Did You Have Any Problems Upgrading To WordPress 2.3?
I was just about to upgrade my blog to WordPress 2.3, but luckily I decided to upgrade a test blog first because I wasn’t sure what was going to happen to the tags I’d placed on posts using the Simple Tagging Plugin.
I’m glad that I did, as although I managed to import my Simple Tagging tags, there’s no way for me to manage them.
The most worrying aspect of my test WordPress 2.3 upgrade, was that my categories disappeared from my sidebar. Has anybody else had any upgrade problems? I think I’m definitely going to stay on 2.2 for a while, at least until the tagging functionality improves.

I had a couple of problems - firstly, the XML sitemap generator was causing problems, but if you upgrade to the latest version the problem is solved. The second problem was an issue with the post editing page, which I remedied by… well, actually I didn’t. I only post posts, so it’s not that big a deal.

There just isn’t enough new functionality in 2.3 for me to justify going through the expected pain of upgrading. It’s not often that I’m not one of the first to upgrade!
