Small Task Grows Into Monster Project
May 5th, 2008Crikey! How in the world did a simple task turn out into a monster project?
During the weekend, I figured I would take a few short minutes to fire up my handy WP Auto Upgrade to upgrade all my sites. I also thought, while I was add it, to do one or two tasks to secure each installation. One of the first steps was to create an inventory of all the sites, each site’s WP version, what is running on every one of them, date of last update/upgrade and who they are hosted with.
Well that sure turned into a mega project. I now am reminded I need to decide once and for all what to do with some of these sites. A few were inherited from my brother and since defunct. Some needed to be moved and traffic re-directed. Some need to be re-freshed.
Not looking forward to the work. On the other hand it also gives me great pleasure to finally look at them now and see clearly what I will do with them. Whereas before, it was the dreaded “I don’t know…” hence the procrastination.
How sweet it is, the Power of Focus

I despise Wordpress upgrades, though I know they’re a necessary evil. When things go smoothly, it’s an irritating process. When they don’t, it can take out the better portion of a day. Sorry to hear your upgrade wasn’t as smooth as you had hoped!
