Post 55 - My WP2.5 Preview Trackback
By BBoyd • Apr 4th, 2008 • Category: Blog, WordPressJust an FYI for the trackbackers.
I’d made a grumpy post last week about how disturbing it was to me that the WP team didn’t meet the publicized release date for 2.5. And, it was; mainly because the WP dev community is so reliable about those kinds of things. But also because I was having a crap day, and in the end, it wasn’t a big enough deal to post and trackback about. I made the post, deleted the content of it about an hour later, and decided even later that day to just delete it altogether…and promptly forgot to do so.
I spent a short time working with the release candidate and was happy to see the public release come out so soon. Despite the many disagreements amongst various WP users, I happen to find the changes refreshing. Many of them accomplish what I’ve been spending hours hacking for on client’s sites…an easier to navigate admin area. After about a week with it on this site, I went to another site I haven’t upgraded yet, and the admin felt so clunky in comparison. And the uploads feature, when one does get it working properly, is really fabulous. I’m looking forward to the next releases improvements to it.
So, if you ended up here cause of my trackback, that’s where it went. I prolly should have just edited it; but, you know…I’m a blonde (and it wasn’t that important).
