Overview
Re-Packaged files to update WordPress from version 2.3.1 to 2.3.2

Update is recommended since this version is a security fix for WordPress.

Download the Re-Packaged files here:

Installation Notes
Just “copy and paste” or “upload and overwrite” the following “List of Updated Files” which is included in the re-packaged zip file archive available for download in the above linkie.

Do take note that the database does not need to be updated if one is updating one’s WordPress version from 2.3.1 to 2.3.2 as depicted in the following screenie if one tries to execute the http://domain-name/wp-admin/upgrade.php script.

File differences between 2.3.1 and 2.3.2

Deimos’s Thoughts
At first I find it a bit troublesome that WordPress did not offer update packages, instead they always shove all the files into each release.

Today I realized that they got list out which files were modified / updated, so basically one only needs to update those modified / updated files in order to update their WordPress to the latest version.

From WordPress’s official announcement page, it seems that this release is another security fix. I guess it would be advisable to update as soon as possible aye?

Would not be very pleasant if one’s draft entries are exposed?

Deimos Asks
So, my dear fellow bloggers, have you already updated your WordPress to the lastest version?

    Anyone else here use Fantastico to manage your WordPress installation? I installed WordPress using it and auto-updated to 2.3.1 using it, so I’m afraid to manually install this patch in case it breaks something. It doesn’t look like the Fantastico package for this is ready yet.

    Not sure if the horde of commentators would be coming back in here or not. 👿
    Anyway, if you follow the instructions as explained above, your WordPress should update just fine without any problems. 🙂
    Do you have any questions to ask? 🙂
