Sure They Work

By Tim Gross - Internet Business Blog | August 18, 2008

Whenever you upgrade to a newer version of Wordpress, there’s a danger that the plugins you’ve installed won’t work correctly.

Before you upgrade, you should deactivate all plugins, upgrade, reactivate the plugins, and then make sure they work.

Case in point: Before leaving on vacation I upgraded Wordpress, and the upgrade caused my comment spam image to not show up, so if someone tried to leave a comment,  they couldn’t  view the image to answer the  question.   Oops.

Hey, it happens. (I’ve temporarily disabled the image “challenge question” from the comments until I get it straightened out.)
