WordPress 2.1 Released – Hold off upgrading – menus are broken

By · Leave a Comment

I just upgraded to WordPress 2.1 – I would wait a few weeks if you have not already done so.

Clearly there is a LARGE problem with links used to generate menus. WordPress 2.1 replaced wp_get_links with wp_list_bookmarks. The latter is not ready for prime time (or at least the documentation supporting it is not). Menus on this site are currently broken. I had to hard code my main navigation bar in the meantime (it is normally generated dynamically).

I will post more thoughts on 2.1 later.
