   Hi all,

   I've found these docs about upgrading from 1.2 or 1.5.x :
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Upgrading_WordPress
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Upgrade_1.2_to_1.5

   Is there anything similar for upgrades from 1.0 ? Is there special additionnal steps to pay attention to ?

   For info, I have a working installation on free.fr the french ISP with PHP 4.3.10 and MySQL 4.1.15, only the index.php's XHTML has been customised, files and database backups are ready.

   Thanks for your help,
   Nÿco

   In the old wiki there is a guide for upgrade 0.6 > to 1.2. Maybe it can give you some clues...

   edit.
   I'll try it again:
   upgrade

   Thank you moshu, the upgrade seems to work well except the accents in french.

   If in your earlier version you used an encoding (charset) other than utf-8 which is standard in a WP installation, go to admin > Options > Reading and change it to what it was.

   A more complicated solution would be to export the database, then do a search&replace for those characters, and import it back.

   Ok, I've found your answer in this post :

   Switch back from UTF-8 to iso-8859-1, easy. ;-)

   Thank you very much WordPress team for making everything so easy !

   My upgrade is OK!
