Wordpress 2.3 / Google Sitemap Plugin Bug

By Randy Jensen | Sep 25, 2007

Just upgraded about 10 blogs this morning to Wordpress 2.3. So far it’s another brilliant release from the Wordpress guys. Not sure how they keep doing it, but they do.

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up and hopefully save you some time if you are using the Google Sitemap Plugin (which everyone should be using:). You need to make sure you have the latest version here: http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/google-sitemap-generator.3.0.zip

If you have an older version that is incompatible with WP 2.3, you will get an error whenever you try to post. You will be able to type the post and after you hit submit, you will get the error (or something similar):

WordPress database error: [Table 'mydatabase.wp_post2cat' doesn't exist] SELECT cat_ID AS ID, MAX(post_modified) AS last_mod FROM wp_posts p LEFT JOIN wp_post2cat pc ON p.ID = pc.post_id LEFT JOIN wp_categories c ON pc.category_id = c.cat_ID WHERE post_status = 'publish' GROUP BY cat_ID

The weird part is that the post will actually work and be visible on your blog, but this is obviously a very annoying feature that you will be much better off fixing now. Good Luck!
