If you’ve recently upgraded to WordPress 3.0 and have had challenges with either the theme or plugin you’re using, you may want to temporarily downgrade. Here are the steps you can take if you have to downgrade:
- Create a full backup of your hosted WordPress files on your local system
- Download 2.9.2 from http://wordpress.org/download/release-archive/
Direct Link – http://wordpress.org/wordpress-2.9.2.zip - Transfer all files from extracted 2.9.2 files to hosted WordPress installation
Includes wp-admin, wp-content, wp-includes folders as well as the various .php files - Login to WordPress Admin Site
- You will be prompted to upgrade the database. Click on Yes to upgrade.
That should bring you back to WordPress 2.9.2. Good Luck!
