That’s not the only thing wrong with 2.5.1. Try moving your widgets around. Bet you can drop them into place without them popping off somewhere else. I believe the problem occurred when the dev’s attempted to fix a problem with the Widget page rendering and behavior when using Internet Explorer (figures) and it broke the Widget admin for everyone in the process. The saving grace is if you move one of your widgets and the others make room for it where you wish to drop it, even though it may end up off somewhere else, hitting “Save Changes” will save the rearrangement in the correct positions.

Catherine – If you are running WordPress 2.5, please upgrade to 2.5.1 as it is a security release. If you are running 2.3.3, stay with it until 2.5.2 comes out.

So…does it just make sense to wait to upgrade when 2.5.2 comes out? I have to agree all the upgrading is a bit much. Seriously, does it just make sense to wait?

UGH! I so hate upgrading. I’ve just been at 2.5 for about two weeks now, upgraded yesterday just because I had a minute and now yet another upgrade coming soon.

I’ve wondered before about the attention to detail with WordPress. There are just too many updates on what feels like a constant basis. To make it even more annoying, I so hate that stupid bar at the top of the admin panel with the reminder that it’s time to upgrade. I’d rather do it without the nag and I’m sure I’m not the only one that has upgraded just to get rid of that thing.

What’s even more annoying is that Matt is already talking about the plans for 2.6. I mean, really?
