WordPress 2.7

WordPress 2.7 Release Candidate 1 has been released and it’s a very good looking upgrade. The dashboard is much better laid out, as are all admin pages with the menu now running down a pane on the left of the screen.

It incorporates new functionality but with what I find is still a familiar interface. It’s very clever the way the WordPress team has been able to update the admin side of things without making if feel completely alien. The new icons are great and the look and feel of the admin area is pleasant. You can configure your dashboard to show only the modules that you find useful on the dashboard – that’s a neat feature.

All in all it feels easy to use and shouldn’t be confusing for new users of the system. So if you’re using WordPress, be on the look out for the release of 2.7.
