Automatic WordPress Backup
This blog was updated automatically using the automatic WordPress upgrade to version 2.5 from version 2.3.3. I have read others have had varied success with the process. I will not go over the details of installation because it is readily available on the website.
One of the plug-ins I use did not get restarted which was easily done manually. Note the wp-content directory is not upgraded so any themes or plug-ins are not damaged.
One thing AWU does not do is update your local copy. Only the server copy is upgraded. Your local copy can be easily updated by copying the updated files from the server to the local drive.
Having success with 3 upgraded blogs, I will use this plug-in in the future.
