WordPress 2.5.1 Available, Upgrade!

WordPress_logo First update for WordPress 2.5 branch has been released. WordPress 2.5.1 contains performance improvements along with critical security fixes for vulnerabilities which are not public yet. Totally, WP 2.5.1 contains over 70 bug fixes.

If you are using WordPress Automatic Upgrade Plugin, then upgrading shouldn’t be a problem. For others, (as always) I have put together an express upgrade zip, which contains only files that have been modified subsequent to WP 2.5. You may download it from here [411 KB].

Likewise, if you are only concerned about security fixes, you need to upgrade just 3 files (wp-includes/pluggable.php, wp-admin/includes/media.php, and wp-admin/media.php).

Just keep in mind that you need to be running WP 2.5 to do an express upgrade to WP 2.5.1, else you’ll need to download the whole WP 2.5.1 package for here and then perform the upgrade. More details on the upgrading are available in Codex.

  • Oh, every month wordpress comes with new versions.. Why don't they release some stable version ? Every month I have to upgrade my wordpress powered blogs..
  • Likewise, I've got a lot to update! However, its generally worthwhile to get things up to date. I find it is quickest to get in using puTTy, and unzip the whole shebang there.
  • On it.... I've got too many blogs to update. DOH! (over 40)

    Thilak, how much effort does it take to get your blog looking pristine, it is always heavy on the imagery and very eye catching.
  • Johnson: Sorry, unknowingly I had uploaded those files in ASCII mode. Just re-uploaded them. Thanks for the heads-up
