It’s been announced on the WordPress blog that the latest version, 2.6, has been released.
At first glance there seem to be some quite cool features that have been added, one small but quite handy one I think is the word count feature which automatically updates as you type. There are some others but I haven’t looked too much into it yet. I might install this on another site to test it out.
Check out the official post for more details on new features and fixes.
As well as being new to making money online, I am also a newbie blogger and I am still in the early experimental stages of using WordPress. For the last few days or so I’ve been playing with WP plugins, and here are 5 great plugins that I think could be very useful for any WordPress site, but especially if you want to monetise your site.
Best of all, of course, is that all of these plugins are absolutely free!
Wordpress 2.5.1 was released yesterday. The release includes bug fixes, performance imporvements and a security fix.
Here’s a list of some of the main changes:
Performance improvements for the Dashboard, Write Post, and Edit Comments pages.
Better performance for those who have many categories
Media Uploader fixes
An upgrade to TinyMCE 3.0.7
Widget Administration fixes
Various usability improvements
Layout fixes for IE
However, I came across this post at XFEP.com which says that 2.5.2 might not be too far because of an issue caused by this latest release, so I think i’ll hold off from upgrading for now.
You can read the full 2.5.1 release post on the Wordpress blog.
