WordPress 2.6 login problem

I just had a scary few minutes. I upgraded this site to WordPress 2.6 last night and today couldn’t log in; or rather, I could log in but the admin area kept throwing me out.

So for future reference, if this happens to you, rename your “wp-content/plugins” folder to “wp-content/plugins-old” then log in. The upgrade will happen, then you can rename the folder back to “plugins” and it should work.

And to celebrate, here’s what we’re all having for breakfast:
