‘a security risk’, that’s not good is it? How serious a risk I wonder.
Thanks anyway for the response.
I suggest you install the latest version, and adapt the code in the book accordingly. You can always check up the function reference in the codex to see if it’s still valid.
Okay, that’s probably safest. Hopefully there’s not too much of a difference between the versions.
Cheers!
There are significant differences in functionality and more importantly, as mentioned, security.
You could leave your site much more vulnerable if you don’t upgrade to the latest.
