I used to use Instant Upgrade but when I used it, while it did work, it didn't do it properly. I found it more straight forward just doing it myself, only more time consuming. It might work now though that I've upgraded and everything is a little more fresh but I'm not sure. :) Brad: Yeah, I’ve already tried it and it didn’t work (errors and such).

I hate to upgrade all my wordpress sites too and up until lately it had seemed like every other day we needed to upgrade to a new version. I was skeptical about the WPAU plugin myself but after trying it I installed it on all of my WP's. You should check out Wordpress Automatic Update plugin.

I guess everything went smoothly! Upgrading is always a frightening experience, indeed, hopefully in the future WordPress will have this auto-update feature that's completely safe...

The thought that you could break your site or lose everything isn't very nice. Thats why backing up is a vital part of any update. Unfortunately, upgrading WordPress is a necessary evil due to security updates etc. Phil: Well, I hope when you do upgrade, that it all goes smoothly! Mike: Good to hear it went smoothly. I hope it goes the same way with akamike! David: It is scary. The thought that you could break your site or lose everything isn’t very nice. Thats why backing up is a vital part of any update.

I'll get akamike upgraded soon. :) I’m behind with my upgrades on akamike, but I upgraded Sausage Roll on Friday which went pretty smoothly apart from me forgetting to include something which broke the index page for a couple of mins.

I didn't realise you were behind me on upgrades, but I am really worried! I'll be setting up a local version of WordPress before I go anywhere with an upgrade of the live site! I’m scared!

I myself don't like the idea of upgrading something as important as your blog - but it looks like you pulled it off with flying colors.
