WordPress 2.0 is offical
wordpress.org — I just downloaded the newest svn build of wordpress and they just changed the version to 2.0. Now they just have to reupload wordpress.org
- 911 diggs
- digg it
- darkfate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0the version.php file was checked in at 3:15:06 PM EST. Its only been 15 minutes so probably at 3:45-4 the site should be back
- zjuzjb, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0saa
- Fresno30, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Still down over here
- darkfate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0it'll be up soon. i already put it up on a blog and said that we were one of the first ones to have the 2.0 final up!
- darkfate, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0gah its killing me, they probably had so many people going on the site that it slowed down
- joshpape, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0so where you get the final file from? why not give a link to that?
no digg - mrslick, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The site is not up...this must be a version of the beta.
- darkfate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0because you need svn to get it and by the time most people figure out how to work it the offical package would already be released.
- joshpape, on 10/12/2007, -2/+06 people have dugg this! what are they digging?
- joshpape, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0what a load of bs
- darkfate, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0and no mr slick, the comment read pop the champagne and the version.php had 2.0 in it. the beta version have all gone through, it was in RC3.
- darkfate, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0i had a feel some people would say that but im just informing you that the offical build is out there and if you don't have svn you will have to wait a couple more minutes
- covaro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0For those that need information regarding SVN access here is google's cache of the page:

Hope this helps.- XR22, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0http://3couleurs.blogspot.com

----
Modified : /trunk/wp-includes/version.php - darkfate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0it changed from
$wp_version = '2.0-RC3';
to
$wp_version = '2.0';
thats not the whole file but thats the important part - covaro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Site is back up with a spiffy redesign as well.
- darkfate, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0finally
- khaled, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Still "Switching servers, please check back in about a half hour. Thanks! — Matt"
Guess I will digg this one, most replies and diggs :) - darkfate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0its up, just delete your cache. and reload the site :)
- mrslick, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0make sure that you are pointing to http://www.Wordpress.org and not just http://wordpress.org
- darkfate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0both work for me
- tpower, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i think its coming and going - it was up, but then it seems to have gone back down momentarily...
- darkfate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0pages are still coming online(mostly the forums)
- covaro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I've upgraded... though I did find a pretty nasty bug. The index.php that is included now does not work if your blog index is located somewhere besides the wordpress directory. Quick fix, but still annoying, don't remember having this issue with prior versions:
Original Line:
require('./wp-blog-header.php');
Modified Line:
require('./insertwordpressdirectoryhere/wp-blog-header.php');
Kind of a pain since my Wordpress installation is in a sub directory of my website, but I can deal with fixing a little issue. Anyway, have fun with Version 2.0. - darkfate, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0well they'll get everything sorted out. they only account upgrades from a clean 1.5.2 install. if you still cant access it heres a screen i uploaded:

- davereid20, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Big links on the Wordpress download page are correct:
http://wordpress.org/latest.zip (ZIP)
http://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz (TAR/GZ) - imranidris, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Let's get this to the front page guys!
- paintist, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0So does this mean that people using the invite blogs on www.wordpress.com get to use the new wordpress in their online blogs? Aka, people who ahve http://xyz.wordpress.com/ blogs.
- gongus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I thought wordpress.com already had 2.0 running for their users?
- forteller, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Finally this reaches the front page!
paintist: I'm very sure they will, after all, Matt Mullenweg is the man behind both services. But I have no idea when it will get updated, though - whalesalad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Lemme clear some crap up...
Wordpress.com accounts have been using a seperate version of Wordpress than the one available for download. We can pretty much say they have been guinea pigs. They are using something very similar to WP2.0 but it has special modifications.
The one on the SVN servers has been constantly updated, and is WP2.0.
I guess now, it is a final version of WP 2.0. The wp2.0 files arent on the main wordpress.org servers yet for download, I would assume Matt is still getting a few things settled in preparation for the massive ammount of people who are going to download the new version.
So sit tight everyone, WP2.0 will be making its way to the public eye very soon. - supernova17, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Dang, gotta wait till my host upates their WP in cpanel.
Too lazy :) - supernova17, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0updates
- superwick, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0@uscfan:
Sure it is (2.0 available at wordpress.org)... the download links here downloads wordpress-2.0:
http://new.wordpress.org/download/
yeah that's a temp URL but it's there. - whalesalad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Thanks for the link superwick, ubersauce!
- whalesalad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Geez I am getting 2.5kbps on the download. Lotta people must be dloading that file, dang.
- MAG1CO, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Thats tight but Im using k2 and stuff so i cant be assed with the upgrade hassle right now,
- kinderstod, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1What are the advantages of WP over, say, Movable Type? I've found MT to be one of the best "blog" platforms out there, especially since you have support and all with it. The only downside to MT is the static pages, rebuilding your content is a pain
- Gaby, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It's weird as http://trac.wordpress.org/milestone/2.0 states that 19 bugs are pending!
Anyway, page is not accessible anymore from wordpress trac... - TJ229ER, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It's up and installed on my server. Runs fine for me.
