Comments on: Upgraded to WP 2.1 http://www.nitallica.org/2007/01/28/upgraded-to-wp-21/ This is my digital sandbox and proverbial playground. I am a web designer living in Birmingham, Alabama. I'm an avid gamer, a former editor for Addons.Mozilla.Org, and spend a good deal of my time in the WordPress community. I am also an active Soldiers' Angels member and a Community Team Leader for Soldiers' Angels in Alabama. I am all this and much more, but in short I am: a web designer, a geek, a gamer and an aspiring super mom.

Which is fine, if that's all you need/are looking for. When I have a problem with it is that it's changing consumer views of what a website is. Case in point: I got a job offer a while back. A company wanted "a Word Press website." Sounded to me what they were looking for is a CMS so they could add content themselves. They didn't realize a website is one thing and a blog is something different, which is most often a part *of* a website. And yes, I'm ranting again :) Yes, silly girl :)

It's a BLOG, it's BLOGGING software. There seems to be a trend going where some web designers throw together a WP install and call it “a website.” It’s a BLOG, it’s BLOGGING software.

If he's hosting, he should look into WP-MU (multi-user). Rick: Is it generating an error log file on your server? Is the author being any help? I hate that you're having probs. :( “Why would anyone have 50-60 WP installs?”

LOL ... luckily most of my other installs aren't as customized as my personal blog, but it was annoying about the plugins. Luckily, by late last night, the few I had problems with had been updated and new versions released. What about yours, Rick? Are you still having problems with My Link Order?
