WordPress 2.9 New Features
WordPress 2.9 should be released near the end of the month and will have a few neat, new features. Below are four new features that may be of most interest to the daily user. Note, there are several others that would be of interest to developers which are not listed here.
- Post Thumbnails: This allows you to automatically add an image to your posts. It’s the same type functionality you see in many custom themes where you can add images using “custom fields”, but this will make it a lot easier for most users.
- Trash Status: A deleted items area allowing you to recover deleted posts, pages, and comments.
- Basic Image Editing: You will be able to edit images in your media library. You can do basic editing like rotate, flip, resize, and crop. This will be a big plus for many users. Now if only there was a way to better organize those uploads (like the ability to create folders (directories) and subfolders) for better file management.
- Media Embeds: Makes it a lot simpler to embed media into your posts and pages.
