WordPress 2.6 Final Released
Today when I opened my site’s dashboard I saw a notification about updating to WordPress 2.6 and I was surprised as it was released a whole month ahead of its release date, thumbs up to the developers! there have been some new features added to this version along with 194 bug fixes.
I upgraded to the latest version and immediately saw some changes like the dashboard now shows your comments count along with spam comments and unapproved comments, the theme section is now paginated and whenever you click a theme an Ajax based preview page opens up and you can then apply the theme from there, there is a “press this” bookmarklet so that you can start posting quickly, now every time you or someone edit your posts wordpress remembers the changes so that you can restore them later if there is a problem and the plugins page has been redesigned to add inactive plugins and recently active plugins section, WordPress expert has a detailed post about the changes in this release check it out here
here are some screenshots of the visible changes in this release:
