Wordpress 2.7 Is Unveiled In All It’s Glory

I had read a few worrying reports about upgrading to wordpress 2.7 so was a little skeptical about how it would go, but I have to tell you I have now upgraded 20 or so blogs and not had one single issue. I upgraded in the normal way, deleted the files as per the wordpress.org site, uploaded all the new files and clicked to upgrade the database. All my plugins are working and all my themes look beautiful.
Bye bye old dashboard. I included a photo just for old times sake 
A wealth of knowledge has been shared about the beauty and speed of the NEW admin panel, but nothing prepares you for what is nothing short of a piece of art. There is at least one redundant plugin that I know of, which is the one that made the admin menu’s have a dropdown style. No longer needed I’m afraid. Bad news for them, but god for us bloggers, the less plugins the better.
I have included some links below that I think you will find interesting, in the mentime I am designing some new themes, long overdue, and will of course ensure they are wordpress 2.7 compatible.
Speaking of themes, I wrote a while ago about wordpress 2.7 having a new theme included, but it is not in my download. I like the theme a lot, so go take a look, if you like it you can download it and use it yourself. I must have been confused about it, I was sure that was what it meant, but maybe it has been included over at wordpress.com.
Have you upgraded yet? How did it go? Let me know by posting a comment.

Image by Vermario via Flickr
It is official, the release of Wordpress 2.7 will see a new theme added as standard.
It is clean and beautiful and you can read all about it, as usual, on the wordpress blog. (it is not the one in the photo)
It is about tile they had a new theme, although I do like the current ones. There are so many to choose from, I don’t know how they did it. If it had been me I would never have been able to choose … lol.
On a separate note, do you facebook? Wordpress do and you can become a fan and chat with other wordpressaholics. I just became a fan and will look into it ore tomorrow. If you do facebook, please feel free to add me as a friend, I like to put faces to names … Kelly Ifrah’s Facebook Profile.

Wordpress Trademarked
I’m not sure if this is a new thing, but from now for sure you cannot use a top level domain nale with wordpress in it. You can own it and have the equivalent ‘wp’ domain that it forwards to and you can also use wordpress in subdomains.
This is a short post today as I think this is an important message to get out. I have two or three domains with wordpress in it, so I will be going through them deciding what to keep and such. You should too.
You can read more about it the official wordpress site.
There are lots of wordpress goodies coming up to with the details of wordpress 2.7 being revealed, so keep your eyes peeled and please comment if you know something I did hear of a new theme being included as standard, but more about that tomorrow …
