I have been itching to try out the WordPress Automatic Update Plugin by Techie Buzz since hearing of it for the Weblog Tools Collection WordPress Plugin Competition. With the recent release of WordPress 2.2.3, I had a chance.
All I can say is it worked almost flawlessly. I upgraded this site, FamilyGeek, and 2 development installations (all in under 5 minutes). The only issue to speak of was in the upgrade of FamilyGeek. I made the mistake of selecting the FAlbum caches during the database tables back-up portion of the upgrade. This eventually timed out and I had to start over without selecting those tables. However, I was more than happy with ease of use and the blazingly fast upgrade.
If you haven’t upgraded your WordPress install to 2.2.3 yet give this plugin a try. Big thanks to Keith Dsouza and Ronald Huereca for such a great tool for the WordPress community!
