    I’ve tried the automated method, and it’s failed three time. I may wait a bit and try later….

  5. Automatic upgrade seems to be working fine here.

  6. Automatic upgrades worked fine for me on several sites, all on the same server, up until 2.8.6 then not. Something has changed though I don’t know what. I’m guessing a server setting.

    If anyone comes across a possible answer, I’d be happy to hear it.

  7. Auto-upgrade worked fine.

    One question though; is “site admin” > “upgrade” obsolete? I see that both of my two blogs (one BuddyPress, one not) on this MUWP install went to 2.8.6 without using “You can upgrade all the blogs on your site…”

    Oh, and thanks! (much)

    • That upgrade message was necessary in the last upgrade because it removed slashes from blog options and site options tables. It’s done now so no need for it the message!

      It’s not obsolete though as sometimes blogs do need to be upgraded.
