WordPress 2.6.3 Update Completed

The CWF Game Cast has completed its update from its 2.6.2 version of WordPress to 2.6.3. Why do this, you may ask. Instead of trying to explain it all to you, the WordPress people did a great job of it already.

Please read WordPress 2.6.3 at the official WordPress blog. That explains all the reasons why we are updating.

The upgrade was performed using the automatic upgrade plugin making this easy as bulls-eying womp rats on Tatooine. We even updated our Woopra plugin version 1.4.0.3 and finished everything in less than 5 minutes. Version 2.6.3 fixes a security hole with Snoopy, which is used by WordPress.

Couple this with our previous installation and activation of Gears and we arrive at speedier blogging. If you have a user account and use either Internet Explorer or Firefox please do the following. Sign into your account. Go to Site Admin. At the top right of the screen you’ll see your username, Log Out, Help, Forums, and Turbo. Click on Turbo and then install and activate Gears. If you are on a dial-up connection (i.e. AOL) you’ll receive a speedier user experience on the blog.
