getting off development/beta upgrade track

    In response to the call for beta testers,
    I gave it a try. But now I can’t figure out how to get out of the development/beta upgrade track.

    How I tried to get off: I de-activated the WordPress Beta Tester plugin. Somehow I managed to get off automatically nightly upgrades. I was sitting at WP 3.1 RC3. The bottom right corner of the admin screen had a “stay updated” link. I clicked on that and I got “update available”. I updated and now I’m running WP 3.2-bleeding!!! Argh.

    Any thoughts on how to get back to some stable release, and back onto the normal, i.e. non-developmental, upgrade track?

    Got the same problem here and doent know if I can just downgrade to 3.1 RC3.
    The website works fine so far. But still I can’t even find stuff about 3.2 bleeding.
    Can I just download RC3 when its final and released?

    Thanks in advance

    I’m going to try installing WP version 3.0.4, i.e. downgrade to the last general-use release. From what I understand, you need to be careful moving to older WP versions because installing a newer version may make changes to the WP database. Always back up your current database (plus export your content via the WP export for extra protection) before changing anything.

    Here’s some forum discussion on downgrading.

    Having a graceful way to get off the development update track would be nice. Especially when the WP news that appears on everyone’s admin panel encourages users to be beta testers.
