Nifty

Several releases ago WordPress introduced the ability to have plugins automatically check for updates. I made it a habit to scan my plugin page once or twice a week to see if I needed to install any of those changes.

With the latest release I don’t have to rely on my memory to go check. At the top of the administration dashboard WordPress now puts a little red bubble with a number indicating how many plugins need to be updated.

This won’t make my writing here any better. I’m not sure that anything can. But, for someone who maintains about a half dozen blogs it is a nifty little feature. Add in the “Update Automatically” feature, and my life is a whole lot easier.
