Ugh!!’s Greymatter Honeypot

When I click through to the post to leave a comment, half of it disappears - I hope that’s nto a new feature, too.

Personally, I’m still waiting for a couple of plug-ins to become 2.5 friendly. And with 2.5.1 due in about a month - with a bunch of bug fixes that didn’t make it into the 2.5 release (even though they were known about before release) - I’m thinking it may well be worth waiting.

@Wolfie: No, that’s just that caching on my blog. I published the post half way through, so that’s the first impression the cache got.

It sorts itself out after a bit. Wish I knew how to force it though .. or WHAT is actually caching. I don’t actually have any caching modules installed!

Re 2.5, I haven’t had any problems with any plug-ins at all so far. That’s pretty good for any WP drop!

Upgrading to WP 2.5 broke my WP install entirely! It was a nightmare! Thankfully I’ve managed to save all my posts and comments but had to do an entire new install, which was a shame.

As such I’ve been reinstalling all the plugins I used to use, and so far only your Comment Email Responder one seems to fail. I have left a comment on the plugin page.

I’m glad everything is working for you though. For most people the upgrade seemed painless, I only wish mine had been the same!

@Emz: I haven’t come across any problems with WP 2.5 and that plugin. Are you using the same theme you were before?

After I left my previous comment, I had started to conclude that your plugin was not the problem, that something else was going wonky. I also realised akismet was acting weird too!

Anywho, I’ll leave the details on the plugin page, so that others can read it.

Regarding your question, I originally wasn’t using the same theme I had been before, but I did switch back momentarily to see if that was the problem. If only it had been!

I am now successfully running WP2.5 with your plugin (and everything else I want).

I don’t think the benefit upgrade is quite significant. User experience and ease of use is indeed important, but I believe it’s just a matter of habituation. There’s no upgrade in performance, so I’d rather use 2.3.2 with plugins.

maybe i’m just to lazy to upgrade

Well, I must say that 2.5 has proved to be a substantial boost in terms of my personal productivity. Just the fact that I can upgrade plugins at the touch of a button has made the upgrade worthwhile.

Would recommend the upgrade to anyone
