Default How the **** do I update from Wordpress 2.1
My client's client has Wordpress Version 2.1. Does anyone want to give me a step-by-step on how to update this to the newest version?

Bear in mind that I use the one click upgrades, so I really do need a step-by-step kinda deal.

Many many thanks!

When you log onto Wordpress, in the dashboard there should be a link at the top that states you can upgrade. Version 2.9.2 is the current version. It is way at the top, in the yellow area. Click on that and it should download automatically.

Let me know if you don't see that.

Nope, there's nothing like that. I've never seen a dashboard like this one to be honest!

Hmmm....

I checked Wordpress.org for manual upgrade instructions. Perhaps this will help.

Good luck!

Hi,

First read everything you can get your hands on about backing up your current version of wordpress. You are getting ready to update from 2.1 to 2.9 there have been a lot of changes so be prepared for the possibility of losing content, theme changes or data

Good luck
