Is Your Blog Ready For WordPress 2.5?

Friday, March 14, 2008

Last March 10th, I was busy migrating JaypeeOnline to MediaTemple and at the same time, I was waiting for WordPress 2.5 to be released. I was hoping it would be made available just in time for me to install and use it when I move to my new web host. Later it was announced that the scheduled release was postponed. I wasn't disappointed because I know that the developers wanted to make sure that all the bugs are fixed and issues are addressed before it was released. We all want a fully functional and bug-free version of WordPress, don't we? There's no definite date yet, but the developers are doing their best to have WordPress 2.5 available by next week.Another good thing about the delay is that it gives us users, theme and plugin authors more time to prepare. Here are the changes in WordPress 2.5 that could affect the performance and functionality of some plugins:Admin Menu Changes Admin Screens Activation Global Scope Hook Changed: restrict_manage_posts TinyMCE Upgrade to Version 3For a more detailed description on these changes, check out this document on Migrating Plugins and Themes to WordPress 2.5. Also, if you want to check whether the plugins you're currently using are compatible with WordPress 2.5 or not, go over and take a look at the Plugin Compatibility list.
