2.1.2 Upgrade Default Theme

Nothing is changed in the default theme so that won’t be a problem.

The WordPress default theme has changed so you will want to upload the wp-content/themes/default folder. If you have custom changes to the default theme, those changes will need to be reviewed and installed after the upgrade.

Taken from https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Upgrading_WordPress . What exactly? Is it necessary?

Wasn’t that for the 2.1 upgrade?

I’m pretty sure nothing changed from 2.1.1 to 2.1.2.

The affected files were in wp-includes.

So in other words, if the only folder I didn’t replace/overwrite is the wp-content/themes/default folder then I am ok?

And that the quoted instructions in my last post were ultimately for the 2.1 upgrade?
