You can set up a small cron job to execute this script every week, which is what I’ve done for this blog [...]

WordPress 2.5

Date Arrow  March 30, 2008

I’ve just upgraded this blog to WordPress 2.5 and so far I love it. The only glitch was an easy-to-fix UTF-8 problem but that’s it. Everything’s working.
