Wordpress Upgrade pain in the *ss!

(8:41 pm) Tags: [Site]

Just upgraded from WordPress 1.0.1 to 1.2 on Alex’s recommendation (mass comment editing, for deleting commnet spam), and the upgrade said it succeeded.

Now I can’t log in. WTF!!!

Turns out that the cookies in the browser were preventing me from logging in. Clearing the cookies for Wordpress on my site fixed the problem.

One other bug that I found was in requesting a new password. A new password was sent to me in email, for the user “”, but WordPress did NOT update the database. Anyhoo, I figured it out and everything worked out it the end.

Why can’t everything upgrade as smooth as tasks? ;) This is NOT a rhetorical question.

SCPlugin - subversion contextual menu for OS X

(6:36 pm) Tags: [General]

Just try to install SCPlugin, a Finder contextual menu for Subversion (svn). Works just as well as TortoiseSVN does on Windows, so I am a happy camper.

In case you try to build and install it yourself, the installation file misses one minor point. Once you have installed it, and restarted the Finder, you have to go to its preference pane and turn it on! I would have expected it to be on by default.

Jolly useful though, for those commandline disadvantaged.
