Comment (by jamescollins):

 Replying to [comment:6 donncha]:
 > jamescollins - a better way to do this is to trap the get_option and
 update_option calls with a filter/action. That's what I tried to do with
 the actions at the end of wpmu-functions.php in the 2.7 branch.

 Yes, I agree that filters would be the best way to avoid modifying core
 files, but I had noticed that {{{ update_site_option() }}} was already
 being used in {{{ wp-includes/update.php }}} in the {{{ wp_version_check()
 }}} function.

 I also hadn't noticed the changes you had checked into the 2.7 branch.


 I have just done some testing with the changes from the 2.7 branch, and
 the options are successfully saved/loaded from the wp_sitemeta table, not
 the wp_x_options table.

 Manually changing the WPMU version back to 2.6.5 correctly displays the
 core update available message, as does changing a plugin's version back.

 > Someone reported back that they didn't work though but I'd like to get
 more feedback before modifying more core files.

 What problems were specifically reported? I can't see any problems with
 the changes.
