I was glad to find out that Yahoo! web-hosting supported WordPress blog. So I started a WordPress Blog back in 2006. After a while, it seems that Yahoo! no longer keeping up-to-date with WordPress updates. Yahoo!-installed WordPress blogs stuck at version 2.0.2 while newer versions became available. At the time of this posting, 2.3.3 is the latest version of WordPress. I tried upgrading the Yahoo!-installed WordPress, and I could only go up to version 2.0.7, but it was not entirely functional. WP-Cache no longer worked, and some themes are incompatible with version 2.0.x of WordPress.<\/p>\n<p>Now that Yahoo! hosting supports WordPress 2.3.2 for new install, but not for upgrade. This is frustrating.<\/p>\n<p>On March 1st, I started having little problems with the MySql database, and it showed on the WordPress Blog. The more I tried to fix it, the worse it got. To a point, the database was totally corrupted, and I had to restore it to the last good back-up; and that was from October 2007.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I decided to install WordPress myself on Yahoo! hosting, and manage to install version 2.3.3 of the software. I decided to leave <a href=\"http:\/\/37prime.com\/blog\/\" title=\"37primeBlog\">37primeBlog<\/a> as is and continues with <a href=\"http:\/\/37prime.com\/news\/\" title=\"37prime.news\">37prime.news<\/a> from now on. <b>UPDATE<\/b>: 37primeBlog database is now completely corrupted, it is gone now.<\/p>\n<p>The good news is that <a href=\"http:\/\/37prime.com\/news\/\" title=\"37prime.news\">37prime.news<\/a> is now linked to <a href=\"http:\/\/37prime.wordpress.com\/\" title=\"37prime.wordpress.com\">37prime.wordpress.com<\/a>, thanks to all of WordPress API keys. I can now use WordPress.com Global Dashboard for both blogs. I am planning to mirror the postings on both <a href=\"http:\/\/37prime.com\/news\/\" title=\"37prime.news\">37prime.news<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/37prime.wordpress.com\/\" title=\"37prime.wordpress.com\">37prime.wordpress.com<\/a>; just in case there&#8217;s another catastrophic database explosions.<\/p>\n<p>With WordPress 2.3.3, <a href=\"http:\/\/37prime.com\/news\/\" title=\"37prime.news\">37prime.news<\/a> can have more widgets an better customizations. I would like to thank the WordPress.org, WordPress.com, and those who write plug-ins for this wonderful platform.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I started 37prime.com in 2006 and it is hosted by Yahoo! services.
