Yes, I've found that if you have old plugins, you have to upgrade them and if no upgrade is available, you have to get rid of them or find a suitable replacement. I think theme and plugin creators are having some difficulty with this version. Hopefully a lot of this will be addressed with WordPress 2.8.1. Making sure your server is running PHP 5 is also really important. I think with some people that could be an issue if they don't want to bother changing hosts. Hi Jesse,

Seems it is very fickle :S Hi Karen, I also had problems with wordpress 2.8, which weirdly was fixed by separating one line of php into two, not adding any spaces or anything different.
