WordPress has released version 3.0, completing over 1200 tickets worth of fixes, enhancements, and new features. Here are just a few of the new features:
- WordPress and WordPress MU have merged, allowing the management of multiple sites (called Multisite) from one WordPress installation.
- New default theme “Twenty Ten” takes full advantage of the current features of WordPress.
- New custom menu management feature, allows creation of custom menus combining posts, pages, categories, tags, and links for use in theme menus or widgets.
- Ability to set the admin username and password during installation.
- Bulk updating of themes with an automatic maintenance mode during the process.
- Improved Custom post types and custom taxonomies including hierarchical (category-style) support
And that is just a taste. Here is a short video to give you a quick overview.
I’ve already deployed 3.0 to nine sites, two of them multisite, and the process took less than an hour. The process of using some of the new features is going to take a bit longer. Enjoy.
