umm… Ooops?

A while back I upgraded Wordpress without realizing that there was an automated install/upgrade system on my server that I was supposed to use. Yoshi was not amused. It worked but left me unable to easily upgrade again.

So last night I saw that the installer thingy still saw my installation and had an upgrade option. So I backed up some of the files and decided to go for it. And it crashed. Not fully, but it made the K2 theme I like barf up a lung.

So here we are now with the bring old default theme again till I can sort out what happened. Maybe the version of K2 I’m running isn’t compatible with Wordpress 2.3.1. I suppose I’ll have to start there. I also wonder what’s up with all those extra characters in my posts that look like capital A’s wearing tiny hats. Obviously, really horked it up.

edit: Well, it’s not just K2 that’s messed up.  Wordpress is having problems in general.  Anyone know how to create a SQL query to remove all instances of the funny A with a hat?

    the A thing is probably the encoding on the page. I’m pretty sure once you change to your new theme, it will be fixed.
