Drupal 6.26, which fixes known bugs (no security issues) is also available for download.
Upgrading your existing Drupal 7 and 6 sites is strongly recommended. There are no new features in these releases. For more information about the Drupal 7.x release series, consult the Drupal 7.0 release announcement, more information on the 6.x releases can be found in the Drupal 6.0 release announcement. Drupal 5 is no longer maintained, upgrading to Drupal 7 is recommended.
Drupal 7.13 only includes fixes for security issues. Drupal 7.14 also includes bugfixes. The full list of changes between the 7.12 and 7.14 releases can be found by reading the 7.14 release notes. A complete list of all bug fixes in the stable 7.x branch can be found in the git commit log.

Drupal 7.13 were released in response to the discovery of security vulnerabilities. Details can be found in the official security advisory:
To fix the security problems, please upgrade to Drupal 7.1

We made two versions of Drupal 7 available, so you can choose to only include security fixes (Drupal 7.13) or security fixes and bugfixes (Drupal 7.14). You can choose your preferred version. We are trying to make it easier and quicker to roll out security updates by making security-only releases available as well as ones with bugfixes included. We hope this helps you roll out the fixes as soon as possible. Read more details in the handbook.
- #1558548: Notice: Undefined index: default_image in image_field_prepare_view() - Upgrading from Drupal 7.x to Drupal 7.14 will yield a harmless but annoying PHP notice. Patch has been committed to 7.x-dev, and will be available in 7.15. A workaround in the meantime is visiting the field settings page and saving.
- #1541792: Enable dynamic allowed list values function with additional context - This issue introduced an more context to hook_options_list(). However, because Entity API was calling this hook directly it causes errors such as Warning: Missing argument 2 for taxonomy_options_list() in taxonomy_options_list() (line 1375 of modules/taxonomy/taxonomy.module).. Fixed in Entity API module at #1556192: Incorrect invocation of hook_options_list().
- #1171866: Change notice for: Enforced fetching of fields/columns in lowercase breaks third-party integration - This issue accidentally introduced an API change that affected both Migrate and Backup and Migrate modules. Solution for Migrate is to rename tables in scripts back to their proper names. Solution for Backup and Migrate is at #1576812: Could not complete the backup.

Just Released: Our Ten New Become A Blogger 2.0 Training Videos

Over the years the world of blogging has changed. WordPress, the blog platform we use and teach in our videos, has updated many times. Tools change, layouts change, even what makes a good blog changes. All this means our videos became somewhat out of date.
Today I am proud to announce that we have a completely revamped our ten training videos, which you can access right now for free. You only need to opt-in to our Become A Blogger 2.0 Email Newsletter, confirm your subscription, then we will send you a login to access the videos.
You can begin the sign-up process right here –
Brand New Become A Blogger 2.0 Videos
When you watch these videos you will notice someone new is presenting. His name is Leslie Samuel, the same Leslie who has a column here on EJ and has been a long time online friend and student of my programs.

Leslie is, to say the least, quite brilliant. He also possesses something that I have to admit I am a bit jealous of – a ridiculous amount of enthusiasm.
Leslie is our new partner in Become A Blogger 2.0, and the primary teacher. He’s perfect for this job because he has the exact skills needed.
Leslie is a university lecturer by trade, so a very qualified teacher. He is absolutely brilliant at teaching through video (he learned a lot from Gideon’s video training) and he knows how to set up successful blogs (he has studied all my stuff, and owns several successful blogs, including one on Biology – so he’s made money in some non-marketing niches).
I can honestly say, Leslie has done a better job at the new Become A Blogger 2.0 videos than I could do, and I feel very lucky to have him on our team.

You don’t have to take my word for it of course, just take a look at the ten free videos he created to update and replace the ones we made all those years ago.
The ten free videos will teach you every process, using step-by-step presentations, to show you exactly what you need to do to set up your own blog, including the following topics -
Why You Should Use WordPressHow To Get Your Own Domain NameHow To Get A Web HostHow To Install WordPressHow To Upload FilesWhere To Find A Good WordPress ThemeHow To Install WordPress PluginsHow To Create Your First Blog Posts And PagesWhat Is RSS And Why Do You Need ItHow To Use Feedburner
You can access all of these videos after you opt-in here –
Brand New Become A Blogger 2.0 Videos
On that page you will see a brief welcome video first from me and Gideon, with a cameo from Leslie, inviting you to sign up for the videos by entering your name and email. Once you do this, we will send you a confirmation email where you will have to click a link, then you will be sent your login details to access the videos.
Please leave comments to let Leslie, Gideon and myself know what you think of the new updated videos, and feel free to link to any new blogs you set up after following the videos.
