WordPress 2.5 Update
March 31st, 2008WordPress 2.5 Update
A Little Speedbump
The upgrade to WordPress 2.5 wasn’t quite as painless as it originally appeared. Late last night I realized that the comment moderation page in the admin dashboard was not working. It would say “4 new comments”, but would display them.
After troubleshooing this for a couple hours last night, and then several more today, I found that the comment_date_gmt column in the wp_comments MySQL database table was missing the index. Once I added an index (drop and create) to that column, everything was fine.
So, I’m back to lovin’ WordPress 2.5. Once again, it’s all good.
