Bookmarked! Thank you Fris ;)

[Serge Litehead]

did they do anything with adding content right in the post editor? last time i toyed with WP i had to ftp images first then add them in the post editor, anything changed in this process?

[TrashyGirl]

I usually wait a month before doing my upgrades, so the bugs get worked out and the plugin authors have time to upgrade the plugins in use, so nothing breaks. Thanks for the links!

[TeenSluts]

sweeeeet.

Has anyone found a way / is it possible to import a wordpress 2 (non-wu) blog into wordpress 3 multisite?

Cheers

[The Duck]

yes, but its very hacky, I will look into this more today and reply back.

I would recommend installing wordpress locally using xampp, so you can test everything out before going live.

Here is step by step how to install locally on your pc/mac

I've been using the one-click install from Bitnami and it's super simple. I thought I picked up the link initially from a post of yours here but maybe not.

[novanuke]

ya, but upgrading single site to multisite 3.0 requires some extra stuff, like migrating users, etc.

like i said very hacky, going to see about testing it locally or on a dev site
