Downloading and uploading files for Wordpress upgrades takes a little while, and the manual upgrade process can be somewhat tedious. That’s why frequently, Wordpress installations get ignored until they are far out of date.

I ran across a plug-in last night that was absolutely amazing, and I just tried it this morning - It’s called the Wordpress automatic upgrade.

I just upgraded a blog from an older version 2.2, to a new version 2.31 in under three minutes total.

I downloaded the plug-in, uploaded to the plug-ins directory, activated, and then clicked the link inside the description of the plug-in to begin.
