Online Marketing for Local Businesses 1-2-3

On June 18, 2010, the latest version of WordPress was released.

WordPress 3.0, the thirteenth major release of WordPress and the culmination of half a year of work by 218 contributors, is now available for download (or upgrade within your dashboard). Major new features in this release include a sexy new default theme called Twenty Ten. Theme developers have new APIs that allow them to easily implement custom backgrounds, headers, shortlinks, menus (no more file editing), post types, and taxonomies. (Twenty Ten theme shows all of that off.) Developers and network admins will appreciate the long-awaited merge of MU and WordPress, creating the new multi-site functionality which makes it possible to run one blog or ten million from the same installation. As a user, you will love the new lighter interface, the contextual help on every screen, the 1,217 bug fixes and feature enhancements, bulk updates so you can upgrade 15 plugins at once with a single click, and blah blah blah just watch the video.

If your website at OrangeCat runs on WordPress, you can upgrade immediately using the upgrade button in your admin dashboard. If you’d rather have us install the latest version and upgrade your database for you, just file a ticket at Orange Cat Support and tell us which website you’d like upgraded to WordPress 3.0.

IMPORTANT – Please note that some older themes that haven’t been updates may not support all of the features of WordPress 3.0. We haven’t run into any major conflicts with older themes, but be sure to back up your database and files before upgrading in case the older version needs to be restored.
