UPDATE: As of today, 1/24/08, BlueHost customers can update to WordPress 2.3.2 using Fantastico.

WordPress has announced another update. The new version is 2.3.2.

Today’s Lesson

Apparently, the WordPress 2.3.2 update, will fix a bug that can be used to expose your draft posts, plus limits and stops some information leaks in the XML-RPC and APP implementations, etc….

To find out more about this update, please read the section titled “WordPress 2.3.2” on your WordPress dashboard.

I use BlueHost, which includes “Fastastico De Luxe”, to update my WordPress blogs.

Upon checking Fastastico, through my BlueHost account, as of today 12/31/07, Fastastico does not have the information ready for the update.

As soon as Fastastico has the update information, by clicking “Fastastico”, then “WordPress”, the update will be posted in the WordPress section, in red ink.

At that time, by following the simple instructions, you can use Fastastico, and have your WordPress blog, updated to the new 2.3.2 version.

By the way, Fantastico De Luxe, can be found on your BlueHost “C panal”, under “Software/Services”.

Last month when I updated to WordPress 2.3.1, I began receiving an error messages. By reading my post titled: Error Message With Upgrade To WordPress 2.3.1, you can find out what I did to easily correct the problem.

It’s important to keep current on WordPress updates, therefore, make yourself familiar Fantastico, and update your WordPress blog, with ease.

  1. Hi Barbara – I am a total wimp and usually ignore upgrades altogether. But I have bluehost too and this sounds straight forward so I might just give it a try.

  3. I just went to Bluehost to check for the WP upgrade through Fantastico but it wasn’t showing up there yet. I’ll try again later.

    You said “Upon checking Fastastico, through by BlueHost account, as of today 12/31/07, Fastastico does now have the information ready for the update.” Maybe you meant “Fantastico does *not* have the …update”?

  4. Hello Catherine,

    I think it is worth updating, especially when security issues are being corrected. Let me know if you have any questions, and I’ll see if I can answer them.

    Hi Chris,

    Glad I could help! Thanks for visiting my site.

    Debbie,

    Good eye. I corrected the typos. I appreciate you pointing them out to me. Welcome to my blog.

  5. Still don’t see an upgrade option under Fantastico. Has anybody heard about an intended date?

  6. Hi Tracy,

    I just checked too, and they don’t have it ready yet. I think last time it was over a week, before they had it available…and a week is about up.
