Recently I upgraded my blog’s engine from WordPress 2.0.7 to WordPress 2.1. The upgrade process went smoothly. Unfortunately, I have a problem with my blogroll. It seems there is a change in WordPress 2.1 that causes my blogroll doesn’t work any more.
I am sorry to all of you whose the sites/blogs listed on S60Tips.com. I have to disable my blogroll at the moment. I hope to resolve the problem as soon as possible (hopefully within the next 24 hours). At least, I have found a posting from another blogger how to fix the problem (see link below).

Update (28-Jan-2007): Problems is solved! Apparently, there is a problem with get_links_list() function. The function has not been deprecated, but somehow it doesn’t work in my theme. After changing get_links_list() to a new function introduced in WordPress 2.1, wp_list_bookmarks(), my blogroll works again.
Update (29-Jan-2007): It looks like the problem is not gone yet. My blogroll sometimes disappears completely. I am still investigating this issue. Is there any WordPress guru here?
Update (31-Jan-2007): It seems the problem has been solved now. What I did is moving my blogroll to the top of side bar (see right side). I have been monitoring my blogroll in the last two days, and it looks okay now. What a strange behavior.

Hey, antony - did you figure out the problem yet? had some issues too over there on Symbian60.mobi that i just seem to have fixed. If you need any help - it may bring me me a place for our symbian-related site in your blogroll

@phantomas: It looks like the problem has gone now. What I did is moving the blogroll to the top of my sidebar. So far so good, but I am still waiting for 1-2 days to see whether this has been really fixed or not.
Btw, how did you solve the problem with your blogroll?
