In reply to: Problem with editing comments using WP 2.0.3manstraw,
If you’re not experiencing those problems, then you probably don’t have a proper install of WP 2.0.3
The confirmation exists because the nonce (blog/user/action/object/time key) in the form doesn’t match the one on the receiving end. The same problem exists when you edit another WP user’s profile. Both of those are fixed in my plugin by providing versions of the nonce create/verify functions that look for these malformed keys, and correct them, so that they match. It does NOT disable any security measures! It also fixes the slashes bug by stripping the slashes where appropriate. These fixes are the same as the fixes that have gone into
/branches/2.0.3/… I just made it into a plugin form.No news on on when (or if) an updated version of WP will be out, sorry.
Evilzenscientist,
you may want to check out/branches/2.0/from SVN. That has 3 of the 4 fixes that my plugin provides (and will likely get the 4th soon… I’ve provided the patch for it).Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: 2.0.3 shows as 2.0 in Admin footerDon’t know what to say about the version number. That’s bizarre.
An upgrade of the database, however, is required for 2.0.2 to 2.0.3

In reply to: retrieve accidentally “spam” labeled comments?Akismet will do it.
The Paged Comment Editing Plugin will also do it.

In reply to: “Blog Verification” comment… what is that?Looks like probing spam. Sometimes they just do this to see what gets past your spam filters.

In reply to: No cache created by WordPress 2.0.2I wouldn’t enable the cache with WordPress 2.0.2 … you open yourself up to one of the security vulnerabilities that 2.0.3 addresses.

In reply to: Which is the best Captcha plugin?Please consider some of the other options (Bad Behavior 2 and Akismet work well together) before using a CAPTCHA. Visually impaired people will not be able to comment, nor will people with images turned off. And all of your commenters will be inconvenienced.
