Backup Before Upgrading to WP 2.7
Props to the Design/Development Team and WP Bloggers!
I’d just like to express my deepest respect to the team of designers and developers out there who make Wordpress as “priceless” as it is. Without there ingenuity and love of the platform where would we be? I know where I’d be: with Expression engine or Rails
, but still i love WP above all other platforms for its ease of use and vibrant community.
I’d also like to send a shout out to Lorelle, Jane and OP111.net for there amazing articles, constant contribution and love for the the WP platform. Kudos girls and guys.
