Upgraded to WordPress 2.5

Well, bit the bullet and updated to WordPress 2.5. I feel WordPress is something you want to keep very updated as it seems to be prone to being hacked. Well, ran into a few problems, but looks like a lot of other people did too. I guess none of these problems were really related to WordPress, but the K2 theme.

When I did the database update and loaded the site, everything was fine. However, when I logged into the dashboard, I was presented with:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: wp_register_sidebar_widget()…

I was able to fix this by taking the advice from Brad at Chaotictech, I was able to get into the Dashboard. However, I was faced with another issue. None of the sidebar widgets were working. So I downloaded the newest version (RC5) of the K2 theme and now everything else seems to be back to normal.

The dashboard interface is quite different and will probably take a bit to get used to. I am using the visual editor to see how that works. If it still sucks like it used to, then back to Ecto for me. :)
