WordPress 3.0 is finally released with some great new features.
I just upgraded my site to 3.0 today. The upgrade was smooth, however, I find that export doesn’t work any more. When I try to push export button to download posts xml file locally, I get following error.

Before Simple Tags owner releasing a fix, you can temp workaround this issue by deactivating Simple Tags plugin. After that, you will be able to get exported xml file to save.
