WordPress 2.9.0 到2.9.1

之前說過,Wordpress自動升級不可靠,最近Wordpress Release 2.9.0版就是一個例子。
使用Wordpress 2.8.X的閣主,可能都無法透過Wordpress的一鍵更新機制更新Wordpress到2.9.0,因為中文語系統關係,所以都會失敗,我猜應該是對應語片包Wordpress有問題所造成的。

果不其然,一個星期後的今天,Wordpress又推出新版本了,就是2.9.1,一鍵更新是OK的,所以,手邊這些站可以順利更新囉!

WordPress 2.8.1版出現

好不容易,從wordpess 2.7.1升到wordpress 2.8.0,結果今天登入後台,2.8.1更新版出現了,搞不懂,為什麼才幾天就出現更新版。

之前wordpress 2.8.0就有聽說會如期發佈,在我看來,可能是趕著推出,不然wordpress 2.8.1更新版怎麼這麼快就出來了。

我還有好多個wordpress的Blog在2.7.0/2.7.1,更版快速,不知道是不是一件好事。

果不其然,看到官方文件,修正了很多的Bugs,另外,也接到安全性組織的報告,如果裝了某些的Plugin之後,可以看到一些非經授權的內容,這表示,這個版本的安全性做的不夠好,還是趕快修正好了。

WordPress 2.8.1 fixes many bugs and tightens security for plugin administration pages. Core Security Technologies notified us that admin pages added by certain plugins could be viewed by unprivileged users, resulting in information being leaked. Not all plugins are vulnerable to this problem, but we advise upgrading to 2.8.1 to be safe.

What else is new since 2.8? Read through the highlights below, or view all changes since 2.8

  • Certain themes were calling get_categories() in such a way that it would fail in 2.8. 2.8.1 works around this so these themes won’t have to change.
  • Dashboard memory usage is reduced. Some people were running out of memory when loading the dashboard, resulting in an incomplete page.
  • The automatic upgrade no longer accidentally deletes files when cleaning up from a failed upgrade.
  • A problem where the rich text editor wasn’t being loaded due to compression issues has been worked around.
  • Extra security has been put in place to better protect you from plugins that do not do explicit permission checks.
  • Translation of role names fixed.
  • wp_page_menu() defaults to sorting by the user specified menu order rather than the page title.
  • Upload error messages are now correctly reported.
  • Autosave error experienced by some IE users is fixed.
  • Styling glitch in the plugin editor fixed.
  • SSH2 filesystem requirements updated.
  • Switched back to curl as the default transport.
  • Updated the translation library to avoid a problem with mbstring.func_overload.
  • Stricter inline style sanitization.
  • Stricter menu security.
  • Disabled code highlighting due to browser incompatibilities.
  • RTL layout fixes.

免費防毒 ClamWin VS. Avira小紅傘

CalmWin 免費軟體,無廣告,這是我所選擇的原因之一,Avira每次更新就會跳出一個視窗,告訴你個人免費版與專業白金版的差異性。這個我相信很多人都不是很喜歡,網路上有人教,把廣告隱藏的方式,我試過了,無效。

ClamWin有跨平台的好處,可以在Windows 2003 server上面版,不論是STD的版本還是Enterprise企業版都沒有問題。

今天遇到了一個狀況,有一台中毒的電腦,灌了ClamWin下去掃毒,結果毒是有找到,但是掃的時間超久的,我沒有耐心等。

之後我灌了Avira小紅傘,結果,CalmWin被Avira小紅傘「自動」的移除掉了,不知道是因為資源獨佔的關係,還是因為其他考量,不過,未經我同意就自動移除,其實,這不是件很好的事,使用起來還是要小心一點。
