WordPress 2.5 is Great But I Found Some Bugs!

I just upgraded my blog to WordPress 2.5. I really like the new admin interface but I found a few bugs with WordPress 2.5.

1. wp_list_pages function does not excluded sub pages from the exclude list. I posted this WordPress 2.5 wp_list_pages error at the WordPress support forum. I simply copy and pasted the wp_list_pages function code from WordPress 2.3.3 to replace the buggy WordPress 2.5 function.

2. Selecting a page for the home page works fine but it seems to mess up if I try to get the blog posts to show up in a non root folder like “/blog/”. I fixed this by installing the Filosofo home page control plugin, setting the “Front page displays” option to “your latest posts” at “Settings -> Reading”.

Overall, I really like this new WordPress. I feel it is great step forward for WordPress.
