Upgrade WordPress 2.2 to 2.2.1 – List Of Changed Files
I have received several emails as result of my post on upgrading WordPress to latest version 2.2.1. As I have mentioned in my previous post – in my experience of upgrading live blog from version 2.2 to the latest I didn’t have to update database and all changes appears to be related directly to code within files.
Obviously it raises simple question – if no database upgrade required – would it be possible to simply upload modified files to address issues and implement the fixes? I don’t know for 100% but as a technical person I simply had to investigate. What you see here is a list of files that I have found to be modified and different between 2 releases: wordpress-2.2.zip and wordpress-2.2.1.zip. I have verified that files actually have changes within code and while in some cases it is simple fixes, in some it looks like actual code modifications.
Before you proceed and take me up on my word, I want to remove any responsibility from myself, as I have not tested it. This is simply a list of every file changed between releases and simply updating those MIGHT provide you with everything you need but if you decide to go this route – you are responsible for your own blog. In my case update was a simple overwrite of the files but in case with both of my blogs I did upgrade of entire system.
But enough disclaimers and here is the list of changed files:
