wordpress 2.7 preview (pic)

[fris]

Quite an improvement to the backend, a lot of ajax in it.

2.7 beta1 is out now to try.

sorry for the big pic

Looks good but what's wrong with previous versions?

[AnalProbe]

Never use beta versions in a production environment... nice for testing though...

How do they apply the Ajax ? User or end-userlevel ?

looks good, gonna have to test it out

Why don't they just work on security. The first versions were plenty functional. Do they really need these updates every couple weeks?

they have added a good # of features in the newer versions and the gui is much nicer

couldnt agree with you more

They are ruining it, it's becoming too bloated with too many features...

[crockett]

Does it fuck up templates or plugins, or is it just a admin theme change?

Luckily my host has a one click button to upgrade, but still, it can take a while with tons of domains, I cant imagine the people that do this stuff manually.

alot of these features are nice, like the auto sitemaps, but this... "17. Template tags to do everything the custom gallery on ma.tt does" , is actually pretty cool. Though its 1 additional click before potentially clicking the sponsored link if provided, its still a neat feature.

Nice pic. I'm waiting for WP 2.7 too!

[jollyperv]

They need to stop stuffing random useless bullshit in these new versions and come up with a rock solid and stupidly simple way to upgrade. This once a week bullshit is getting old.

[kmanrox]

i've been using trunk for quite some time and i like where they're going with it.. they waited until the last few revisions to make the pretty menus.. a few weeks ago it was really klunky

[Antonio]

it becomes just like firefox, I get updates almost every time I launch it

[pamon]

nice adds. wonder when the launch is gonna be?

[Bojangles]

Nice stuff.

[beta-tester]

yep, it'll be amazing piece of software!
