WordPress 2.7 Looks Great

by   |  Posted in Articles  |  3 comments

I just installed WordPress 2.7 on some of my sites and it is such an amazing improvement over version 2.6. The admin interface looks and works so much smoother. It is easier to navigate and customize to look and work exactly how you need it to. Sure it has it’s little quirks here and there, but so far I am totally impressed with this release.

Check out a little video I found on the WordPress site.

If you haven’t yet upgraded, you can do so by going to WordPress.org and downloading version 2.7. You can find easy installation and upgrade instructions here.

    THis is the version when I first tried WP. I prefer this version than the latest version(2.8.4)

    While I do agree that WP 2.7 was a huge improvement over 2.6, these days we’re enjoying WP 3.1 and beyond…and it’s a massive improvement over anything that precedes it. makes you wonder where WordPress will be at in a couple of years time, doesn’t it :)

    They seem to be upgrading every few days at the moment. I am just up to 3.1.2. I like the new admin and password facilities which do seem to speed things up greatly. The new “screen options” facility on the page editor did get me confused for a few minutes though but I am happy to forgive the quirks. Having used WP for three years now I agree that positive progress is being made. Most amazing of all is that this wonderful tool is free!
