Finally it released ? . I guess some of you might grumbling. why Wordpress team is releasing a new version quite often lately. It’s barely 3 months after major release of 2.5, follow by bug fix version on 2.5.1.
I install 2.6 in my blog using Wordpress Automatic Upgrade (WAU) plugin. For me the fully auto mode is not working ? so I choose semi auto mode, skip the DB backup (not recommended if you have tonnes of content) and completed all steps in less than 5 minutes.
There is not much different, except on the plugin and manage posts/pages menu. Both now has check box to select multiple option. Plugins also were now separated between active and inactive plugins. On the Plugin tab menu, there is a small red numbers indicating how many plugin is out dated
On the compatibility issue, Wordpress development team has mentioned that most of the themes and plugins released for 2.5 should be compatible with 2.6. But I found that couple of plugins installed in my blog has a new update released for this version.
If you still uncertain to upgrade or not, or has not yet upgrade even to 2.5.1, perhaps the video and the full features list will help you to decide if you’re going for 2.6 now.
