Wordpress Version 2.0.3 Review - In addition to...
(Page 2 of 6 )
In addition to the 2.0.3 install, you should be aware that some bugs have already been found, and that a plugin will need to be installed to repair those bugs. If you modify any of the files that this patch plugin fixes, you'll need to either merge the changes with the new files or make those changes manually once again. You can find these issues by running a diff to locate changes; if the only changes you find are your own, then you're fine, and otherwise you'll need to merge them manually into the new files.
The short list of what WordPress 2.0.3 fixes includes:
*Small performance enhancements
*Movable Type / Typepad importer fix
*Enclosure (podcasting) fix
*The aforementioned security enhancements (nonces)
One mostly annoying bug shipped with 2.0.3 as well. It gives you an "Are You Sure?" dialog when you edit comments, and adds a backslash before each quotation mark in the post you're editing. Make certain to download the patch.
