Wordpress 2.5 due in 6 hours
It’s been a while since Wordpress 2.3 was released in September but today should see the release of Wordpress 2.5.
I’ll likely be online later tonight to give it a test drive and I’m sure we will see loads of plugins and themes that have been broken by it, but here are some of the new features:
- New admin interface (looks quite neat)
- Widget based dashboard (wooo!)
- Built in Avatar support
- Tag management
- Full text feeds
- Automatic plugin upgrades(!)
- Built in Gallery feature
Just need to get a built in forum and bbPress integration and I’ll be a happy man.. Hopefully that will come in the next release.
Download will be from the usual place.
I might also upgrade Ciarans blog, which went live last night and should be added to your RSS reader!

What happened then? I went look this morning but there is no sign of it.
It’s been delayed by a week it seems
I was up quite late waiting for it too!
lol, we were waiting for it for our a4uawards site, guess the old version will do for now!
You could always be brave and go for the beta or daily build Matt! I think it’s pretty much there just a few bugs to iron out.
