And, actually, upgrading to WordPress 2.6 was pretty easy. It’s supposed to be very similar to WordPress 2.5 so users of this site shouldn’t really notice a change. I like to keep my programs updated to take advantage of additional features. Additionally, most updates/upgrades install additional security measures.

I was concerned about the various plugins I’ve installed in this website and how they might interact with the new version. Some of them control how the site looks and others control how the site acts. They look fine so far . . . . If you notice something on the site which looks or acts weird, please let me know so that I can fix it immediately.

Hopefully I’ll be upgrading this website again in the next few days.

This website was created using the WordPress open source blog software. WordPress is a flexible program for creating websites and blogs. Since this program is “open source“, its source code is open for anyone to review and can be modified by anyone (sufficiently nerdy ((Such as myself.)) ).

The earliest test versions of the blog-website version of PDRater.com were built using WordPress 2.3. This was superseded by version 2.5 in late March. Version 2.6 was just released. I will be upgrading to the latest version as soon a I get a chance. If all goes well, you’ll never notice a thing.

As a side note, upgrading my installation of WordPress is a lesser priority than redeveloping the calculators.
