    @Paul: bingo, that's the error. MySQL < 5, right?

    I'll try the workaround on your site in a snap.

    found this on the dreamhost wiki

    http://wiki.dreamhost.com/WordPress

    International Website Issues

    If you are developing a foreign language website using wordpress you would want to make sure that wordpress is setup to use UTF-8 encoding on the page WordPress > Options > Reading page.

    Also because dreamhost's default mysql client does not use UTF-8 encoding you will need to modify the wp-include/wp-db.php to include this line

    $this->query("SET NAMES UTF8");

    then they provide this link
    http://hostreviewz.com/international-websites-utf-8-encoding-with-wordpress/

    Denis the above error message only appears when the simple forum plugin is activated.

    grrr, still havent heard back from dreamhost.

    this line:

    $this->query("SET NAMES UTF8");

    was added into WP in 2.5

    I'm guessing simple forum turns wpdb error reporting on, which is fine for you and I, but horrible for many others -- who then get scared when they upgrade and see errors all over because they haven't upgraded their DB yet. :P

    @Paul: Mike was experiencing the bookmark me issue as well with beta-10, but says it works as expected on his end with the latest beta (needs to flush the cache though)

    Ok, really minor. When I click on the dashboard link (upper left corner) from one of the other admin screens I get a blank page or at least a page with no dashboard info.
    This is not something that would matter to me since I rarely check the dashboard anyway and use the SP admin bar to go directly to what I want to do. maybe it is a WP problem?

    Hi,

    Just upgraded to beta 14. Seems fine so far, except how do I hide(not show) sitemap and disclaimer page at sidebar.
    I did unchecked the sitemap and disclaimer page at the edit page. But still show when view page.

    Use to be able to enter page id (to exclude) in the Silo Page Widget with the earlier version.

    Thanks
    BenJen

    @ Steve: please whisper me your full site details so I can give it a try. I'd like to verify there isn't any wizard bug.

    @ BenJen:

    to exclude a page, hop to the editor, and check "Exclude this entry from automatically generated lists", which you'll find under "this page in widgets"

    Error creating Posts or editing drafts.

    I've upgraded 3 blogs to Beta 14 and 2 have problems with writing posts, I can't select between HTML and Visual. all 3 are on the same server so it's strange that 1 works

    the error that I.E gives is below Firefox doesn't work either..

    Line: 450

    @James: seems I fixed it.

    @Exmachina: likely an upload issue. note that in 5.5, you can reinstall, under wizards / upgrade.

    I just want to applaud your efforts Denis.
    From Beta 5 to Beta 14 in about 4-5 days.That is an amazing amount of work.
    Now if Microsoft could get Vista out of Beta 1 they might have something useful. :)

    RC-1 is on its way this evening. I've added a few more tweaks, in particular to make tinymce work on servers with gzip compression turned on in an odd way, and a notice when a new version of sem pro is available.

    We've weeded out all of the bugs I was worried about, and nothing of real importance was reported today, so I think we're good to go now.

    Two known issues remain. Both are IE6-only:

    • Multi-Widgets get removed when edit gets clicked, if they weren't initially loaded in the sidebar
    • Large widgets do not display

    Both have trac.wordpress.org tickets opened, but aren't getting much attention. So I suspect the answer/fix will be to prompt IE6 users to upgrade to IE7 or FF.

    Thanks for testing everyone, this piece of software would be going nowhere without you!

    looks like we're going to have a beta-15 after all. there is a docs bug, from the looks of it, and some more tweaking that needs testing before this is RC material.
