WP 2.0.5 has hit the street

Posted by nitestrike in : Blogging, Minor Ver, Site Changes , trackback

WordPress has been released and am in the process of rolling it out to Dev-N-Progress and see how it shakes out.  

Here are some of the changes coming in WordPress 2.0.5:

  • is_feed() status is preserved when handling 404s
  • manually entering pages greater than the number of pages for a given post now shows the highest numbered page
  • improved security in wp-db-backup plugin
  • user description is no longer HTML-entity converted going into the database
  • fix for rel=”nofollow nofollow” repetition
  • plugins are sorted by plugin name, instead of filename
  • multi-line options in /wp-admin/options.php are preserved
  • the authors dropdown is now sorted by display_name
  • the_meta() properly ignores keys that start with an underscore
  • post meta keys and data are escaped properly on the post screen
  • users are prevented from entering strings that will be interpreted as serialized data when coming out of the database
  • make_clickable() no longer adds links within links
  • error suppression
  • i18n fixes

This is not an exhaustive list… just the important ones, or the ones I thought people would care about.

You can check out these fixes and more in version 2.0.5 Ronan.

Update: I have rolled out WordPress 2.0.5 to Dev-N-Progress and so far so good.
