    Hi Fans!

    I always update wordpress manually by doing the following steps:
    – Backup Files and SQL
    – Download locally the new wordpress files
    – Copy ALL files from the ZIP to the folder via FTP and overwrite ALL
    – Open /wp-admin/upgrade.php

    That worked the last 10 upgrades like a charm.
    What happens EXACTLY when doing the automatic upgrade?
    What happens with files that are not needed anymore?
    What happens to my custom themes?
