Update to Wordpress 4.1

[pburtchaell]

Hey @mchung just installed this on Heroku and noticed it is running at version 3.9.1. Are there plans to bump it up to version 4.1?

Not sure if this is recommended, but to update to Version 4.1 (or version 4.1.1 which is the current version), if you simply add a heroku config value WORDPRESS_VERSION, it'll upgrade the wordpress with your next commit push to Wordpress.

$> heroku config:set WORDPRESS_VERSION=4.1.1

Remember, you have to make a new release (i.e. push a new commit to your heroku project) before the upgrade take place. After pushing the new changes, and wordpress updates, you might be prompted to update your Wordpress database when you access the admin page. You might also have to flush your memcache (this can be done from your heroku admin page for your heroku app).

I think you mean:

heroku config:set WORDPRESS_VERSION=4.2.2

You missed an = sign
