Wordpress 2.5 Sneak Peek

by relaxedguy on March 18, 2008

Wordpress 2.5 preview is in the house.

A customizable dashboard, multi-file upload, built-in galleries, one-click plugin upgrades, tag management, built-in Gravatars, full text feeds, and faster load times sound interesting? Then WordPress 2.5 might be the release for you. It’s been in the oven for a while, and we’re finally ready to open the doors a bit to give you a taste.

Very excited to see that Zeldman et have given the interface a thorough scrub. I use Ecto for posting, because the WP write screen has always left me wanting, but I do poke around the other tabs fairly often. As for the new features, speed and plugin management is good, the rest I already have as plugins, nice to see some key features baked into the core.
