    Just looking at my cPanel, and clicked through Fantistico Deluxe to set up Wordpress. Shocked to see they are only offerring 2.3.3. What should I do?

    Should I just get 2.5.1 from wordpress.org? Thanks!

    The first thing to do is to ask this question to the support of BlueHost

    Yea I talked with support at BlueHost through there LiveChat function, which was incredibly fast and easy by the way, and they told me to look in the SimpleScripts area instead of Fantastico and I found it! One-Click Wordpress 2.5 Installation!

    Cool ;)

    Next step will be the update of WordPress on your existing blog

    Simply upload 2.5.1 through the ftp or file manager... FD sucks anyway during an update...

    I shy away from one click installs; always manually upgrade.
