I upgraded a couple of things on the blog today. The first one was upgrading to WordPress 2.0.7. This latest release fixes a few security flaws, and it is expected to be the last release before 2.1. WordPress 2.1 is scheduled to be released before the end of the month, so it won’t be long before I upgrade again. When 2.1 is finally released, I will also be upgrading the rest of the ask-mark.com blogs.
The second upgrade was to my theme. I upgraded to K2 0.9.1. The beta release of K2 that I was running before was pretty good, but the latest release has some cool options that were not available in the beta. A couple of the features are much better implemented in this version, like the live search (it finally works for me), the rolling archives and the customization. I will be adding this theme to the ask-mark.com blogs when I upgrade them to 2.1 in the near future.
One other upgrade that was done recently was done in real life, and not online. On Monday, Chris’s dad and I fixed the toilet in the family room’s bathroom! It’s been just over a year since the chain on the flapper broke. After getting a replacement flapper, it initially would not flush properly. It turns out that the style of flapper that we bought needed to be cut to install correctly. After figuring that out (who would have thought directions would help?) we found that the top valve was leaking. So after another trip to Ace Hardware, we replaced the top valve. Now it still leaks, but I have to go to Ace a third time to get gaskets. Fixing a toilet sucks.
