The Curious Frog

If like me you rather like the Sons of Skadi Extended Live Archive (ELA) plugin, you will have been dismayed to find that as soon as you upgraded your blog to Wordpress 2.3 it promptly fell over. Pages full of MySQL errors when posting, all sorts of badness. Turns out that when the database structure changed for version 2.3 the catagories table amongst others was removed. Unfortunately ELA relied heavily on this so badness abounded. Luckily a bit of digging around revealed this patch which fixes the problem nicely. Overwrite the files, clear the cache and update your options then it’s archivetastic one again
