			So WordPress 2.5 has been out for a few weeks now, have you taken the plunge and upgraded yet? Well if you still haven’t there’s a useful plugin that will do it for you automatically. If you use a lot of plugins it’s always a good idea to test them on a separate installation. Failing that Backup, Backup & Backup your blog before proceeding.


WordPress Automatic Upgrade Plugin


Or if you prefer to do it manually there’s a simple guide here:


Upgrade Guide


If you didn’t backup and are now experiencing problems/issues with your install try the support forums:


Support Forums


Finally if your feeling brave you might want to consider switching to the SVN. WP Core is currently running a version of 2.6-bleeding.


Subversion Access

			Great for users wanting a unique theme but lacking the knowledge in coding or design skills, I have compiled a list of all the WordPress Theme Generators I could find:


WP Pal

Theme Generator


WP Pal looks very impressive unlike the others this one has multiple theme layouts to choose from that you can use as your base theme to begin customising. With options of suggesting additional themes.


WP Theme Gen

WP Theme Gen


Possibly the first WP Theme Generator, comes with a simple base theme to get started with many options for customising, well laid out and very easy to follow.


WordPress Theme Gen

This one is a stand alone application for Windows, I personally haven’t tried it yet, but it looks very interesting.


Out of the above I’m most impressed by WP Pal, in the fact you can choose from multiple layouts for your base theme, although limited at the moment, once they get the ball rolling this could be an invaluable source for creating quick and easy custom themes for the novice.
