    Nice links shared bro! I always fail to back up due to time constraint. So might stay with older WP version for a while.

    I assume your upgrade was smooth as you use swift theme ;)

  5. I think one should keep a backup of his site before doing any upgrade to WordPress 3.0, who knows what may happened. I did that when I updated. By the way Swift themes work well with WordPress 3.0 so whose ever theme is not working properly switch to Swift :D
