A beta version of WordPress MU 2.7, the multi blog version of WordPress that runs on such sites as WordPress.com has just been uploaded and is available here.
This is quite a stable release and has been tested by many but it’s not the final 2.7 release so there are probably bugs we haven’t found yet. Don’t put it into production just yet, but if you’re working on a new site, you’re better off using this rather than 2.6.5 as the final WordPress MU 2.7 will be along soon.
Check the timeline for more info, there are still plenty of open tickets and keep an eye on the forums and please help out if you can.
I also want to extend a big thank you to everyone who has helped with this release, be it entering tickets, updating them, creating patches, or helping out on the forums and of course the WordPress community. This software wouldn’t be where it is today without you.
I installed this beta 2.7 and now when I want to update to the stable 2.7 It doesnt wotk, the link from where the beta is tryinfg to update is: http://mu.wordpress.org/nightly-builds/wordpress-mu-latest.zip doesnt work
what should I do?
JUan – that’s expected, the updater doesn’t work in the beta, it should update to 2.7.1 whenever that comes out though.
ahhhhh, haha ok, thanks Donnacha, so, how do i update it manually?
Working for a good cause with my website so hope I’m not being terribly offensive by asking for help here. Startup nonprofit aimed at awareness of mental health trying to run a news blog and so damn green I can’t figure out how to automatically permalink title. Anyone point me in the right direction for help and I’ll gladly let you cut in front of me at the pearly gates … David
