Hurrah! First post written on the new WP 2.1, code named Ella. It has some pretty cool improvements and as you can see, vSlider 2.1 is still working perfectly
Had a bit of a trouble with some of the plugins though… word of advice - check carefully if the plugins you are using are compatible with this new release before upgrading.

And don’t forget the previous post! The vSlider RFI is still ongoing…

If I can see correctly at your page the Gallery plugin works correctly with Word Press 2.1

Yep, so for I haven’t noticed any problems with WPG2. According to the plugin’s site, there seems to be an issue with the TinyMCE editor, but since I’m not using it, no probs here.

I to have made the upgrade which was painless using Gentoo Linux. I did expect possible plugin problems, but none developed so I’m happy.

Just upgraded to new wordpress version Ella but the events category in the sidebar now gives up the 404 error page. Any ideas?

George - I’ve had some issues with Tag Warrior (couldn’t get the /tag/ URLs to work), but finally solved it with several updates of permalinks. I guess it had to do with the .htaccess. The Download Manager also gave some problems in a test installation of WordPress I have, but worked fine when I did it on this site… I think everything else was fine.

Joe - that’s indeed strange. Have you tried updating the permalinks? Or even rename the category.

I tried resetting permalinks and renaming the Events category but that didn’t work either. Any ideas would be most appreciated. I also know of another site that is having the same issue with Events category after upgrading to Wordpress 2.1.
