I was happy with Wordpress 2.3, and I'm still getting used to this new version. I'm still having some issues with plugins that I want to use, but for the most part it's good. It took me a minute to get used to the different admin layout.

Excellent roundup, although right now we have 2.5 already, which is very stable and satisfying....
Great post

Hi,
I was just wondering does any one know how to give non-members a password for your blog so that they can read it. I need to give a few of my lecturers a password to my project blog.

Thanks in advance,
Shauna

Something missing though is a Tag administration panel. If, now, Wordpress is going to take care of Tags instead of doing it through plugins, it should definitely have a panel to administer them.

Great Article and the bit about canonical domains was interesting. I must admit i used joomla and wordpress and the flexibility that wordpress has and ease of use for clients has made me pick nothing else for my blog and CMS websites since.

That is some great information on Wordpress, something we all need. I find that the All-In-One SEO Plugin is awesome as well as some of the plugins you mentioned. I'm interested in learning different CMS's like Drupal, Joomla, etc. Wordpress is easy to use, and there are tons of templates available... which is why it's my CMS of choice.

Since the upgrade to 2.3, I have not been able to digg any of my articles. I try but digg tells me, "This link does not appear to be a working link." But it is not. Any idea? You help is kindly appreciated.

I've resisted from installing 2.3, but will need to upgrade soon. Thanks for a great roundup.

I am very happy with wp2.3. But I face some problems, I can`t add any new categories. It doesn`t work. Even in wp-forum, there`s no solution. Can you help??

@n-blue: you have to IMPORT the tags yourself - it doesn't happen automatically. Go to Manage > Import.

I don't think WordPress 2.3 import any tag from other tag plugin. I used UTW, after installed 2.3 then apply the new template method(for tag). Nothing show? no tag that imported.

As just another UTW user that's disappointed that they didn't get EVERYTHING UTW did into 2.3's tag supports, I made a teensy little plugin that outputs tags without making them links. Useful for inserting into meta-keywords, etc.

So are they done with 2.2.x, or will 2.2.x be the stable branch while they work the kinks out of 2.3.x?

@Christophe: WP-Cache was misconfigured and not working properly - thus affecting the sites availability during the Digg. After we got it configged right and working properly, everything hummed along nicely.

Thanks for the roundup - now I can make an informed decision on what sites to update to 2.3 and which to wait on. I should mention that the Google Sitemaps WP plugin breaks on 2.3 in you don't upgrade and get the lastest version.

Dionysus yes, if you actually have a look at the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) it's a open collaboration for web application security. Secondly i'm well aware about Open Source projects and their lack of direction when it comes to any standards.

It seems like your argument is that Open Source projects are hard to control, therefore security and basic security development doesn't apply because there is "no vendor".

Your other argument is that us researchers should fix the problem ourselves. Now we can, but the issue is that it would be applying a band-aid approach. Education of the developers to create secure software at the start would mean the community would praise them, as their blogs would be more secure out of the box.

Please don't use the "axioms of open source" argument as the excuse for lack of security. If the linux kernel and numerous other open source projects can embrace SDLC, then why not Wordpress?

Daniel, are the "security researchers" you use as an example at all familiar with the axioms of open source development?

There is no vendor to contact. It almost sounds like you are bitching about a general situation in the security field and not wordpress at all.

If you see a problem that you know how to fix, chances are the other people don't, and you and any other "researchers" should become developers, and do the development yourselves.

The community will not hate you for it, quite to the contrary, they will likely praise you.
