WordPress 1.5-alpha-6

Upgraded to a newer nightly build (2004-12-21 2004-12-23) of Wordpress once again. There was a problem with comments displaying properly. Couldn’t figure it out and hence the fresh install. As it turns out it was due to a buggy wp-comments.php, so the upgrade didn’t help much.

So, I went back to the code repository and dug up a version that worked. I think this will be the last time I upgrade until the beta for 1.3 comes out.

Aside from that, I fixed some CSS (cleared a float) so that KFC would display properly in the permalinks page, and made minor cosmetic changes here and there.

    The people at Wordpress say:

    CVS versions of the codebase represent a snapshot of the code at that moment, and may or may not work at all. Since development of WordPress moves so fast, we are now producing nightly builds from the CVS for your convenience.

    In other words, every night, the Wordpress files being worked on by various people around the world are added to a nightly build. What they were working on might be incomplete and/or have bugs in it. It’s just a “snap shot” of the development. Due to it’s instability / bugginess / incompleteness it can’t be called a final build.

    That’s why it’s safer to stick to the latest stable release, which is WordPress 1.2.2 “Mingus” at the moment. I, on the other hand, am a bit silly, and enjoy spending hours working out why certain things aren’t working. :???:
