    to those who have updated, what's your damage report on life after Ultimate Tag Warrior? As for me, I've used it extensively - tag clouds, link lists with icons before posts, etc. I just want to know if I can get these things back, and looking exactly the same way?

    Also, does 2.3 remove all of the UTW call functions?

    I believe you can import the UTW tags into the native tags featured in 2.3.

    the thing I'm most concerned about is how UTW let you style those links any way you wanted in the admin panel - I doubt those styles will remain applied. Also, you had to use UTW tags to place things on your site, I have those tags all over the place in my code.

    I always do my backup when i'm blogging at my wordpress. Its not really hard to do and i think you need to do the backup every week.

    I am still on 2.2.x. Is 2.3 ready for prime time?

    Actually, I feel that 2.3 is not much worth it currently as most of your external tagging plug-ins would not work and the 2.3 native tagging solution they provide is too basic. However, it shouldnt be much a problem in later days as more and more plugins would be created to be compatible with 2.3 and that also includes other tagging solutions.
