After upgraded to 2.5 version. Theres one problem with the new media upload function. When using FIrefox 2 and you try to upload a picture or video, it says in the image uploader “An error occurred in the upload. Please try again later”.
After doing some researches in the official Wordpress forum, I found out I am not alone. This problem was caused by the server apache mod_security has been turned on and blocked the media uploader. If you do not have the permission to turn it off, you can turn in off by file basics by adding the following codes to your .htaccess file.
Obviously you need to change the “You-WOrdpress-Path” to your installation path name such as “Wordpress/” or “/” . This should solved the all the problems.
Wordpress 2.5 full version finally has been released yesterday. It is identical with previous beta release RC1 and RC2. You can go here to read the full release notes.
I have updated this blog to the 2.5 version but you wont notice any different from the front end as most of the changes are in the back end administration panel.
Just after a week the RC1 was released, today wordpress announced the RC2 is out. There is no compatibility issues with themes as nothing has changed in core of the themes. A screencast also posted in the RC2 article showing how to play around with the Wordpress 2.5.
I personally loves the new build in gallery system as it works flawlessly and doesnt required 3rd party plugins with is good for future compatibility.
If you haven got your ps3, may be this bundle is for you. For the almost same price as usual but you get GT5 Prologue for free in the package. This GT5 bundle selling $699.95 AUD compared to normal non-bundle $699.00 AUD. Just 0.95 cents different, you make your choice (However all prices are based on ebgames, you may get better deal in other stores). It will releases on 27 March 2008 which is today, if you planned to get one go and get it real quick as I think it will be sold out soon.
Wordpress has released 2.5 RC1 version for us. No different on the front end but significant changes in the back end admin control panel. Most of the function has been restructured into different sections for better access in mind. Old users may need to spend some time to figure out where is the usual function link located in.
After upgrading to Wordpress 2.5 RC1, one of the plugin called WP-ContactForm crash the “Add media” function in post writing page. If you have the similar problem just deactivate the plugin and look for alternative plugin. http://wp-plugins.net is a good place to start with.

This annoying issue occurs when you try to click the “Save Changes” button in your widgets configuration page, it gone to a blank page or give you an error message “page not found….” . This often caused by the mod_security rule settings in apache httpd.conf. If you do not have access to the httpd configuration file and want to solve this problem, the following tips may help you out.
Create a text file and named it “.htaccess”. Edit it and put the following code inside it:
<IfModule mod_security.c> SecFilterInheritance Off </IfModule>
Save it and then upload it to your wp-admin directory. If your directory have .htaccess in it, just edit it and add in the code and save it. I found this solutions from Wordpress’s forum, hope this solution works for you guys.
