WordPress 2.3.1 available for download

WordPress 2.3.1 has been released, but doesn’t bring any features, just security and bug fixes, as you can read:

  • Tagging support for Windows Live Writer
  • Fixes for a login bug that affected those with a Blog Address different than
    their WordPress Address
  • Faster taxonomy database queries, especially tag intersection queries
  • Link importer fixes

Download WordPress 2.3.1.

  1. I would like to use this soon. Unfortunately, the version of Plesk that we’re running on our servers doesn’t support the latest versions of PHP/MySQL so WordPress 2.1+ isn’t jiving. Too bad because it leaves open vulnerabilities.

  2. Tried the lastest wordpress 2.3.1, nothing fascinating. Same old application with lesser bug. :P

  3. Do let me know if the new version is alright… kinda anxious to know before i download them.

  4. This is something that bothered me quite a long time: how the hell to upgrade and maintain the 55+ blogs.

    I mean every freaking new updated used to create a stream of sweat for me before I tried the

    Word Press Auto Installer and Auto Updater:

  5. I have to agree. Good article. Keep it up ;)

  6. Works fine for me, and yes auto installer is a time saver.

  7. I’ll try this new version. I’ll hope there are less bugs

  8. I had a hard work converting a Geeklog based website to WP 2.2 (i guess), all finished, including modified templates…site was constantly down, because WP is very database-heavy. I tried wp-cache and a lot of apache/php config to optimize.
    Nothing worked, back to old geeklog.

    Well, not good experience to me using wp.

  9. Great Article! I am exciting for the new update for wordpress, but then there are some areas that will need to be fixed. Thanks for the update!

  10. I like the extra security fixes and the auto installer is quite useful (10x for the update!).

  11. heh. Nice. Keep up the good blogging.

  12. THanks.. Great article.. I’ll surely try out this new version. I’ll do hope there are nt going to be any bugs

  13. Worked flaulessly for me, no bugs at all and it worked like a charm with the auto installer, it’s always good when things run smooth.

  14. I heard mixed things about it, so I will wait some time before upgrading.

  15. Waiting for new features then only I will upgrade

  16. Interesting post.
    I will check this latest version.
    Thanks for sharing.

  17. I am currently not updating to this latest version, will there be any kind of risks not doing so ?

  18. @ Guess : No there are no problems now in upgrading because all the plugin developers have upgraded their plugins.

  19. Thanks – I will check this out..are there any risks this time though?

  20. I just came across this entry by accident . . . why didn’t WordPress notify me of this upgrade?!! Thanks for sharing it; otherwise, I would have never known.

  21. I upgraded to the new WP and was surprised to see it fix a couple of bugs on my blog, with “pages” ( not “write a new page,” but links to uploaded files ) being marked private after I published them. The tagging is nice, too…

  22. that’s good I already tried it.

  23. I am waiting for a new Admin-Interface. I think, with the next version of WordPress we will see it!

  24. Thank you for sharing it! Are there any risks?

  25. Hm so much patches for WordPress. It is a really nice software but you have to patch it regullary for being secure…

  26. Good post.
    Definitely some noticeable changes.
    Theres already another one.
    Fixing a few more bugs.
    I need to upgrade actually.

  27. Downloaded… and seems to work better

  28. I am on the way to download. Seems promising.

  29. I have been visiting this site a lot lately, so i thought it is a good idea to show my appreciation with a comment.

    Thanks,
