Updating wordpress

September 8th, 2008

Now running version 2.6.1

All went well really, couple of plugins also needed updating, but surprisingly smooth.
My only significant problem was when uploading pictures through the new style interface.
I post pics to a daily photo page and they are scaled to 710px, but when i posted and clicked use original the post would publish with a 500px version.
Not good, I found a solution here

Go to /wp-includes/media.php on line 84 and comment that line (//)

 // any other type: use the real image and constrain it
// list( $width, $height ) = image_constrain_size_for_editor
( $meta['width'], $meta['height'], $size );

Easy fix, it’s all good.
