I have to say (knock-on-wood) that using the WordPress Automatic Update feature is awesome. So far I have experienced no technical difficulties by simply pressing the “Automatically Update” button, then after a few seconds, performs the steps below and “viola!”, it’s done. Why can’t other software be so simple to upgrade?
Downloading update from http://wordpress.org/wordpress-3.0.3.zip…
Unpacking the update…
Verifying the unpacked files…
Installing the latest version…
Upgrading database…
WordPress updated successfully
