WordPress 2.9 released
The next version of WordPress, 2.9, has been released. It has been named “Carmen” in honor of jazz vocalist Carmen McRae. New features include:
- Global undo/”trash” feature - if you accidentally delete a post or comment you can now retrieve it.
- Built-in image editor - you can crop, edit, rotate, flip, and scale your images.
- Batch plugin update and compatibility checking - update up to 10 plugins at once and check whether your plugins are compatible with new releases of WordPress.
- Easier video embeds - just paste a URL on its own line and have it magically turn it into the proper embed code.
- and more.
