Plugins Thing / WP2.6

  • Just upgraded my blog to 2.6 this morning and have been poking around looking for the changes. One thing I’ve noticed is a little quote balloon thing over my Plugins link with the number 2 in it. I originally thought it meant I had 2 plugins that needed to be updated, but I have since removed those two plugins (didn’t use/want them any more), but this 2 remains.

    see what I’m talking about here

    Any ideas what this means?

    wow, thanks for the overwhelming response! Seriously!! I really appreciate all the help.

    Well I have no idea what happened, b/c I didn’t change anything on my blog; but today the number showed 1 instead of the 2 previously, and it turned out there actually was a plugin with an update. And the automatic update actually worked for the first time since I’ve been using WP (all of a month now?). Sweet! And the 1 went away after the update.

    OK, whatever! ??

    WordPress only checks the updates max of once every 12 hours, or after you do an automated update of a plugin. So when you remove a plugin that needs an update, the number won’t get fixed for at least 12 hours, when it notices that you don’t have that plugin anymore and so can’t update it.
