WordPress 2.6 is getting ready to go into beta. I’ve said this beofre, but WordPress to me is just a fantastic program. The design of the UX including the UI, IA, upgrade process, plugin process, html editing, is just world class. I am continually inspired by how a program can work in such a smooth and pleasant way.
Writing a post is fun. I am looking forward to installing 2.6.
I am a huge wordpress fan. Love it!
But there are a couple of “UI” things that were slightly irritating to me after 2.5 and here are the plugins I use to fix ’em (thought you would appreciate them):
On a big honking monitor what a waste to have various composition boxes be hard coded! Here’s the fix…

2.5 made it harder to find the menus and makes me click a lot more than I want to. Hurray for:

And before this plugin a non-techie like me could never upgrade, now press a few buttons and bam! I am on a new version:

WordPress rocks! And the wonderful people who create plugins rock even more!!

I like the Menus one, I am going to install that.
Congrats on the upgrade! I knew you would like it. You probably could use a new theme though. 🙂
