Upgrading wordpress shouldn't mess with your template (too much)

It didn't with mine anyway

May depend on how old your template is

Machete_ · 09-08-2009, 09:53 AM

it does if he use a modded version of the default, and he kept it under the name "default"

but who does that?

Darkcrni · 09-08-2009, 09:59 AM

Have a backup?

Fat Panda · 09-08-2009, 10:00 AM

yes it just overwrites the default theme, change the name or GET A REAL FUCKING THEME

Ding, ding, ding! ..And I don't know of an upgrade replacing your default template.

DidierE · 09-08-2009, 12:14 PM

hahaha dumb!
You should first download the wp-content directory, then click the update link and once updating is done, reupload the wp-content.

You didn't follow the instructions now did you. Hope you got backups

Klen · 09-08-2009, 12:19 PM

Now this explain why author of other blog script doesn't wanna use one click update as wordpress do.

Jdoughs · 09-08-2009, 05:27 PM

Yeah,

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.

Grats on fucking up your shit.

fris · 09-08-2009, 05:58 PM

if you are stupid enough to use the default directory for your theme, you deserve it

why? because it shows up people can't read simple instructions?

Young · 09-08-2009, 09:03 PM

The auto update DOES NOT REPLACE YOUR DEFAULT TEMPLATE.

AGAIN

The auto update DOES NOT REPLACE YOUR DEFAULT TEMPLATE.

You obviously changed up some core files that do get replaced during an upgrade. All mods should be done to the theme files and the functions.php file within the themes folder.

nice

Zarathustra · 09-08-2009, 09:31 PM

yeah go easy on the core edits...the only thing you should edit into core is wp super cache and that's it

HookUPcom · 09-08-2009, 10:22 PM

Was it the Word Press upgrade, or a template upgrade? I've upgraded my template by accident and lost all of my custom template work...

Seems odd that a WP upgrade would mess with your template files.

I upgrade wordpress by hand, and skip the theme directory since I use a custom theme

That sucks though, hope you have a backup.
