My Top 3 |

First of all, if you have a functioning brain, please do not use Yahoo hosting. It may seem easy but it is neither cheap nor easy to use, particularly if you want to use Wordpress to blog. There are so many hosting companies that are so much better.
Now if you are one of those that are stuck with Yahoo (like me who purchased this blog and could not transfer to another host because Yahoo just makes it nearly impossible), try not to upgrade your Wordpress program. For reasons only the smartypants at Yahoo know, they choose to run outdated versions of Wordpress that not only deprives its customers of new functionalities offered by Wordpress but also exposes them to security flaws.
Upgrading Wordpress on your own can cause a major disaster because some of the software used by Yahoo is incompatible with latest versions of Wordpress causing major disruptions.
Now if you do want to upgrade (or as in my case, who upgraded and then realized that the permalinks were no longer directing properly because most likely you are using Yahoo customizable permalink plugin), go ahead and do it, but then try this, as wonderfully explained here.
1. Download this plugin.
2. Upload it to your plugin folder and then activate.
Hopefully everything should work great.
