Within one year of releasing WordPress 2.8, they are ready again to rock us with some cool, much needed features in WordPress 2.9.
WordPress Feature 1: Image Editor
In the current version, upload new image looks like this image
In WordPress 2.9 this will be like this one:
Previously you had to use a image editor to edit images and then upload it or you had to use a plugin but now with WordPress 2.9 images uploader you can do the following three functions:
- you can edit the pictures.
- you can customize the URL of the image
- you can directly move the into the Recycle Bin or Trash it.
The image editor offers the following features
- Image cropping functionality
- Scale Full Size Image
- Clock and anticlockwise rotation
- An undo and redo button
- Trash the image
You can also customize the URL of the image, trash the image and if some thing is wrong ‘undo’ and start anew.
WordPress Feature 2: Recycle Bin Feature
Now you can move a page, post , comment or even a media to trash. So that if you need it in future you can just restore it.
Some screen-shots:
Note that the Recycle Bin’s article will be deleted after a period of time you save, this time is by default a month, which is 30 days.So, if you want to restore it do it before the dead line.You can change the time period by modifying the wp-config.php.
WordPress Features 3: excerpt Filters
The wordpress2.9 version you will be able to add two new filters to adjust the excerpt (the_excerpt ()) summary by adding the following code in the function.php file
Well ,apart from these feature I think we will appreciate some security and performance update in the next release but in the end I loved it..
