Wordpress, the blog software that this blog runs on has finally released version 2.5 after six months of code revisions and updates.

I’ve upgraded the blog and everything worked except for one major issue - I could no longer approve or view comments in the admin interface. If you’re having this issue with WP2.5, the fix is to open mysql and type:

create index comment_date_gmt on wp_comments(comment_date_gmt);

Wordpress is dependent on this index for comment display in the interface, and without it, you get blank screens. 

Let me know if you experience problems with 2.5 by commenting on this message.  Enjoy!
