Wordpress 2.6 Final Release Download
Wordpress fans are happy about the recent final release of Wordpress 2.6. It makes Wordpress not just a blogging application, but more of a CMS (Content Management System). There are many security fixes and some improvements on the new features added in the previous release.
Here is a brief video (about 3 minutes) to show what’s up in the new release:
Here are some of the smaller features and improvements in 2.6:
* Word count! Never guess how many words are in your post anymore.
* Image captions, so you can add sweet captions like Political Ticker does under your images.
* Bulk management of plugins.
* A completely revamped image control to allow for easier inserting, floating, and resizing. It’s now fully integrated with the WYSIWYG.
* Drag-and-drop reordering of Galleries.
* Plugin update notification bubble.
* Customizable default avatars.
* You can now upload media when in full-screen mode.
* Remote publishing via XML-RPC and APP is now secure (off) by default, but you can turn it on easily through the options screen.
* Full SSL support in the core, and the ability to force SSL for security.
* You can now have many thousands of pages or categories with no interface issues.
* Ability to move your wp-config file and wp-content directories to a custom location, for “clean” SVN checkouts.
* Select a range of checkboxes with “shift-click.”
* You can toggle between the Flash uploader and the classic one.
* A number of proactive security enhancements, including cookies and database interactions.
* Stronger better faster versions of TinyMCE, jQuery, and jQuery UI.
* Version 2.6 fixes approximately 194 bugs.source: http://wordpress.org/development/2008/07/wordpress-26-tyner/
