Wordpress 2.5 - So exciting I can hardly contain myself…

This item was filled under [ Blog Software, Blogging, Social Media, Technology ]878 views
Everyone is probably aware of the new Wordpress update coming soon.

I’m pretty excited, the feature that looks the most promising to me is the automatic plug-in upgrading. To be honest I am getting so tired of upgrading plugins. Of course the One Click Plugin Updater has been a great blessing to help in upgading, but the new autoupgrade feature will be pretty cool.

Technosailor wrote a nice overview of the new Wordpress. You really need to check it out, this isn’t a small overhaul, this is a huge change to what we’re used to.

Some other good features include:

  • New dashboard focused on comments, posts, and incoming links.
  • New beefed up Navigation Menu designed to make life easier, especially for beginners.
  • Apparently there will be fewer options on Write page, and will use ‘extra options’ more extensively.
  • Better management interface, for posts, comments, and pages.
  • An updated time-stamping mechanism.
  • Flash Video Uploader (Who needs Youtube now?)
  • Improved Visual Editor.
  • Also a change to the widget functions has been discussed.

Of course the best way to see the new software is check it out on your own. You can download it here: Wordpress 2.5
