Update your wordpress plugins
Posted on January 11, 2008
Recently, I encountered an error after updating my wordpress to its latest version(not really, a version before the latest). An error like “wp_post2cat’ doesn’t exist”. I checked the database and compared my installed wordpress blogs if the others have post2cat table but to my surprise my other blog and this blog don’t have that table and alvin’s blog has. So I googled the error and found out that some plugins are causing this error. I have to disable every plugin and check if it fixes the problem.
Anyways, I’ve already solved the problem. It seems that Simple tags plugins, Asides plugin and other plugins which uses categories would cause this problem. The reason is that newer version of wordpress doesn’t have wp_post2cat table but uses other table name like wp_term.
Everytime you update your wordpress, make sure you check your plugins if it’s compatible with the new version and if it’s not then update your plugins as well.
By the way, this also covers wordpress themes because new version of wordpress uses different template tags.
