Site Upgrade
Today I decided to upgrade this blog to version 2.7 of wordpress, which I managed to screw up royaly. I somehow managed to accidently delete most of wordpress file including all of the files for the theme and the plugins, thankfully I wasn’t touching the database or shit would have really hit the fan. So after wasting time and finding everything again it is all up and running, nothing seems to be breaking so I’m quite happy at the moment. I also finally took the time to enable OpenID for comments, doing this also turned this blog into an OpenID provider as well which is neat because I’ve been meaning to get myself an OpenID for a while.
So far I’m impressed the wordpress 2.7, the work they have done on the admin area is top notch both functionally and aesthetically. It seems to have a much more professional feel to it than the previous versions did, I’m not sure if this was intentional or not but it is nice.
A quick update on gIDE while I’m at it. The new add file dialog hit trunk earlier this morning it isn’t quite what I wanted but it is an improvement over what was there. As I said earlier the remove file dialog was done away with entirely, just using a message dialog seems to be a lot better. Along with those changes I finally got around to adding a right click pop-up menu to the project browser which allows you to add, remove and soon rename files in the project, I should have done that ages ago but I was lazy. Hopefully the last of the overhauls will be finished this weekend so I can get back to adding new features. To round the project off I thought I had better provide a screenshot of the new add file dialog.
