WordPress 2.0.5 released three days ago, while most of the WordPress user are now writing their blog with peace of mind, some of them are having the server 500 error. According to Mark Jaquith, it’s due to the bug that was reported for WordPress 2.1.

Fixing this error is some what easy, for it’s fixable just by installing a plugin, below are the step to fix this error.

1. Download this plugin.
2. Upload it to your WordPress plugins folder.
3. Activate the plugin.

However if you get an error message after logging in to your admin panel and cannot click the Plugins tab, just type “{WPDIR}/wp-admin/plugins.php” into your address bar and press enter, and this should fix the problem.

The moment of truth, WordPress 2.0.5 is finally released about 12 hours ago!! The latest WordPress, coded named Ronan to congratulate Ryan Boren on his new son, awww how nice~~ 😳

There are around 50 bugfixes in this release, and WordPress user is advised to upgrade into this version since there are quite a lot of security fix in this one, and you may go to Mark’s blog to know more about the changes in WordPress 2.0.5.

This is the last version of WordPress 2.0, next the WordPress team will continue to develop the brand new WordPress 2.1.

Update: Just updated to WordPress 2.0.5, so when is your turn? 😉

Got WordPress 2.0.5 RC1 download link from foolswisdom, you may download WordPress 2.0.5 RC1 now, zip and svn also available. But i strongly recommend you all to join the WP Testers mailing list to discuss in case you found any bugs.

Please remember that WordPress 2.0.5 RC1 is till under Release Candidate, mean that there are still minor things to make sure before it’s release to the public, so if you don’t want to take any risk to try Beta software, you may wait until the official release, most probably in 10 days or so.

Saw this on WordPress admin dashboard this morning, WordPress 2.0.5 RC1 is out, but not open to public yet. This isn’t an official release, according to Dougal, WordPress 2.0.5 had change from Beta to Release Candidate, mean that soon it will release to the public.

It’s been almost three months since WordPress 2.0.4 released, the development seem like stopped for quite a long time, i guess most probably is because the team is busy with bbPress, a bulletin board system developed by WordPress team.

For those who want to try out the nightly build, you may join the WP Testers mailing list to get the download link, or you may go WordPress Trac site to have a look on what is new in the next release.
