Comments on: WordPress Upgrade http://robwhitehouse.com/blogging/wordpress-upgrade/ A bunch of random notes from working in IT Wed, 08 Sep 2010 09:54:29 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Rob http://robwhitehouse.com/blogging/wordpress-upgrade/comment-page-1/#comment-19 Rob Fri, 26 Jan 2007 20:50:09 +0000 http://robwhitehouse.com/software/wordpress-upgrade/#comment-19 Not a problem; you've done so much hard work on a really nice theme, all I did was change a single line of code! Also thanks for the pointer about the new version of your theme, I'll definitely check it out. Have also changed the links.php template again but only a decent fix for myself - Wordpress 2.1 has the wp_list_bookmarks() function so have utilised this to get the descriptions back as well. My usage: <code>wp_list_bookmarks('show_description=1&between=<br />')</code> but this only works on Wordpress 2.1. Don't know anything about themes but I'm sure there must be a way to return the Wordpress version and output certain code based on this - e.g. use deprecated code for older versions and new stuff for new versions, allowing the theme to look consistent regardless of the Wordpress version.

Really easy to fix; I just looked in the new Default template included with Wordpress 2.1 and there's a really, really easy PHP tag to fix this:<code><?php get_links_list(); ?></code>So that's great!
