Just minutes ago, WordPress Version 2.8 was released! As usual, there are a ton of new features, although much of it affects developers and back-end types more than it does designers or casual bloggers/users of the Admin area.
Here are some related links:
- The Codex for v2.8 (Full feature list)
- Plugin Compatibility for 2.8
- Theme Compatibility for 2.8
Here are the biggies in my opinion:
- Admin area for Widgets greatly improved and a new developer API
- More intuitive theme control in Admin (like an “Activate” button), and ability to install new themes directly through Admin.
- Improved speed of Admin and better database performance.
- Taxonomies! (more on this later)
