Bug in 2.0.2

    Anyone else have this problem?

    The guid field in the wp-posts table does not get updated after moving a blog to a subdomain and changing the WordPress address and Blog address URIs.

    To duplicate:

    1) Create a blog in domain ‘mysite.com’

    2) Move the blog to ‘subdomain.mysite.com’

    3) Use phpMyAdmin to update the siteurl field in table wp-options.

    4) Log in to the blog and change the Blog address in the options tab.

    5) View the wp-posts table in phpMyAdmin.

    The guid field is not updated and will still show 'http: //mysite.com' as the base URI for each post.

    This results problems such as:

    • existing posts will not delete
    • other undefined behavior

    you’re trying to do something that shouldn’t be done. if you need to move the blog, do a clean install in the new location, then dump or backup the db from the old blog, and import into the new one.
