I will write how to upgrading wordpress from 2.62 to 2.6.3, and in this post i will try to write in english. So, for you, who don’t want to read in english please refers to the indonesian language version. Let’s move.
To upgrade wordpress you need to do some action. And the action is :
1. Do Backup.
- Backup all of your wordpress datebase, you can use database manager from your web server or you can use a plugin from wordpress.
- Backup all of your wordpress files including the file .htaccess. To do this you can use FTP ways from your web hosting server.
- Double Check you backup files. This is most important to do. You must make sure your wordpress files in backup.
2. Deactivate the Plugin
- Deactivate all plugin that you install before.
- Make sure you do the first action. If you not sure, please do that first.
3. Upgrading Process
- Download the new wordpress source from WordPress Official Site. And extract.
- Delete the old wordpress files in the server. But you do not need to delete this file :
wp-config file;
wp-content folder;
.htaccess file–if you have added custom rules to your .htaccess, do not delete it;
Custom Content and/or Plugins–if you have any images or other custom content or Plugins inside the wp-content folder, do NOT delete them.
- Upload the new file. If you did not delete the
wp-contentfolder, you will need to overwrite some files during the upload. - Run The Upgrade Program. Goto /wp-admin location. WordPress will check to see if a database upgrade is necessary, and if it is, it will give you a new link to follow. This link will lead you to run the upgrade script by accessing wp-admin/upgrade.php. You need to follow the instructions on this step.
- Update your configuration back.
- Upload and install you themes and plug in back
- Activate the compatible plugin with the new wordpress.
- Feels Upgraded.
That’s All.
